pretty sure they like candy corn and the little Snickers and KitKat bars we'll be handing out on Thursday evening. Worth a try.  :dunno:

I've used apple flavored whole kernel corn in the past and the deer love it.  Never tried it on elk. Get it at Tractor Supply.

One does not hunt in order to kill; on the contrary, one kills in order to have hunted. If one were to present the sportsman with the death of the animal as a gift he would refuse it. What he is after is having to win it, to conquer the surly brute through his own effort and skill with all the extras that this carries with it: the immersion in the countryside, the healthfulness of the exercise, the distraction from his job. ~ Jose Ortega y Gasset

Apples for deer and elk.  I didn't have trouble finding bins of apples available, after I ran out of yard apples.
