Scents at a trailcam...
« on: August 20, 2011, 06:11:09 PM »
So every year about this time I stop getting bulls at my trailcams, basically I stop getting bulls at my saltlicks. I'm wondering if I should try putting some hot cow pee in the area of my trailcameras??
Has anyone tried this? I figure if the bulls aren't coming to the area anyway it couldn't hurt...

Elk need the salt to help digest the fresh greens & grass.  As the grass starts to mature and turn brown, they do not need as much salt.  Seen this many years.  Lots of pics in May, June and even July.  But, as things start to dry up, less activity at the ole salt pile.  If you use the trace mineral salt, it's also good for antler growth.  But, by mid-August they are rubbin that velvet off, and again they don't need as much.

I just put close to 200lbs of apples out and they were completely gone when I came back about 5 days later. Might wanna try that.
