So last Sat. I dumped out 50 lbs. of sweet feed (tractor supply) and 100 lbs. corn... The sweet feed I piled in a pile and the corn I spread out all over... Damn deer are picking at the corn all around the sweet feed and not touching the sweet feed... I figured they would go crazy over it... Nope... Prefer the corn... And these are big woods deer, no Ag. fields for miles..... Go figure...
 
Only thing I've tried that was close to sweet feed was some bags of mineral/apple/corn mix that was given to me. Can't recall the brand but the only things I had on camera eating it was coons. One thing I had good luck with was alfalfa cubes. Deer seemed to dig up the spots all winter where they laid. We had a guinea pig my wife was spending $$ on treats so I picked up a big bag of the alfalfa cubes to save money. Damn thing died not long after so I had to do something with the bag.
