Baiting deer??

[BGbowhunters]

At my house I have my trailcam set with wet cob in frount of it, and the deer always eat it. A couple weeks ago I set my trailcam up at my parents house where I'm hunting with some wet cob. I checked my camera a couple weeks later and I got deer on it, but the cob wasn't touched, and no deer there are eating it. What else can I put out to bring in deer?

Can you define wet cob? I use a lot of corn and soybeans this time of year when it is starting to get cold. Early in the season I'll throw out some ears of sweet corn and that is like crack for the deer and coons. Deer will also eat apples like it is going out of style, but mostly during certain times of the year. Deer will eat corn grain or ears pretty much any time of the year though

Sweet horse feed works well... Our deer like pumpkins as well. I have my best results in front of trail cameras when I use a mixed bag of attractants.

cob= corn, oats, barley

The "wet" part means the corn, oats and barley have been mixed with molasses.........."dry" cob has no molasses mixed in.
"Wet COB" would fall under the generic "Sweet Feed" term.

Use dry cob. Deer not used to that sweet smell may not want to have anything to do with it. If you must have some scent spray watered down vanilla extract on regular corn. If the deer are used to having alfalfa fields to browse in break them up a bale of alfalfa. Works better off the ground for some strange reason here.
