Never had any luck with cmere deer. Plain old deer corn is a great stand by if you can bait in your state or area. In my opinion, most everything else is overpriced and ineffective. Curiosity scents can be great during the earliest parts of the archery season. Mock scrapes during pre-rut. Estrous scents during the rut. Hunt food sources or bait in the late season. Bait doesn't ever guarantee you'll kill a monster. In most cases, they'll visit a bait site in the dark, or avoid it period unless absolutely necessary, especially if they've been pressured. Your best shot at killing a mature buck is not always to attract him to you, but to study and learn his habits, and anticipate when and where he will be.

amen^ The only type of food that I believe will actually attract big bucks to you is if you spend the time and money to develop a food plot that you can hunt. As we all know that is very expensive and like Zack said, you will have better luck studying a deers area and finding out where the buck spends his time.

Jeremy Griffin

it depends on how much it has been used in your area I have had luck with it but the deer usually go to it when I am not there and the cam catches them

Cater to the does, the more does you have in your area the better the chances are that the bucks will come a court'in .

Brannon Lillard

I believe the opposite, during the rut anyway. The better buck to doe ratio you have intensifies the rutting activity for mature bucks. With fewer does to be bred, bucks will work harder and travel farther to find hot does, which increases your chances of seeing a buck you didn't even know was on your property.
