Real Deal Hunting Chat > Hunting > Deer Lure Attractant

ok, I am looking for a deer attractant ANYTHING, but there is 1 issue! It has to NOT ATTRACT COONS!!!!!!

OMG I checked my cameras today after exactly 8 days and on my stealth camera I had 312 pictures and on my moultrie 100 I had 517 pictures. Can I just tell you that I had out of all 829 pictures, only 22 had whitetails in them! The rest were a coon or coons or possy of coons! UGH I admit a few were cute because there was a female with a very small baby that stayed pretty much under her backside but they ate up all the corn, sweet feed, powder C'Meer Deer, and dug huge holes in the ground where I put Tecomate's Horns-A-Plenty minerals under 1 camera, and Doc's Deer Scents Raging Rack minerals under another. The holes weren't from the deer, but the coons! Of the deer I had come to the mineral area were fawns say 85% the other 15% were year old bucks and does.

Anybody else having good results in a coon infested area?? FYI this property is not mine but am the only 1 that has permission to hunt it. So terminating the coons is a no no...

Use Jerry's ( gloss1) attractants. They work very well. He will be putting it up for sale here very soon! They work like a charm!

Sorry i am a newby here. Is there any write up on this attractant? If its not out yet, how did you use it??

gloss1 is a member here. he made some attractant and sent it out to anyone who wanted it for testing. there was a whole bunch of different types of the attractant. you put it out and put a trail camera over it and then report back here with what ever pictures you were getting.

the old thread is right here in this section

At this time of year, anything that attracts deer will attract Rcoons. Jerry's does work and I'd suggest it to anyone wanting to get deer in positions for PICS.



Th reduce the Rcoon pics try positioning the cam lower to the ground and pointed higher above the ground (2-3') that way the coons will be below the ir cone and you will get a higher % of deer and fewer Rcoons. 59.gif

If nothin else works..i suggest a .22 biggrin.gif jk...

I agree with Cap, try changing the angle of the camera so it points up a little bit away from the ground so the coons cant trigger it. Lets see some pics..coons are better than nothin i guess tongue.gif
