Before we deep our feet into the awesome deer attractants on the market, allow me to share with you the top factors that I always use to successfully hack my way into the deer attractant stores.

Here’s my Ultimate Checklist -

Things to Consider Before Buying The Right Deer Attractant:

As you might have heard time and again, NOT every deer lure will help you fool the deer into coming to your property for a precise short.

You, therefore, need to follow the factors below to get an effective deer attractant:

Type of Deer You Want to Hunt

The most important thing you should always ask yourself before setting out to buy attractants is the type of deer you are going to hunt. This is because some attractants are specifically manufactured to hunt specific deer types.

For example, there’s scent for whitetail, blacktail, and mule deer. If you make a mistake of hunting whitetail deer with mule deer scent, boy: you’ll be doomed!

Hunting Season

The same way there is attractants associate with certain deer types, you’ll also find lures for various deer seasons.

Now, as a hunter, you know that there are four main deer seasons: Early Stage, Pre-rut, Rut, and Post-rut. Which season are you hunting in?  Ensure you buy a lure designed for this season.

It’s also good to note that some lures know no season. That is, they can be used at any time of the year.

Which Region Are You Hunting In?

You must gather adequate information about the area you’re planning to set the lure in. This will help you determine whether the food you’re buying is plentiful in your target hunting zone or not.

If the food is in abundance, just forget it. The possibilities of the deer being attracted to it will be next to none!

Legal Factors

Yes, legal matters also matter a lot. Some state that prohibit the use of deer lures. Others prohibit feeding the deer at certain times of the year. Make sure you have this information at your fingertips to avoid being on the ugly side of the law.

Brand

The last thing you’d want to look for before you take out that credit card to buy a deer attractant is the brand behind its design.

Some brands are well known to provide lures that are completely ineffective. They keep you waiting for long hours without site of any deer.

On the contrary, there are genuine brands that help you attract the deer like crazy. Most of the deer attractants we’ll review below are from these reputable brands. Have a look at them…

Now get ready as I’m about to walk you through the most popular deer attractants that will change the way you hunt the deer.

To help you understand these products better, we’ve grouped them into FIVE broad categories namely:

1. Deer Attractant Spray/Scent: the spray is basically the scent collected from real deer. You simply deploy the scent by spraying it on the deer’s food source or the surrounding foliage. Still, you can spray the mist in the air and allow the breeze to disperse it farther.

2. Deer Attractant Liquids: this is also the scent of real-life deer (preserved in liquid form). The liquid is deployed with the help of a wick. One end of the wick is attached to the source (carried by the hunter) while the other end drags along the ground as the hunter walks. This creates a false sent that lures the deer into moving towards the hunter’s stand.

3. Deer Attractant Food: This category comprises of various types of foods that deer like to eat. The foods are manufactured and stored in read to use forms. All you’ve to do is to buy any of these foods and set out to your hunting locations, ready to lure the deer your way.

4. Deer Attractant Blocks/Solids: these are usually mineral salts that come in from of blocks, hence the word block or solid. They’re the easiest attractants to deploy. You simply transport them to your hunting zone and set them in a strategic position. That’s all.

5. Deer Attractant Powder: these are mineral salts that have been crushed into powder form. They’re either mixed with a food course, e.g. feed corn for the application. Also, you can dig a 2 feet hole and mix the loose soil with this powder and then bury it. This will make the deer paw in an attempt to get these mineral salts. They’ll even come again and again to consume these essential foods they always claim for.

What does the market have to offer you in each of the above categories? This is what we’re going to find next. We’ll feature the FIVE

BEST products in each category.

How Many Types Of Deer Attractants Are There?

Attractants that are used for deer hunting cannot be numbered as there are many products from different companies. Hunters can as even produce their own attractants if they come across the compounds used to produce them.

Hence, it is not feasible to determine the exact number of attractants produced but can only categorize these deer attractants according to their form and application.

These categories include;

Deer Attractant Spray

These deer attractants are in spray form. If you want to attract deer with this type of attractant, all you will do is to spray it on their food source or in the air. Air will disperse the scent of the spray. When the deer perceives the scent, it will be lured towards the direction of the spray.

Deer Attractant Liquid

This type of deer attractants is in liquid form. If you are the hunter and you are using this type of attractant, you will possibly need a wick. Hold the wick on one end and apply the deer attractant on the other end.

As you move, the end of the wick with the attractant solution will help to disperse the scent of the attractant in the path threaded by the hunter. Hence, wherever you go, the attractant will help to attract any deer that crosses that path towards you.

Deer Attractant Blocks

These are attractants in solid form. They are easily used to hunt deers, though they may not be as efficient as spray attractants and liquid attractants. 

These deer attractant blocks are used by the hunter to attract deers by strategically positioning them in places where they can easily interest deers. This implies that the hunter will need to be around to keep a close eye to the attractant.

Deer Attractant Food

In this type of deer attractants, the attractant compounds are used to produce foods that deers like eating very well. All the hunter needs to do is to buy these processed ready-to-eat meals and place them in the area where deers can easily discover them.

Deer Attractant Powder

These are deer attractants ground into powdered form. They are mixed with food or soil to attract deers.

Another critical factor to consider when classifying deer attractants is the type of deer the hunter is after. Different types of deer have different attractants that attract them. As we have whitetail deer, blacktail deer, and a mule, you can't use the attractant made for whitetail deer to hunt for a blacktail deer. 

Thus, there are different types of deer attractant with various forms and for different deer.

  • The area should not be prone to soil erosion or flooding. Think about the damages your plot would be subjected to if soil erosion or flooding occurs.
  • Remember to test the pH of the soil of the selected area to ensure it matches the crops you’re going to plant.
  • The area should be fenceless to give the deer a free pass to you plot.

If your area meets all the above conditions, it’s time to till it to make it ready for planting. Remove all the bushes and trees around.

3. The Planting Process:

What exactly should you plant in your new deer food plant? If you think that any type of plant would do, you’re totally mistaken. Here, you need to be smart, keeping in mind that your MAIN aim is to attract the deer to the plot.
