The bucks love it...

[Pineywoods]

I have used sweet feed for years in place of handcorn while bowhunting and have always had great success with it. It will gum up in a protein feeder though so this season I decided to feed in an old trough over by the feeder and see how it does. I'd say they like the trough. I've only been filling it for 3 weeks and I had 1500 pics of deer all over it every day. With all of the green browse I wondered how hard they would hit it. Anyone else like using sweet feed?

Nice!

I used it one weekend when I forgot to buy corn and the landowner had a bag in the barn.
I only used about 2 pounds on two sits. Did have deer come in and eat it.

I've used sweet feed a few times but my go-to is alfalfa, especially the alfalfa that's ground like silage. They tear it up!

Every mature buck I've shot with my bow on that property that was a "trophy" was shot over a pile of sweet feed away from a feeder area.

Good deal, I’ll buy a bag for the back yard bucks.

I think the deer like eating free choice out of troughs much better than feed tubes.i use it at my house to stretch the protein I feed.they love 20% cattle cubes too.

I know of a guy up here where I live that uses a trough feeder like you have there. It definitely brings them in to his place.

Good looking deer Pineywoods. I have used on the ground before to attract them to new protein feeder locations. They hit it like candy. Where are you hunting? We might be neighbors.

Yep. I’ve used it for several years. Deer love it

I live in Livingston like you but hunt up on an old family place between Grapeland and Elkhart on the Houston/Anderson County line

Yep. I've used multiple brands. What their hitting hard right now is just 10% horse and mule from the feed store. I usually just grab the 12% from TSC

I have fed it. Great stuff. That's a really pretty 10.

Nice deer I will have to try it
