Homemade deer attractant

[hunter5567]

I mix some sweet feed in with the corn. Also maple syrup attracts them.
Grape and red soda along with some old beers in a bucket of corn and water and allowed to ferment for about 2 weeks till it smells like the back of a garbage truck will really bring the hogs in. That and the sweetfeed and corn mixture. I've heard you can pour diesel over corn and the hogs will be attracted to it but the coons will leave it alone.
The peanut butter trick works good too but it also attracts coons and 'possums.
I had a huge hog beating the top off my hanging feeder butting its head on the bottom when I had the sweetfeed and corn mixture in there.

I have a buddy that swears he can pee in a deer scrape and the bucks will come running.
I told him we will bottle his pee and sell it on the market. Should have a steady supply with all the beer he drinks.
