Re: Trophy rock!
I put one out where lots of deer frequent, nothing touched it. I moved it to behind my house and it slowly disolved over a couple years. Only recently did I notice deer pawing at the ground when it was darn near gone. Maybe they were licking it all along, but it never got those typical "dents" like you see on mineral blocks. I put 50lbs of trace mineral in that spot, deer arent touching it. I like the idea of the rock, as its not real obvious to others. I have a stump at my dads that I used to put trace minerals on it and all around the roots. I havent put any new stuff on it for at least 4yrs, yet to this day my dad said deer are still tracking that area up pretty good.

Re: Trophy rock!
I use Trophy Rock, and I get alot of pics of deer all spring and summer long, I also have pics of a Bear, coyotes, a porcupine and a turkey, they all seem to love the rock. I have to go to my area to cut the brush about once a month though, but it's exciting to see what shows up on my camera. I use a bushnell trophy cam on public land and have to use waders to get in but it extends my season and lets me know what my bucks will look like for the fall.

Re: Trophy rock!
I've had pretty good luck with them too. I. Put one in an area and the does werehitting it daily. The area never had any buck rubs or scrapes b 4 the rock. But that fall. I was surprised to see buck rubs and a scrape made in the tree the rock sat under. The does frequenting the rock must attracted the bucks attention enough where they started hanging around the area too.

Re: Trophy rock!
bulk salt and minerals are a lot cheaper at the local farm stores
check the ingredients of the rock and make up your own mind.

Re: Trophy rock!
The trophy rock absolutely works. It depends on how many deer you have in your herd as to how long, but it will last a couple of months anyway.

That couple of months is minimum, you will more than likely get 6 months or better out of it. You are welcome

Re: Trophy rock!
Just remember if your using this in Wi it has to be within 50yds of an inhabited dwelling. I don't agree with mineral being counted as baiting/feeding, but it is the law.

My hunting partner started a mineral lick this spring with Lucky Buck. We refreshed it Saturday, and I hung a camera over it. I forgot a card so we went back Sunday Morning, and it was hammered over night! This is my first and only experince with Lucky Buck, but based on that, the deer really love it. It has a pleasent "cherry" aroma, so I think that attracts them. Any way I was really impressed with what I saw in just one night. From the tracks it was obviously a doe and it's fawns, but they spent alot of time there. Can't wait to see the pictures.
