How and Where to Make Mineral Sites for Deer

- R'nA Co-Founder Nick Peterson explains how and where to make a mineral site for deer for under 25 dollars! That is over 100lbs of minerals and salt combined for cheap!!! Forget buying the expensive 20lb blocks when this is something anyone can do to improve nutrients for deer!

Grape Kool-Aid! I love it it is also a secret ingredient for catching catfish! You soak chicken breasts in it and use it for bait chunx
You just shared a trick I have done for a few years! Very nice video and thanks for sharing.
Definitely gonna try this this year awesome video Nick!!
Great video! Love the grape kool-aid idea!
I've been using that exact same mixture, minus the grape flavor, I use apple, for a few years now and have been impressed with the results!
Gonna have to try this! Thanks for the tip!
Great idea. Using more mineral sites this year
Great info for moving forward!
Never heard about the grape 🍇 Kool aid!! My have to try that!!
Gonna have to try that out!
Thanks for sharing!
Awesome stuff! Wish NY would allow it.
Gonna have to try and get a mineral site going
Great video! Love it.
Tried to call anything last year I had two piles one with and one without the one without Got wiped out first. Check it out on my CZcams channel there's a part 1 and part 2
May have to give that a shot....my deer like flavored things
Wish michigan would allow is to do this. Great video Nick!
Yes, you can set it in spring, repeat summer till it is gone in deep ground. Before season open.
Add a 50lb bag cattle mineral with a 6% phosphorus minimum. A ratio of 1:1:2 (mineral;stock salt:trace salt). The grape mix will def help with palatability.
I second this. The mixture in the video is basically a salt lick which is still wanted and needed by the deer due to how much water their diet contains in the summer, but it doesn't have the calcium or phosphorous that aids antler and milk development. I used range mineral from tractor supply this past year with mixed with salt and some molasses.
Guys, I took your advice and added this into the mineral sites this year so I wanted to say thank you for the tip!
Ohhhhhhh yeahhhhhhhh! (Kool-aid reference) lol. I’ll have to give this a try!
Great video brother! But ALWAYS ALWAYS carry a knife in your pocket!!!!👍🏻
Facts!!!
Woah!!! This is cool
Good tip! Wish the great state of Wisconsin allowed that
Great advice man. Wish I woulda tried the koolaid when my county allowed it but it’s been halted for the time being. Can’t stress enough, close to a water source on existing trails and they will hammer it!
You can't have Kool aid ? Are you in north korea ?
haha
It’s the boots n shorts for me 😂.
Definitely gonna try the Kool aid.
I have tried to Kool-Aid in deer corn I made one pile with and one pile without deer went to one without check it out on my page part one and two Kool-Aid this year I'm going to try it and have it on video
Grape kool aid brings in pigs on my property the deer and raccoons didn’t care for it . I was putting corn out for the pigs not making a salt lick though .
We don’t have pigs in Ohio where I’m at thank god. Sorry it brought them in!
Another informative video! Wish new York would let us use mineral sites
Kool-Aid was a bust for me. I had one with corn and one with Kool-Aid they wiped out the one without quick check it out on my CZcams channel there's a part 1 and part 2
Ahhhh, the good old People's Republic of New Yorkastan..... Just be smart about it..
Awesome
Mix it in bucket and paint boulders and rocks before dumping on ground!
Great tip with the Grape. I’ll have to try it next year. I’ve been using Dried Molasses as the natural sweetener. The smell is mouthwatering!
I’ve been running 3 separate mineral sites on a 50 acre rectangular parcel. Nearly all 4 sides inevitably lead up a hill to the bottom center of the block.
For longevity of the minerals, I clear the ground to bare dirt, 5’ circle. I then use a small gardeners fork to essential tool up the top 3-5” of dirt. Once the ground is loose and chunky I spread approximately 1/4 bucket of minerals over the site. Using the fork again, I sorta fold that in to the ground. Then spread the remaining 1/4 bucket over the loose ground. Finished.
Like you stated, all sites locations are chosen with regard to established high traffic corridors. This year, I also added some vine branch mock scraps nearby.
As the rain washes the mineral in, the loose ground takes it deeper and assures an even saturation among the site. That helps a lesser quantity of mineral to last quite a while. Every deer that visits the site spends at least 5 minutes on cam digging for treasure!
Love it brother!
Ouuuu I like this
How long does a mineral site last for? Do you have to keep freshening it up and if so how often?
I repeated this process about 3 weeks later because they destroyed it and it last till around mid august/September. So next year in the same area I’ll do it again just sooner than May 😬
@@RunnArrow Great Info. So expect to place it out and freshen it up once or twice before season.
Wish ny allowed this!
Unfortnately nothing more than a great spot for pics. Bioavailability isn’t high enough and too much salt.
Lot of fun to do but far as helping deer it really is a waste of time.
Those deer will have a hole to China there really soon!
