so I work for a flavor manufacturer. So I have natural and artificial flavors. So I decided to try and make some molasses buck jam. I used corn syrup then some real molasses mixed together then added some brown sugar mixed it then added some maple syrup and mixed. Its real thick and sticky. I'm gonna pour on a stump away from stand and see what happens. ..... your thoughts?

I found this:

Okay - Here's a deer lick brew that I use and it has worked great. I put several of these out - some near the feeder, others on paths that lead to the feeder or cross my property elsewhere. The deer love these deer licks - although technically I guess they're not licks since I pour the liquid directly on the ground, anyway here's my free Deer Lick Recipe:

This makes 5 gallons-
5 Gallon bucket
Boil about 3 gallons of water - Boiling water will dissolve more of the ingredients
6 lbs Iodized salt
2 cups Baking Soda
1.5 Cups Baking Powder
18 oz. Molasses
Potassium Gluconate (20 - 500mg Tablets)
Magnesium (10 - 250mg Tablets)

Add more water to fill the bucket (about another 2 gallons)

Clear about a 2ft. patch of ground - minor dirt disturbance to aid absorption.
Slow Siphon the concoction into the disturbed earth (Air Line for Fish Aquariums works great!). Slow siphoning allows deeper penetration and keeps the liquid more concentrated in the desired area. As the liquid cools some of the ingredients may precipitate out of solution - not a problem - pour that stuff right on top of the wet soil
