Has anyone tried one of these mineral blocks? I just picked one up at Dicks to see what would happen. Thought maybe someone has tried one before.

Best mineral block I've ever used. But now isn't the best of times...spring time through summer is when they really hit it. Right now they'll hit it a bit, but it will just fade as we roll into the fall.

If you just let them be...they'll last for months and months, I put mine out in the spring and there is probably still 1/4 left of them now.
If you try moving them after they've been out there and soaked/penetrated by rains somewhat, they'll break up into a granular mess and get rained away pretty quickly...but the deer will still paw the ground for them.

Yea I've been putting my mineral licks in the same spot all year so far and they have really shredded it up! The other week I put some rack up in a hole then covered it with a bit of dirt and some big rocks so they couldnt' destroy it to fast...when I went back the other day the rocks were all over the place. They just flipped em out of the way and dug into the dirt!

My hunting buddy and I use Maple blocks. Last year while he was sitting in his stand, he witnessed two herds fight over one. Two large does actually boxed! We have a local feed store that sells them for $10. My buddy put one out Monday and it is being hit aggressively.
