Q:
I'm a southern boy who has seen whitetails go absolutely crazy over corn, C'Mere Deer, mollasses, etc. I was wondering do mule deer (and even elk) react the same way to these food based attractants?

I am sure that they would the only problem you would have is states that have Elk and Mule deer Like Montana where I am from typicaly Do Not allow bait to be used when hunting. Takes away from the idea of fair chase.

I would assume it would be just as effective. I know around here the bears love all that stuff!

We never tried to use anything like that in Colo. Because of the "baiting" laws.
