my best setup is a small clover/poison ivy plot with licking branches, rubbing trees and a water hole. I buried a 140 gallon Tuff Stuff Product tub. I ran 500ft of garden hose to the tub, I buried the last 30 yards of hose leading to the tub. i can see the tub from a vantage point so i know when to add water without putting my scent in the plot. i filled the tub about 20% with dirt to provide the deer with vitamins and minerals plus the dirt gives a natural smell. i do not worry about the water getting stagnant, imo deer like drinking from warm mud puddles. and of course place larger branch in tub for mice and frogs to get out. i don't want deer facing me while drinking so i block them by planting larger dogwood shrubs on certain sides of the tub. then i plant 100-200 hybrid poplar trees around the plot. poplar and dogwoods help attract deer, food !!! i highly recommend tuff stuff product 140g tub, only 20'' deep !! i got mine from rural king, i also have a 40g tub but that's a different story. Has anyone figured me out yet ????????? :lol::lol::SHOCKED::dizzy::D
Buckrahams water hole !!
