Experimenting with grape mash byproduct as attractant….thoughts?

[mtclev5651]

One of my best buddies is a local ag agent and we have been talking about experimenting with some ag byproduct for attractant.

What are your thoughts on leftovers from grape mash?

Northeast ga, so we don’t have those worries yet haha. What do you think about deer?

I knew a guy that tried similar with a lot of muscadine left overs.
Never knew if it attracted deer or not.
The 8 million yellow jackets ran him off though.

Yeah, that was my thought as well. If it's raw squeezings, the jackets will swarm it. If it's been fermented into silage, it ought to be good. Cattle like it.

That's something I would have never thought of. Interesting. I like it. Never hurts to try as long as you're not allergic as others have pointed out about getting stung. Good luck if you decide to try it.

Pretty sure he hunts Forsyth Co. Might be a hog here or there but I've never seen one either. Course I live and grew up South of Ga 20.

My daughter used to live in Forsyth County and we saw a lot of deer there. I never thought about there not being hogs there! There are for sure plenty of them not very far from there.

I am hunting a piece on the Oglethorpe/ Greene line. Lots of water, planted pines, no hogs.
No idea why. Most places just like this one are covered up.
