Rice Bran

I’m curious as well.

I stopped using it a while ago because I felt like it molded. But maybe other people have better luck

Just dump on ground and wait.

I mix it up with my corn. Dusting. Usually when I find a new spot to put a camera.

5-10 lbs of rice brand with 50lbs of corn.

Any moisture spoils the ricebran I have found, but it still pulls them in fast. You should see what you have in the area in a day or two.

I have only used Rice Bran or a peanut mix of it in a certain way...it is not really something I put out often. I use it sparingly.

But say, if I am hunting tomorrow morning and I know there is no rain in the forecast, I would go in the afternoon today and put some out in a line with the hopes of a deer starting on one end and working its way to the other. That line will be in a fashion that gives me a good shot. I try to keep that type of "deer snack" new to the deer. I know they like it, but during the rut it is usually good at making a doe stop and snack, which usually gives time for the buck chasing to ease out at a slower pace, if that makes sense.

In short, basically I know the deer like it and the scent of it will catch their attention...I try not to put so much of it out regularly because I do not want them to get used to it which in turn really catches their attention when I want it to.

I use the persimmon flavored rice bran and the deer lick it down to the dirt. I pour several small piles so that it doesn't last more than a couple days. If it sits too long or gets wet, it will mold and the deer won't touch it after that. I also try to put the piles in different places so that residual mold doesn't affect the new pile, etc. I try to get smaller bags if I can, and just dump it in my shooting lane on the way to my stand on Saturday morning, and it'll last all weekend usually.

I like to dump it into the suction on my wifes electric leaf blower and make a big rice bran smoke cloud when I'm doe blasting

They eat it too fast at my place. If I put a bag out, it's gone in a day, two at most.

Try to get ahold of some wild game treat. It’s a flavored mix and is very aromatic, I can smell it from 50-75yds away. I typically dump rice bran in a pile in cover but in view from a stand I’m gonna hunt. I have seen deer feed on a bran pile in cover that would not come out to a corn feeder on a foodplot .

Shoot most gas stations in SE Louisiana carry it. Bought a bag a a Napa auto this evening lol.

I used Rice Bran for 2 years and would have 15-20 deer a hunt come in and eat corn and wouldn't even sniff the rice bran. The only animal I had on camera eating it was a coyote.
