Any OB experts know of anything that will attract deer, but not the hogs?

I have a food plot planted as does everyone else in my lease, but no one is putting a feeder up this year because last year the hogs got bad. Does anyone know of anything i can do to put out something different to attract the deer to me and give me the edge over everyone around me who just have food plots. Not that im being greedy 
I'm hunting in the French settlement/livingston area and the deer are fairly wild because theirs a lot of hunters and pressure everywhere. Thanks in advance.

I don't know, maybe actually try scouting for deer travel corridors/feed areas instead of just trying to attract deer to you.

Wonder how many hunters in the south would hunt as much not having a lease, not being able to put feeders out, and having to scout/put in time to have a successful season like hunters out here have to.
Helluva a run on sentence

The WG Acorn rage droppin blocks have worked well for me in the past. They hang in the trees higher than the hogs can get and while I did have a hog or two on camera I had way more deer.

I know some that still would (mostly the ones that are most successful already) and plenty who would either put out feed anyway or just not hunt.
I honestly much rather hunt a stand around deer corridors and funnels or thick shite around bedding areas than a food plot or feed. The hunts I hated the most last season were the few times when I went sit on somebody elses stand they told me to go sit on and it was in a prime area with the stand in an absolutely horrible location/direction staring at a feeder. In MS it's not like the flat swamp in LA, it's easy to find decent areas to set up just by looking at a topo map of the lease.

not many, there is not nearly as much public land nor is there the density of deer on the public land avaialbe.
apples and oranges my friend.
FOR OP:
Try placing the feed in pipe feeders or in an elevated and secured trough so the pigs cant get to it. Minimum 2.5 feet high. The pigs will try to knock it over.

What if the conditions were the same?
Posted on 10/31/11 at 1:22 pm to LSUintheNW
IF conditions were the same and had always been the same and "southern hunters" had always hunted that way, I think you would see similar but slightly lower numbers as you have there. The flatness and thickness of the terain also lend themsleves to a different form of hunting than the vast topographical variations and openess of the NW.
If you changed the "conditions" but not the terain overnight in the south, you would see lots of outlaw hunters, lots of angry respectful hunters, an increase in "hunting accidents", and an increase in quitters.

Most definitely.
A lot of topo changes make hunting a lot easier (and more exhausting) IMO.

His sig image I'm guessing right?

FWTF is that sig pic, get that shite off of the OB. That type of BS is accepted on the OT and on one end ob Bourbon street but not around these parts.
You should think about what you post on the OB as something you would be proud to bring on your luggage to the hunting camp, and that pic would get your arse kicked at most camps I know.

not sure if responding to my estimation of hunting differences or to my attack on the naked man.

Both....I had to go to the full page to know what y'all were talking about as I was on my phone.
