    You make it sound like you have one of those remote/wifi controlled rifle shooting systems where you shoot animals while sitting on the couch at home....be real cool to have and take the foot slogging out of hunting.
    Tried the molasses and tyre trick?
    Overkill is still dead.

    was there not a safari outfit in the States got into deep shit doing that - they had a set up for wheelchair hunters basically if I remember they had feed stations - a rifle on a mechanical hydraulic platform near it and a set up with optics transmitting to a key pad which could be miles away - the shooter toggled the scope onto the deer happily munching away and remotely activated trigger some thought it completly unsporting - hmmm wonder why

    one may be better off to attract deer by fertilizer and clover grass seed mix - get some good tasty stuff growing - the only problem is DOC land under the Conservation Act technically illegal to introduce seed

    Best deer attractor is peanut butter. Jar up tree on string and couple holes in it . Drip down. Telling lies? Put up your game camera.

    Hole in the top too for water to run in? Runny peanut butter probably the best?
