Using Bait-Master's

"The Original Feed Booster"

... and how it helps your deer herd!

By Derek Mallard

     While preparing to write this article I pondered on how this should be presented to you. So I placed myself in your position and decided to do it in a question and answer format. I feel the more I know about what a product does and the easier it is to read and understand, I gain not only the educational value but also become more familiar with the product on a personal level. My goal is to make it easy for our customers to review all the essential information when considering the purchase of Bait-Master products.

     Bait-Master’s “The Original 93 Octane Feed Booster” was not solely designed to be an attractant for wildlife. It was also designed to provide an animal that feeds mostly on mast and browse with the necessary fat it needs to prosper during periods of increased activity such as the rut and especially during harsh winters. Although “The Original 93 Octane Feed Booster” is a great attractant by the aroma alone, it provides energy through the fat it supplies as your deer feed on it. 

What makes “The Original 93 Octane Feed Booster” so special?

     This is actually a two-part answer.

     Never before has there been a product that can be mixed or sprayed on any feed, natural or manmade and applied to browse as well, that offers deer herds the benefits of "93 Octane Feed / Browse Booster". Its aroma is overwhelming and activates a desire in deer and other game to seek it out. When inspecting feed or browse where
“The Original 93 Octane Feed Booster” has been applied, deer find a product that offers them something they need and desire, and get immediate boost in energy when consuming it.

     Since “The Original 93 Octane Feed Booster” is easily digested this allows a deer to consume more feed on a daily basis, which raises the daily caloric and protein intake. In the fall and winter, as the rut begins, a buck will generally lose about 20-25% of his body weight. So providing him with the extra fat to replace that which he is losing from eating less will help him maintain a much better overall body weight. As winter begins and rut ends the amount of food that is readily available is much less than the spring and summer. So using “The Original 93 Octane Feed Booster” along with your regular feeding program helps sustain your deer herd even during the hardest winters. By the time spring arrives your deer have maintained a steady body weight aiding them in being larger and stronger animals. Our product serves as a booster for bucks as they begin to produce antlers and as the does are producing milk for the young fawns. 

When is the best time to use “The Original 93 Octane Feed Booster”?

     Since deer need fat year round, and there is only limited ways a deer can get fat on a regular basis, we recommend that you use “The Original 93 Octane Feed Booster” year round. The main way a deer gets fat in their diet is through acorns, which fall in autumn. This is why deer and all wildlife crave acorns so much! Acorns are a primary source of fat. Acorns provide an average of 17% fat with a very low protein level. By using booster year round with your feeding program you are providing your animals with something they not only crave, but also need. Since corn only provides 7% protein on average, and basically no fat, deer have to consume large amounts of feed to sustain life in general. Studies have shown that deer, during the spring and summer, will eat about every 3-5 hours. They consume as much browse as possible to provide them with much needed nutrients. Many times a deer will consume too much browse searching for the needed nutrient intake. Many times this causes bloating. When you provide the proper nutrients and fat content to a deer in an easily digested product the deer will eat more volume without bloating thus producing larger deer. 

I see on the web site that “The Original 93 Octane Feed Booster” can also be applied to browse, how does this work?

     To apply “The Original 93 Octane Feed Booster” to browse you simply spray it directly on any browse in your hunting area. By doing this you create an instant food plot. When “The Original 93 Octane Feed Booster” is applied to browse you have just kicked up the fat content on the leaves or vegetation it has been applied to. It’s easy to create a food plot even in areas that feeding is typically not allowed. This not only saves you time and money, in the long run it allows you to decide where you want to draw your deer to. Once a deer finds a source of fat he will continue to return to that area time after time to feed until the source of fat is gone. To sum it up - by using “The Original 93 Octane Feed Booster” as a instant food plot you don’t need a tractor, planters, prep time of soil, rain etc. to provide your herd with the fat they need and desire. You can now create food plots in areas you never would have considered having one in the past.

     In closing let me remind you that “The Original 93 Octane Feed Booster” is a product that provides you with a method to help your deer year round. It’s not only for hunting season. So many of us now work year round to grow larger trophy animals for our hunting experiences, adding “The Original 93 Octane Feed Booster” to your management program will aid you in producing that trophy deer we’re all looking for.

Bait-Masters Scent Activated Feed & Browse Boosters
Tips from "Dancing Dank"
by Dickie Minchew

I have been very blessed in that my father’s love for the outdoors and hunting always included me. I have hunted the southern woods for all game with gun and bow. I have enjoyed continued success in the field, and learned many valuable lessons that come with all outdoor activities. I have taken 48 whitetails with a bow, and in the process of doing so have developed some great techniques that hunters can count on time and time again.

In this article I am going to explain how I have used Bait-Masters feed/browse boosters since the development of these great products. I think everybody that loves going into the woods during the fall season to hunt whitetail deer, having spent their time and money to do so, would also like to know more about this wonderful animal and its habits and diet. I have learned a lot about whitetails during my pursuit of them, but no other information is as important as their daily diet. How many times have you seen someone after field dressing or butchering a deer cut into the stomach of that animal? I bet some of you have never seen this done, and if you did see it, it was probably a result of an unintentional cut as the process was treated as something to avoid all together. I know what you are thinking. Because of the smell of digesting foods in the stomach you don’t want to “go there.” I have learned to deal with the smell as it is always worth it to realize exactly what the deer is consuming and where it has to go to get it. In learning the daily diet of deer in my area, I was presented with some problems other than the smell of their stomachs. These deer are always mostly filled with browse, with some mast and agricultural feeds if available, but certainly 90% browse always was the outcome of my inspections. The problem that I am referring to is that Southern Georgia is covered with browse. The deer have benefited from this fact because they can get 90% of their diets practically anywhere. On the other hand, trying to pinpoint a favorite spot to hunt deer based upon the deer’s diet was hard, to say the least.

Hunters, here’s the good news! Whether you live in the south or in any area of the country, this problem of trying to pinpoint feeding locations after stomach inspection can be turned around in your favor with the use of Bait-Masters scent activated feed/browse boosters. Boosters, when applied to your identified browse in a spray form, will turn the area it’s applied to into an instant food plot. This product will draw the deer into this area by its aroma while boosting the fat content of the browse, bringing the deer into this area over and over until the treated browse has been consumed.

Bait-Masters boosters come in four flavors for the 2007 season, and can be applied to natural or man-made feed as well as all browse. Bait-Masters Super Booster will also be available for the same use and techniques.

I want to thank everyone for their interest in our new product line and hope that the product information above will help you in your pursuit and understanding of our wonderful whitetails.
