Dear love corn on the cob; I’ve used that as bait, next to a salt lick.
Dozens of deer used to come thru my nursery & garden center to rut the field-grown trees, and ruin them, so I had to lure them to the other end of the 20ac nursery, or shoot them when they came up out of the hollow, on the next property, where they nested.
I shot one with my Kimber 1911 .45cal ACP w/ 230gr HPs, as it was trying to break into one of my 8 30ft x 90ft perennial growing greenhouses.
Someone, somewhere in the hills of the MD panhandle is grilling some back-strap in 10 degree air tonight. And I bet they wear a badge.
