This is when it is most important to put out your minerals to help ther horn growth and keep them healthy through the rest of the winter.
A mistake people make is they wait til right before deer season to put the minerals out.
It does the antlers no good if they are already fully grown. So this time of year ( Jan.- Feb.) when there is nothing else going on is when you want to put them out.
Best places for mineral licks are food sources like food plots or crop fields or anywhere deer are feeding. Another is deer trail intersections where 2 or 3 trails cross each other.
