I had a picture of one last season within an hour of me putting it out. I've never seen them totally ignore one though.

Try this airman I use to sit my rocks right on the bare ground got descent results but man when I moved the rock and set it up on an old stump! I can't begin to explain the activity on it when I did it

Bare ground will work just fine, matter of fact once the salt leeches into the dirt they will paw out a hole around it. Loose trace mineral salt works best and costs much much less than the Trophy rock as well. Sounds like your deer are likely already getting their salt somewhere else, but once they do discover it im sure they will start using it some.

Yes When I posted not to long ago when I put my TR out.
It takes a while for them to get used to it

I would watch them kinda sneak up to it
But now they are tearing it up
Let it rain a couple times let a little scent get washed off
The fawns love it,just give it time

Yes sir thats exactly what it looks like! \:\) BSK im sure you've seen them but there are some you could park a jeep in after enough years of salt being poured in them. The guards at Oak Ridge used to put salt out to watch the deer, after a few years the hole was so deep and wide you couldnt see the deer anymore after they went down in to the lick!LOL
