Whitetail minerals- winter time or just spring

[Livetohuntandfish]

Does anyone supplement minerals in the wintertime to help get bucks ready for spring horn growth? I would assume the mineral makeup would be different in the winter compared to the spring supplements. Any recipes?

They seem to target mineral during the warmer seasons, never really tried it during winter but they definitely are not hitting mineral sights that were already there.

From what I have read, they utilize the mineral supplements in the spring and summer when there is lots of moisture in their feed that tends to flush out the minerals in their system. When the feed dries up, less moisture so it doesn't flush the system. Seems to hold true from what I have seen, they are drawn to the blocks when the vegetation is green, not so much later season.
