For serious hunters and land managers who demand robust forage that truly performs, Slam Dunk delivers. It’s designed to attract deer like a magnet by providing the critical nutrients they need for optimal growth and health. What Makes Slam Dunk a Game Changer? Slam Dunk is a powerhouse blend featuring high-sugar radishes and nutritious forage peas. But what truly sets it apart is that every single seed is infused with Antler King’s proprietary Ultra Coat Orange technology, providing: Superior Germination: Get more plants per seed, establishing a thicker, more productive plot. Enhanced Seedling Vigor: Stronger, healthier plants from day one, ready to take root. This strategic combination means you’re building a year-round deer nutrition program that pays out once the season begins. Dual Benefits: For Your Deer, For Your Hunt Slam Dunk works double duty, significantly boosting both your deer herd’s vitality and your hunting opportunities. For Your Deer: Sustained Energy & Protein: Provides a critical, continuous mix of high-energy carbohydrates and essential protein throughout the entire fall. This is vital for antler and body mass growth, improving overall herd health as deer prepare for (and recover from) the rut. Enhanced Palatability: Our diverse blend ensures continuous attraction, especially once the frost hits. Deer’s dietary preferences shift with the seasons, but Slam Dunk offers varied forage types that remain highly palatable, keeping them coming back. Improved Digestion: Offers highly digestible forage, ensuring your deer absorb a better percentage of vital nutrients than harder to digest foliage. Winter Preparation: Delivers crucial energy reserves that help deer build fat stores and endure harsh winter conditions, ensuring a healthier herd next spring. For the Land Manager: Unrivaled Deer Attraction: Creates a consistent magnet, drawing and holding deer on your property, significantly improving your hunting opportunities from bow season to late gun season. Simple & Effective Planting: Designed for ease of use, making it straightforward to establish a productive, high-performing plot, regardless of your experience level. Long-Term Property Value: Contributes to a healthier, more robust deer population year after year, enhancing the overall value and hunting potential of your land. Soil Improvement: The deep taproots of our radishes naturally break up compacted soil, improving water infiltration and nutrient cycling. This benefits your land long-term, reducing the need for extensive mechanical tilling. Planting Your Slam Dunk Plot: Step-by-Step For a thriving Slam Dunk food plot that pulls in deer all season, follow these simple steps. Plant late summer to early fall, aiming for 60-90 days before your first anticipated hard frost to allow for optimal root development. Site Selection: Choose an area that receives at least 4-5 hours of direct sunlight daily. Soil Preparation: Soil Test (Highly Recommended): Get a soil test for best results. Slam Dunk can germinate in soil with a pH between 5.4 and 7.0. (Adjust pH with lime as needed.) Weed Control: Eliminate all existing weeds before planting using appropriate herbicides or mechanical methods. Seedbed Preparation: Create a firm, finely tilled seedbed. Till to a depth of 4-6 inches, then firm the soil with a cultipacker or roller. Fertilization: Apply a balanced fertilizer (e.g., 5-10-10 or 10-10-10) as recommended by your soil test, or at a general rate of 200-300 lbs per acre if no test is available. Application Method: Broadcast Seeding: Evenly spread 3 pounds per 1/2 acre (or 6 pounds per acre) using a hand seeder, broadcast spreader, or ATV spreader. Lightly Cover: Gently cover the seeds by dragging a chain harrow, cultipacker, or a light drag behind an ATV. Do not bury seeds too deeply; light coverage is crucial for optimal germination of brassicas and peas. Compaction: Roll or cultipack the plot again after seeding to ensure excellent seed-to-soil contact, which is important for quick germination. Regional Considerations: In northern areas, ensure early enough planting to allow significant radish bulb development before heavy frosts. In southern regions, closely monitor rainfall and consider supplemental irrigation if dry conditions persist after planting. Why Choose Antler King Slam Dunk? Antler King Slam Dunk doesn’t just promise results; it delivers them consistently.

How does Slam Dunk solve this? A: We hear this often, and it’s exactly what Slam Dunk is designed to overcome! Our unique blend features fast-growing forage peas that provide early-season attraction and protein, and cold-tolerant radishes that develop energy-rich bulbs. These radishes become even more palatable after a hard frost and continue to offer crucial nutrition even under snow. This strategic combination provides continuous forage from early bow season well into the late winter, keeping deer actively feeding on your plot. Q: I struggle with getting good germination and a thick stand from my food plot seeds. Will Slam Dunk be different? A: Yes, absolutely! Slam Dunk seeds are treated with Antler King’s exclusive Ultra Coat Orange technology. This isn’t just a color; it’s a proprietary coating that dramatically improves germination rates and seedling survival, providing faster establishment and a much thicker, healthier stand right from the start. Q: When is the best time to plant Antler King Slam Dunk for optimal results? A: The ideal time to plant Slam Dunk is anywhere from late June to early September in most regions. You want to aim for planting at least 60-90 days before your first anticipated hard frost to allow the radishes to develop substantial root bulbs. Q: How much area will one bag of Antler King Slam Dunk cover? A: One 3.5 lb bag of Antler King Slam Dunk is designed to cover approximately 1/4 acre, assuming proper spreading and seedbed preparation. Q: Do I need to fertilize my Slam Dunk plot? If so, what kind of fertilizer? A: Fertilization is highly recommended for the best results. We strongly advise conducting a soil test to determine the precise needs of your plot. If a soil test isn’t available, a general recommendation is to apply a balanced fertilizer: 19-19-19 or 13-13-13 at 300 lbs per acre during seedbed preparation. Q: Can I plant Slam Dunk in a no-till situation, or do I need to prepare the ground? A: While a finely tilled and firm seedbed is ideal for optimal results with Slam Dunk, it can be attempted in no-till situations. For success in no-till, you’ll need sufficient weed control and should do your best to ensure excellent seed-to-soil contact. This often requires running a cultipacker or a heavy roller over the area after seeding. Keep in mind that results may be lower when compared to a tilled plot. Get Your Slam Dunk Today!
