I'm going to say its one of the wood asters. Some of them are very similar in appearance.

My guess is one of the two below:

Big-Leaved Aster (Eurybia macrophylla)
White Wood Aster (Eurybia divaricate)
 
Those show up in native perennial seed blends don't they?

I'm sure they would since they are a very nice flower. This must be a good year for them. I saw another pic recently where they had taken over a food plot in the woods.
 
Some are known as fleabane or daisy fleabane(white petals).

Twenty five years ago or so, I was hunting about 60 miles north of your 172 location and had a yearling buck walking along and picking out the fleabane to eat. He eventually laid down under my tree.
That's the fun part of bow hunting.
