Default Seriously. Silly string? A new low?

Attention Voters: This is a multiple-selection poll, which allows you to maximize your voting awesomeness and click as many little boxes as it takes to satisfy your carnal clicking urges.

NOT A JOKE! This is an actual product:

Here is the actual product description, taken verbatim from the vendor's site:

Scent Web is a patented scent, wick and a delivery system all in one. Simply put, Scent Web is an environmental-friendly spray string that is scented with deer lure and attractants. Scent Web can be up to 300% more powerful than liquid scent products, due to the amount of surface area exposure when applied. The magnum propulsion from Scent Web will shoot a web up to 15 feet, keeping the hunter"™s scent contamination away from deer scrapes and trails. Because this is an aerosol, there are no messy liquids, cotton balls or containers to deal with. Each can contains up to 300 feet of web and fits easily into a coat pocket. The Scent Web flavors are designed to activate with air and get stronger with time. An added bonus to Scent Web is, after it is sprayed onto a tree or made into a scent trail, it will remain active until it dries and becomes brittle. Then, once exposed to moisture, the Scent Web will reactivate and slowly dissipate itself into the ground like other liquid lures. When used over an existing scrape, this technique can aid in freshening the scrape without the hunter being present.

Scent Web is offered in doe estrus (SHE-HEAT), buck/doe/tarsal mix (SCRAPE VENOM), and Vanilla/Acorn.



Squirt liberally.

So what we have here is deer-scented silly string. You spray it, willy-nilly, all around your treestand - and the deer come running!

This is clearly the ultimate in scent delivery systems.

"She-Heat"

"Scrape Venom"



Seriously. I love the action-shot of the "Magnum Propulsion." Is this a new low? Has the cough silencer been dethroned?

Default RE: Seriously. Silly string? A new low?

ive seen that pic in catalogs....it makes me chuckle....

i would have a ball with a couple cans at a college party though...can you imagine the endless possibilities???

im not much for any store bought scent so im somewhat biased...silly string scent is just goofy...maybe a good idea...but the "foam" gotta have a smell to it...silly string smells...plus the noise...that would be the most out of the ordinary sound to hear in the woods...

if i ever use scent again it'll be right from a deer farm steamin fresh....

MAN i might buy some silly string pee and head to a party!

I don't think its hard to believe someone came up with this idea. Theres numerous products that make ya think "What the?" I'm sure that it will sell also. Give me a free can and I'd try it.

This stuff is ridiculous. I posted this whenever we had the "ridiculous hunting products" thread.

A gimmick at its finest.

They will sell a ton of it, for the simple reason him and his Dad have tagged alot of good bucks. But dont confuse that statement with me buying it.
My all time favorite is still a picture of a doe ass on a white sheet of plastic you strap to a tree!

IMHO...the vast majority of scent lures on the market are JUNK...and I would guess that this one is probably no exception.
