Default Scents: yes or no

I've never used cover scents or attractants, but I'd like to know how many people use them and which ones seem to work.

I use Tinks 69 every year and it always draws bucks in.

Just not ones worth shooting....[&:]Last year for instance I had a forky come threw, get up on his hind legs and stick his nose into the scent wick. After that buck left, about 3 mins later a beautiful 150" 8 point, gorgeous mature buck, comes from the same place the forky came from.

He stuck his nose in the air and walked the other way away from me.

I will keep using Tinks though, because of all the different scents i've tried this seems to be the most productive.

As far as cover scents go we have a ton of fox in Chester County so I spray some on my boots before entering the woods every time.

No cover scents, I use to use Scent Killer spray. Every so often I'll use James Valley In the gell form. That Is some good stuff!!

I use the code blue standing estrus. It's expensive, but it works.

I have used tinks 69 often, however i used Golden Estrus this year, and i had 2 bucks respond to it, following right in my tracks. I have a hanging wick, but i always puta little on my boot. Works for me, just a thought!
