Default If all the hunters...

on opening day, used a good scent/lure, who would attract the biggest deer. How would the deer choose.

There's alot of talk about banning natural urine scents due to spreading of CWD.

Never used them. Never saw the need for them. I do it the old fashioned way, I pay attention to the wind. Considering I've taken over 90 deer I see no reason to change my ways now.

Already done here in Virginia. It is strange as it is illegal to use or have in your possession when hunting BUT not to sell in the stores.

Game agencies do not have the authority to prevent commerce by telling stores what and what not they can sell. It is illegal to use deer cocaine and cmere deer to hunt deer or corn to hunt deer, however it is not illegal to sell it. I really don;t think we want to see the day where it is.

I am not a fan of anything in a bottle and hanging on a rack at the store besides cover scent. However, when we drop down to S. IL every fall there's a fuel station that has a small fridge and they sell locally harvested doe-in-heat urine. I have had deer come in on it fast and hard.

I have never seen it work but try some every year. I have had success with Ever Calm as a cover scent, though.

Natural urine scents are illegal to use in my home state. Never really used them anyways.
