RE: To scent or not to scent?
Are you talking about food scents or sexual attractants? I have had little to no luck with food scents though rutting attractants work a bit better provided they are used correctly and at the right time of the year. During the first 3 weeks of our archery season (early October) I only use regular doe pee or buck urine...mostly as a cover and relaxing scent. Once the end of October grows close then I might switch to one of the more popular doe-n-estrous scents to serve as attractant. In some cases that works quite well while in others the bucks don't even seem to notice it.
