Default RE: deer scents

I've had deer come into scent, run from scent...hard to figure out. The best luck I ever had in my life, I'll try to keep this concise: I went to the store to get Tinks when they first came out. The racks were clean, all sold out. The clerk comes up to me and says " so you wanna piss off a buck?" I said " I guess."

He suggested I try Ben Lee's Dominant Buck Urine. So I bought it, and went the night before, hung 2 scent bombs dripping with the stuff. Even brought my dog with me.

The next morning was early November, cold, and dry. Freshened up the bombs and here came the 7 pointerI had been anticipating. He didn't even stop to smell my stuff; just kept on his way with nose to ground and I missed...bad.

Thinking my hunt was over, an hour later somebody is coming up behind me. I'm thinking who is coming up so boldly and unconcerned? I turn around to see what hunter is about to stumble my way and lo and behold the biggest buck I have ever seen from a treestand is looking directly at me!!

Not only did he see me, but he came in anyway. He went straight for the bombs. I guess he really was pissed and the anger got the better of him. He was just huge!

Anyway, I shot and missed.

So, sorry about the story. I couldn't resist thinking of the relevance.
