Default RE: deer scents

you make a very good point here.. i never really tried any scents cept for some cover scents but i am still going totry something this year.. that code blue stuff seems good but for 40 bucks a bottle, ill get something else..
BarnesX- i rattled 3 bucks in last year in one morning. it was one of my best days ever. only problem was i was bow hunting some private land, and was only to shoot a doe.. i was just seeing what i could bring in.. this place is amazing deer everywhere.. the bad part was so many deer, so hard to draw. i ended up missing a doe. but what a day.

If you hunt the wind, the scent from your area does not go to where the deer are. Therefor, neither does your estrous potion. If the wind does go to the deer, they might smell human, too. As for putting it on the ground, and leading them to your stand - maybe. I've never had a deer come into a scent. I've rattle one in, though.
