RE: deer scents
I got the best reaction I ever got with a scent last year while using Bob Kirschners Silvertop (November 1st BTW). It actually pulled a buck off of a doe and zig-zagged him in to me. I'm pretty sure the doe wasn't hot judging from the chase I witnessed just before the shot, but that it pulled any deer off the real thing makes me want to try it again this year.
