Default RE: Barn Burner Question Of The Week

YUP, the best thing you can use is "Hunt the wind". That's it. If it's wrong, just move or go home. Scouting, patience and the wind will bring them in everytime. All the rest of that stuff is pure fluff. I say that it probably does as much harm as good. I've tried it all. I further say MOST deer that people think came to something were coming that way anyway. Why does it surprise people if a deer comes in when they do all the scouting, figure out the patterns and carefully hang their stands. That's why we do it. If you've done it right you should expect a deer to come by, especially with the huge herds we have today. 30 years ago the scouting etc was even more critical. Attractants, like REAL apples and things like that can help, but all that stuff in a bottle is just that...>>STUFF.
