RE: potty break?
"I go right out of the stand. I've evenshot does and a few small bucks after urinating earlier.
I even take things a step further. I urinate around my tree stands several weeks before the season starts. I've taken deer from those stands also.
I figure the deer wiil get use to my smell the same way they would get use to a ground blind. After a while they don't pay attention to it.
I even shot a spike while squatting over a pile of crap one time. Shot it with my pants down and all.
I was still hunting during the archry season, when I couldn't hold it any longer. As I was squatting ther, relieving myself, I looked up and saw a spike about 70yds. away watching me. It must have been curious and had to investigate. At 30yds, it went behind a large oak and I drew my bow. It came out the other side and stood there. I double lunged it as I knelt over my pile."
If there is one common theme to all this is that mature animals don't often get curious about human urine.
Thanks for the femal perspective Bamahuntress.Have daughters and need the help.
