RE: Lets talk scents..........
I take off a week each year and hunt our farms in eastern NC...We arrive on Saturday and have time to hunt that afternoon...We spend Sunday scouting...
I have one area that is about 150 yards beside a field, this area has white oaks and a old logging trail running through it...It also has 2 cutovers nearby...There is usually a scrape under one of the holly trees, on the logging road...I pour a half a bottle of Tinks 69 into the scrape and hang 3 35mm flim canisters on limbs along the logging trail with a cotton ball soaked in the rest of the Tinks...I then leave the area until Wednesday afternoon...I then walk in with a scent drag soaked in Tinks and stop and add Tinks to the scrape and scent bombs...I then climb a pine tree that I have used for years...I have killed several nice bucks in this area using this technique....Now this is a good area, even without the Tinks, but I feel that it pulls bucks in and also helps bring them out of the cutovers and they stop when they cross the logging trail, giving me a good shot...
