RE: scent drag
The 8 point I shot this past season came right into my scent. I was about to get off stand when I heard him coming. He covered over 100 yards in a matter of seconds and was under my stand sniffing my scent wick. He was moving perpendicular to my scent trail and when he hit it he made a 90 degree turn and followed my path right to the wick. Although I must admit that is the only time it has worked out that great for me.
