This is just my opinion. I know that there are a lot of hunters that swear by scents. I personally have tried just about everything out there. The best scent that I have used is the one that the deer cannot smell. Nothing. I have had more deer react negatively to scents than positively. Last year I swore off the notion that deer are just going to come a running in because of something I hung on a scent wick. I try to keep my human odor to a minimum and hunt stands that take my scent away from where I anticipate the deer are going to come from. If a deer smells something either positively or negatively he is or she is going to be on alert. I want them to be as calm and relaxed as possible. Again that is my opinion based on my experiences with scents.
