I love those earth scented wafers and dry and store myclothes with them. How do we know that they smell like dirt to a deer just because they do to us.???

I love using scentsand have always had great or at least good luck with them. I don't however usually use them this early. If you were to use a scent I figure I don't want a full rut scent but maybe an immature buck scent or a dominant buck scent?I know every deer in the country has smelled tinks so I use James Valley because it's harder to find so I figure the deer have neversmelled it. Are there any even more obscure brands out there????

Does a rattle bag really sound like antlers or does it sound like a bag full of sticks?

I'm sorry.. I've been napping and my season is still not open.... ARG, I'm losing my mind.
