I like to put a few drops in a scrape I made near an area where bucks have been rutting in. I also like to get a few 35mm film canisters with some clean cotton in them to saturate with some doe p. When setting out I like to place them in a semicircle upwind of where I think the buck might be. The canisters are great to use over again and easy to pick up when a days hunt is done. Leaving a few drops of fresh scent when leaving will help to keep that buck around for when you return in the morning. Tinks 69 or other Tinks product hasn't done me much good up here. I preffer Cronk's Deer Scents which has been making scents for trappers for years. If i can't get Cronks I settle with Foggy Mountain Scents. Good Luck to you on your hunting this year...
