Im not a huge fan of curiosity scents because alot of companies just mix all of their scents together and call it "curiosity", during the rut, sometimes you can get away with it, outside of that, its more of a deer repellant. Id also say that, depending on how far into the rut you are, its a tad late for the scrape idea. In NJ, I could probably get away with working a scrape/mock scrape for another week, max.

Id take that Young Buck scent, put it on a drag rag and tie it to one of your boots, then do the same with the curiosity, but on the other boot. This will give the impression of a young buck attempting to tend an early estrous doe. Cross over known buck, or doe trails with the rags, then hang them both from twigs/branches, 20yards from your stand/blind.

You could also make a mock scrape within bow range of your stand and drop some curiosity scent in the middle, then make a little trail 10yards out from the scrape with the young buck scent.

Heres one way that Im using scents on a mock scrape tomoro, not to hunt, but for my camera. Im making a mock scrape under a licking branch. Im putting estrous scent on the scrape and dripping young buck scent around it. Also, Im putting corn down with C'Mere Deer and a 4-Way mineral/licking block. Both will be in range of the camera and Im setting it on video. This will bring bucks and does in. Hopefully, when they come to eat, they start to work/tend the scrape and maybe Ill catch my 140 or droptine on film !!
