RE: Chewing or Smoking in the woods
lol retrieverman...i also wizz right out of my tree...right into the bare spot i spit into. before climbing, i kick a patch of leaves away JUST to spit and wizz into. while im head to toe in scentlok.
ive had deer use a "mock scape" made by ME. not worried about urine.
and about chew spit, ive never had a problem with it. had a mature doe with fawns come in and eat DIRECTLY under my tree where i spit for a couple weeks every hunt...and countless deer within feet of it..
i really think deer are spooked by smells they associate with danger...when they start associating my chew spit with danger, i'll chew some fruity flavor or somethin lol...
the only reason i clear the leaves away is so i dont make noise...
just my thoughts on it...and yes, ive had mature PA bucks within bow range of my stand...
