RE: The trouble with scents & calls!!
Skeeter, I guess that after 10 or 15 minuates of him just standing there, I thought that he needed a little coaxing or he stopped just because he heard something and was not sure what!!
I guess that if you are hunting an area that has a lot of competition, the calls may work, but I have had guys from Alabama, New York, Massachusettes, Rhode Island, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Ohio here hunting with me and I have yet to see a Mature Buck killed with a call or with the use of scents.
Last year I had 2 guys that bet me they could kill a buck with scents and calls, because they do it all the time in Massachusettes. They went home empty handed and saw 2 deer total, a doe and a 4 point.
