Brett....the difference is (that either I didn't point out well....or you missed) is....why add something to your stand that will hold more HUMAN scent? That was my question.

That's it. Period. Forget I painted mine.

I don't think (and I'm not trying to be a smartass) deer have a propensity to be alerted to "paint" smell as much as they do human scent. I honestly (in retrospect) don't think they can smell the paint, after it's been up and down 80+ times....sprayed with scent killer numerous times....left out all night several times.....rained on several times....etc...

But hey I don't know paint. I'll take your word for it.

If they can.....there's a lot of people (in this thread) who've killed upwards of probably 15+ deer, this season, out of LW's we've added paint to.

Still not saying they can't smell it.
