I' m posting a new thread in reguards to Atlasman' s commits in thr rattleing thread.

I agree with him on the too much scent theory. At my deer camp 75% of the hunters arn' t concerned with their scent but they will drag scent pads to their stand,
hang 7 or 8 pads of doe pee, then hang a few torsal glands out, climb their tree and spray racoon pee on their stand. So when a deer, that lives in this area, comes through where there was no scent just a few hours ago, whats it gonna think? " Whats this guy doing out here among all my kinfolk" ?

I just get as scent free as I can and spray a little racoon pee at the base of my stand.

I mean, the trail is right there, the scrape is right over there and the rubs all around it. I know the deer are coming through anyway, so why put out the same lures that the idiot on the next ridge is using.

It just doesn' t make any sence.
