She'll be like woah, that ain't right ( does aren't in heat until late October, November timeframe ( in my area ). Just thought I should put this out there for anyone who doesn't know.
I don't use anything until the pre-rut. In MI usually starts last week of OCT. Pre-rut I use a "James Valley" scent called "Wallhanger" excellent results, and when the rut shows, I use the "Doe-in-heat". If the bucks in your area will react to scents, these I have found get "me" the best results. i've been hunting for over 35 years (which means nothing to you) but they have produced the best, and I've used all the top of the line. Just my 2 cents.
