I used to set up multiple stands or blinds over a given hunting spot to allow me to hunt different sun and wind positions, but have largely given that up for many years now. An attractant scent, in theory, is potent enough and sufficiently enticing to drive a buck to do something he wouldn’t otherwise do. Frankly, even smelling both human and attractant scent together should (in human logic) build confidence that the area is at least sufficiently safe for the doe to be there, and like I said, frat boys chase ladies...
Thanks for the input! I was generally under the same assumption but just kinda wanted a quick sounding bored to make sure my own logic was sound.

Thats what I figured, I have already started plotting wind directions from weather reports in the general area from morning and evening times so I can choose a couple of different spots to set a treestand or blind.
