They make "apple skoal" now? The last time I noticed, and when I chewed, they just came out with cherry.

Hmm, I wonder if that would be considered "baiting"?

;)

apple , peach and berry now also

I've been dipping for going on 15 years now and I ALWAYS dip on the stand..... I've had many a deer of the years walk right through where I had been spitting and make no indication of being alarmed. I've spat on the deer themselves on many occasions as well. I don't it bothers them at all. Seems like it should, but experience proves otherwise........

BTW, apple skoal is for wussies...... Any skoal for that matter is for wussies....... Man up and get some Timber Wolf :D

Man a day on stand without Cope?? I have nightmares about that. My checklist always includes, License, Bow, Arrows, Knife, permission slips, Cope. I could probably get by a whole day without the Bow, but without Copenhagan I'd be useless!

Some people carry a back-up release..I carry a back up can! Never noticed an alarming effect from chewing, spitting.

I tried to leave my Cope at home one time, "ONE TIME" I was so gittery and nervous. I just felt out of place. Everytime I hit the stream or climb into the stand I have to put one in.
I'm not addicted though.;)

I know the feeling...... I keep telling my wife that I can't imagine life without my Wolf.......... She's not impressed........

We've got to quit though guys...... It's suicide, just slower........

Ya know Double Creek..I'm thinking of trying to quit. But it has to be the first of the year. I'm not about to try during Golf or Hunting Season. But wait...then that takes me into indoor shooting season...until Golf starts again..man it's always something.

No seriously I am gonna try 1st of year

I have dipped for years out of stands. I used to try not to thinking I was thwarting my efforts to stay scent free. But, after trial and errorI find it doesn't give off a scent that deer find alarming.

So the bottom line for me is, If I can't dip out of my stand; I ain't going?

Copenhagen Black all the way!!! ;)

I've been dipping on stand for years now. Have taken quite a few nice bucks during the years mostly all while chewing.
I use ladder stands mostly and let the ole skoal fly wherever. Sometimes it hits the rungs of the ladder (sorry for the graphic image to the non chewers). I've had on more than one occasion wherea doe actually licked the rung of the ladder where the spit ended up. They've been right under my stand sniffing the ground where I spit too. They know it's something different (i think), but I don't believe they coorelate it to dangerous.

Don't use tobacco products but I have seen deer eat the tobacco from the field. Don't know if it gives them a buzz or what but I have seen it.
