Deer scents
 

Has anyone tried the scent RealDeer? It's supposed to smell like a deer. Not urine based, just the smell of a live deer.
I tried it last year for the 1st time. I just slung it from my tree stand all around the tree. GET THIS...I was watching two does approx. 125 yards away and heard a loud snap behind me. I thought to myself that's too loud to be a deer and didn't turn around because I didn't want to lose sight of the 2 does. After the does walked out of sight (which had to be at least 2 minutes) I looked directly down from the tree and there was a beautiful 8 pointer right below me! He was walking away and by the time I got my bow and drew back I had a tough andhurried shot and blew it. Lord knows if I'll ever see another deer like that one. BUT thequestionis, was it the RealDeer that kept him by my stand so long? It's still haunting me!

Realdeer is the real thing! I have used it for three years now and it flat out works.You don't need a lot and and you want to be careful about how often you use the same lure from the same stand site.If you have deer come in to a lure a couple of times and they are not spooked or shot the effect of your lure will diminish,this will not be the case if you have different deer coming through your area,but the resident deer will become wise to it
