I've never heard of that. She may of smelled your scent over there where you put the tinks 69. I'll try mine today and let you know how it goes. Haven't tried it all year.

RE: Tinks 69
I've seen this happen 100 times. A doe who is not in heat will almost turn inside out trying to get away from a doe who is in heat. Why? Because, she does not want to be harrassed and chased by a big horny buck when he gets a snootfull of a hot doe.
I have found that live does make a better attractant for big bucks than ANY pee-pee in a bottle. If you really think you need to use some magic estrous scent, and if it will give you the confidence you need to stay out there longer, cut it at least 50% with regular doe urine. This does not seem to put the does on alert nearly as bad, and bucks will still come to investigate.

I've had Does do that to me too; I used to use Tinks 69 in scent canisters set up around my area and scrapes; but after seeing Does bolt from it several timesI now only use Tinks on a rag for a scent trail IDrag through my area and the Does don't seem to mind this as much.

What happened to you is the very reason I will never use any type of estrous lure again. 2 years ago I had a 130" 10 pointer following a doe right by my stand. The doe had already crossed my shooting lane and the 10 pointer was on a string right behind her.Everything was fine and I was about to draw my bowwhen the doe got downwind of my scent bombcontaining doe estrous. She turned inside out and blew and ran down the hill taking my 10 pointer with her. I am 100% certain had Inot had out the lure she would have walked right past me and the 10 pointer would be on my wall watching me type this.I will never use any type of estrous lure again!

These things happen. All deer like people act different to various situations that they encounter. I use the same doe PEE and just prior to shooting a 140" class buck. Ihad four different does stop and smell the ground where I placed a few drops on a trail. His mistake was that he came to sort me out thinking I was another buck. Try different things because you never know!
