Default SCENTS

I am Curios how many People Either use or Do Not use Scent Attractants suck as Tinks 69, Code Blue Estrus, Deer Dander, ECT ECT (to many to LIst) . and Are Actually Sucessfull, with Harvesting adeer past the 2-3 year mark. It sems like I only attract 1-2 year deer with scents and Never a truely Mature SO I would like to know how everyone else thinks about this topic.

Once in a blue moon it works.

I've seen it work, I've seen doe turn inside out and flee when smelling it. I've seen bucks ignore it or sneak off.

I gotta tell ya I bougth some Tinks last year, used it twice with no results.

Froze over the summer and brought it out about a week ago. Used it for the first time last Friday and had a doe and fawn come right to it just at first light.

Then a buck I rattled in came to it, got up on his hind legs and hit it off the twig. Not 15 minutes later I had a different buck come to the other scent wick and sniff it aswell.

Never had that much deer activity circled around scents. But then agian, what works one day may (and with my luck) won't work tommorow.
