Default Lets Talk about the Buck Bomb

Anyone use it? It has interested me lately and i have been looking into it. I am a bit confused by the concept ofsending the scent downwind (i know you cant sent scent upwind)to attract deer.i have never used attractants. Is it so powerful that is will conceal your scent too. seems like a gimmick to me anyone have any luck with one.

I used it once last year and had a small 8 come "huff" the can for about 5 minutes. But that's the only time I used it. So it could have been just dumb luck?

i used one opening weekend last year by walking a tree line and squirting puffs on the ground... 2 yotes followed the trail at different times to the empty bottle at the bottom of my tree and got blasted as they walked away!!

I used one a couple years ago. I had an eight pointer come into.. I shot him, but figured it was dumb luck.. Who knows..
I'm always sprayin and rattlin and cannin etc.. Maybe I'll try a year where I just either sit or stalk.. No noise no smells..

Anwyay, try it and let us know how it works...

Bought a can last year with intentions of spraying it on bushes close to my hunting area, then coming back the next morning and do some grunting. Thinking maybe if the area was saturated with the scent of a hot doe may hold some deer in the area. Was going to do this right before the does actually came into heat. Never got around to doing it. Don't have much faith in the use of scents.

My only questions are.......when this thing goes off.....where is the scent going?

Where are you NOT wanting deer to come in from?
