This past Spring while turkey hunting, me and my two hunting buddies where taking a snack break and sitting against some trees. I walk a couple yards off path to use the bathroom and hear one of my buddies start coughing to get my attention. As I am standing there relieving myself I look over my shoulder and see three does walking straight towards my at 15 yards. This is why I now believe that hunting is pure chance of being in the right place at the right time.

Ha! Maybe thats an idea for a new scent control product, acorn infused water for pee attraction! Why the bad attitude toward asparagus?

I get your arguement but the truth is people aren't in the woods every day with them. They know when people are in certain areas it means no good exspecially the older smart deer. I've seen deer in fields with coyotes at night so let me ask you have you ever seen a deer in a field with a person at night? No because people present a much bigger threat than coyotes. I'm sure a deer is on high alert when it comes across fresh coyote pee in the spring when she has a fawn near by. Same for people the deer know the times of years when they need to watch out for people in the woods. They could care less about people in the summer and spring months as you can walk across a field turkey huntin and they just watch you but when it comes to huntin season they won't look at you in that field for more than a couple seconds most of the time........ Also why put your scent at risk when you can just use doe urine instead to attract deer? Deer are always on alert when they know a predator has been recently in the area, heck deer are on alert almost their whole lives, they are a prey species and they know it. It just depends on the time and situation of it and how deer will react to it. They experience it every day, they know what the norm is, when a predator is at high risk or low risk, and big bucks don't get big by going and checking out every humans scent/pee. Is human scent worse, yes, but a fresh pee can't be far behind. WCL

I've peed out of my stand for years and had plenty of during around after doing so. The only down side is the dribble on my boots.

I read somewhere that testosterone is testosterone - deer can't tell the difference if it's human or animal, and a buck will feel challenged by it. I can't prove it - maybe this year I will have a chance to try it out. Just bought my first treestand - I've been a ground hunter until this year, and I'm NOT climbing all the way down just to wizz...

I do! I actually shot a doe after she walked right under my stand after I just went pee, she didn't even stop at it just kept going about another 10yds and I dropped her. So PEE away!

i did it and 10 mins later i had a buck walk by and it did not bother him

I have never had a problem with it.

Remind me not to check out your trail cam pics :biggrin:

Ain't that the truth!
