Default Buck Bomb? Use it?

Anyone have success or is it a gimmick? I'm going to try it in The U.P. for the rifle opener.

Ive used the doe pee and it doesn't scare them away...its a good cover scent IMO...I haven't had a big buck come up to it but little spikes and does sniff around and move on...Id rather have them smell urine than human scent and scare them off...

I tried it for the first time last week in an area that we've photo'd and seen mature bucks, along a creek. I didn't see or hear anything in a 2.5 hr sit, but the next morning we saw two large shooters in the daylight on another lane where the does are always hanging out and where we've never seen big bucks before. My buddy - who swears by BB - thinks it pulled them out the next day. I dunno.

I've used it all in the last five years in coastal plains, sandhills, and now foothills, in hardwoods, cutovers, and pines. Everything from Evercalm to Tinks. A lot of the stuff seemed to actually spook deer. Code Blue Estrus is the only thing I've ever seen actually pull a mature male in, and that was only once. So who knows? I do know that this will be my last season using any of that stuff.

I sometimes use it...I think it works best just to cover scent...but put it out this past saturday and had a button buck come in within a half hour...never had any shooters come in so hard to say if it works

Update!!! I would like to say "it worked". For the first time I have had a deer attractant work in our area of UP Mich. shot a nice 6pt., I have never in my 20 plus yrs of hunting the UP had any attractant work. I'm happy! And I like how it sprays.

I've used it a few times. Nothing different. But then again I'm leaning more and more toward not doing the whole scent blocker, lure, sprays and gadgets things. Play the wind and just hunt. Its a pretty pricey hook for the industry.

What's up hiding the face? I am thinking it was Poached but that is my opinion. I hope not. Post the Pic with the face. Might be under cover police officer maybe.

I have never had any luck with the Buck Bomb spray and I am swearing it off for good but I have had some luck with Code Blue bringing in deer.
