Poop sniffing does
 

My buddy and I were at the cabin hunting last weekend. In between morning and afternoon hunts, we both gave birth to baby ruth' s on the portable commode we moved from the trailer site, since the bathrooms, and water for that matter, won' t be installed for a year or more. Anyway, we were out front talking when we heard footfalls in the leaves on the other side of the cabin. Three does were approaching, and took interest in the commode, sniffing it and moving in cautiously. I tried to film my buddy getting a bowshot at one as they sauntered through, but they came through too far back in the woods. Seems to me they were more curious than panicked by the poo. I firmly believe that certain smells can either draw curiousity or fear, depending on the deer' s demeanor. These hadn' t received hunting pressure and were more likely curious. If it were a month later, it might be a different story...

You pretty much hit on it when you said curiosity.....if they can' t determine or associate human with certain oders then they are not preprogrammed to fear or flee....that' s when curiosity scents can work...I prefer not to use scents....I go in as scentless as possible because I believe for each deer you might draw on curiosity, there are two that might move off and those are odds I won' t take.

Holy crap Doug! Put it in a fancy bottle , slap an attractive " IT WORKS" label on it and start selling your new attractant scent!:D Someone somewhere will buy it!

The thing of it was, I saw only two deer while hunting that morning (almost no acorns for the second year in a row). I would have had a better chance if I took my bow with me to the commode at 12:00 and waited!
