RE: Tobacco in the stand?
 

I smoke during the off season, and chew while on stand during the hunting season, my brother smokes all the time and I see and harvest more deer, and he will never learn,, I personally don't think it makes a huge difference, but like see lots of deer, so I will not smoke on stand.

Are you old enough to chew? Dont get caught on the bus, deep trouble. I got suspendid for it when I was younger. Or just learn to gut it like the real men do.

I asked this a little while back about snuff and didnt get hardly any responces. I was wonderin if some of the new flavors like wintergreen, mint, berry, and like the new skoal apple would act as an curiosity scent.

interesting thought! if thats true, you know everyone in here is going to start chewing

RE: Tobacco in the stand?
 

I would think for one, that natural flavors wouldnt bother deer one bit, and that using a SPITTER would help majorly, plus if your a minor quit while you can and dont get caught in school!!!

They will smell you a mile away. Anyone who stinks in their stand and sees "lots" of deer would see 10 times more if they controlled their scent.

I would assume that it makes a difference. I always have a dip when I hunt "in a tree stand down by the river." (opposed to "in a van down by the river." -Farley) This one spot I have is on the bank of a river which actually puts my stand over water so I can spit into the river undetected, and it works out great if I have to take a leak. I usually don't dip if I'm not hunting the river spot.

Well i would say it is always a bad idea. Fu#kin gross. Anyway i knew a guy that said that he was smoking and chewing on his stand and he still shot a deer. That was rifle but still. I, first of all dont smoke or chew but that is pretty bad if you cant hold off for a few days in a tree stand. As far as spittin in the river. How high are you. That still leaves a lot of scent. especially if it is windy.
