Hey everyone I was wondering does anyone here who hunts state land have any sucess with using any of the deer lure scents or rattling ?? I have had A season the last 5 years and have yet to bring ina buck with any scents or rattling and I know its not me becasue when I Bow hunt stae land I see more than I can count, so are they just knowladgable of scent due to past years of hunting pressure or am I just doing something wrong ???
any and all feedback would be greatly appriciated Thanks

I rarely ever use scents went hunting State land in Ct while hunting shotgun..I usuallyget in the woods early and set up and let the other hunters push um to me.

thanks for th einfo, I appriciate it, yup I think I will do the same

Do you use them durring Bow season or only on private land

I hunt State land and Ido use scents.I watched a 6 point nose right up tothe scent wickthen lay down a scrape throwing dirt and leaves 15 feet. I swear by it. It's Wildlife Research and the bottle has a date and says "use in the calender year." As far as rattling, no luck there "yet" and as far as the calls, I have. I had a button walk up on me, bust me then take off. I grunted a few times and he turned right around and came right back. Too small to shoot but I guess it was a familiar voice to him. A buddy of mine swears by using the grunt call along with the bleat can pretty much at the same time. I've had no luck there either. Good luck this season, the 14th is only days away.
