Default Active Scrape

When is the right time to put Active Scrape out? I have never used it, but want to try it this yr.

It works well nearly anytime , but best during the pre rut through to peak rut . Use it in a dripper , and gradually add some estrous pee as the rut progresses .

Just like kevin1 said use the Dipper and put a little doe in heat as the rut progresses.
This stuff works great I use it every season.

Thanks for the replys. Are you talking aboutadding a few drops of the estrous pee to the actual scrape, or in the the bag with the original fluid? Thanks again

Not to get off topic here, but I have never used a dripper. What are your opinions on them?

In the scrape not the dripper, Whenever you fressen your scrape always put a few drop of estrous pee in the scrape not the dripper.

They work when used properly . If you have a buck that won't come in after sunrise this is one method that may cause him to linger awhile longer trying to connect with the doe that he thinks is peeing in his scrape . If nothing else it gets deer to stop and investigate for the crucial two or threeseconds that it takes you to get your sights on them . BTW , you can also use them to dispense curiosity and food type lures . This is a good tactic for late season deer .
