Honestly, I have tried several products and i am sure some work well in diff areas but I have yet to find one that works as well as corn. It is legal in NC so make sure it is legal in your state. People are gonna give you a million answers but remember, what works for Peter may not work for Paul.

Worry more about the wind than your attractant. You can have what ever the best attactant in the world isbut if the wind is pushing your scent through your shooting area you won't see a thing.

It depends on what part of the season it is. In early October if you bowhunt, my guess would be to just stay as scent free as possible. When the rut is about to kick in you can start using estrous to possibly catch bucks scent checking for the first does to come into heat. Round here that time is usually Novemeber 1-November 10 give or take a couple days. Piss works as well as a curiosity scent.. good luck

Think it's called A&P or something, collected locally, frozen on the spot, or H and S scents....
I'd try to find something local, thats frozen,
personally I dont like scents anymore, too time consuming etc...too much work, I think youre better off getting to your spot, on top, etc...and just hunting.
