Scents
I was watching a hunting show the other night and Doug Roberts a.k.a the deer professor was on promoting scents in a stick form (like a deoderant stick)from his company bordercrossingscents.com. I am thinking about ordering VS-1 in a stickand Deer Herd in a Stick. They are quite expensive, but supposedly the estrus and other scents are harvested from his preserve in Michigan. Has anyone out there tried these products? and if so is it really as good as they say it is compared to the synthetic scents you can get?

RE: Scents
I'm trying them this year also, but it's not quite time to use. I'll probably start around the 1st of Nov. By that time the rut won't be too far off and I'd think thats the time it'll be most effective.

RE: Scents
I usually wash all of my clothes with hunting detergent. after that I throw it in a non scented garbage bag and cut a few spruce or pine limbs from the yard tree and throw them in with my clothes. I mostly hunt my friends dairy farms so I make a point to dress when I get out of my vehicle and head straight for the barn. I tell you what...you get that farm smell on you and it's a good cover scent. You have to figure most of the deer in the area are used to smelling that all to familiar barn smell. I have had more deer walk up to mewithin yardshaving neverbusted me. If I am walking long distance I carry my stuff in and then dress especially if it's cold out. Once you sweatunless you have polypropelene as a base layer you are going to get cold real fast. Also hunting at deer camp with the wood stove going I always take my main layer off and bag it once i am off stand.
