Are there any signs that the rut is approaching in your area? I would tend to think that using those tactics too early may shun deer away...at least the more mature bucks. Maybe I am giving the deer a little more credit than deserved but something like that, too early may not seem right to them and keep them away.
Others, am I wrong?

He could start off with regular Doe P,(non estrous) and see what happens.
Regular P (non estrous) will draw them up to.

Since some of the mature does have already entered estrous it probably wouldn't hurt, but don't spray it with a fire hose. I'd use it on a drag rag for now, save the buck bombs and drippers for next weekend.
