What is the best way to attract deer in mid november

Be out in the woods...

Agreed. If you new to hunting in general starting reading and getting in the woods for experience. There is alot of info (good and bad) on the net. Best thing you can do though is get out there and learn.

Get out in the woods and always be ready. With the rut kicking in there's no telling when or what is gonna go past you.

Incredible.

How would a person simply being in the woods ATTRACT deer?

Your answer is incorrect. So incorrect I have no other choice but to give you a F and sentence you to study hall.

In the woods I hunt - a deer seeing, hearing, smelling or even suspecting a human is not attracted - it goes away.


Ways TO attract deer include scents, grunting or calling, rattling, mock scrapes, mock rubs, food plots, decoys and (where legal) baiting.

What I should of asked is it better to use a call or a rattle bag during the rut.

You can use both. I've never been a big fan of calls however. I wouldn't use a grunt call if a buck isn't in sight but a rattle I would. Just don't be excessive with it.

That right there is FUNNY! lmao But, he speaks the truth.

If a deer even suspects that something is amiss, it is heading for the next time zone at warp speed. Scout the area that you plan to hunt. don't stink up the area with perfumed soaps and aftershave. The list goes on. They can see and hear you a mile away and smell you further. Sit on a ridge sometime, and watch other "hunters". They are pushing the deer ahead of them, not intentionally. The deer then circle back behind them to where they origionally were, and they never saw them. As stated, there is a lot of good info on this site and others, if you want to look.

A hot doe lol

10 - 4 to that. Hunt the does from Halloween till mid December.

Dont bother with scents unless you get them straight from a processing plant from a real deer like tarsal glands. I have even taken bladders from does before as well. Every time I use crap like Tinks I never see a damn thing. There is a post here somewhere where people talk about using their own urine on scrapes and mock scrapes and having it work better than that bottled stuff you get at Wal-mart or your local hunting store. I think theres another one about how overhyped most hunting products are like calls and stuff like that. Read both of those there was some good info in them.

I agree with cypress - to a point. All deer can be very curious and sometimes they are curious enough about the store bought scents.

But nothing tops stuff fresh from a deer farm. If you don't keep it cool it can turn to ammonia - which isn't good

I am a nother one for using my own urine. I have seen mock scrapes work with it an I have never had it bother a deer. I do not pee in a cut for no one not even a deer.
