Last year, both my son and I had luck with it getting does, one of which walked right by me in a ground blind. My son got his deer from a tree stand. During the rut, however, a very nice buck ID'd me twice in the same area on two occasions when I had it on. Nothing like being in a ground blind and having a big buck staring at you 15 ft away. So for me, mixed results. I don't think it scares deer, but if it allows them to focus on you, that is not so great.

Thanks
I have had similar experience, I have also had big bucks just a few yards away, and feel like if they get that close they have not smelled you, but it will not be to long before they see you. imagine if when you walked into your bedroom there was an item there, that was not in there last time you walked by, it wouldn't be long before you freaked. Thanks again for the post, its great to hear from other hunters.
