Heading over on the 6th, its about a week early but we still usually get some decent bucks, just have to be more patient and look a little bit harder.
Thinking about using some doe estrus scent, we never have used any kind of scent attractant before, thoughts  :dunno:

Honestly I usually laugh at those things.  I suppose they have their use, but not in my style of hunting.  I'd rather put that money into something more meaningful.

I drink it and then pee in buck scrapes...  Nothin' works better...   :tup:

if  your not using scents on scrapes or mock scrapes your missing out or limiting yourself. They work! maybe certain scents dont, but there is some quality stuff out there
