" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Peak rut in Washington for whitetails is November 19th.  No need to have a range.

yep, one of the best and free scents u can use! its real!! still amazes me that people dont use them more often. Say your in a stand and grunt calling blindly, a mature buck heres the call comes to investigate, see's no movement, smells no buck he leaves with you never knowing he was there. Insert tarsal gland buck circles down wind, heres grunt smells buck you have just fooled 2 of his senses, hopefully he passes by for a shot, another trick get a large white feather and hang from a limb, it will twirl and flicker in the lightest of breezes, it will catch a deers eye, as the flicker of a calm whitetail. u have no fooled eyes,nose and hearing :IBCOOL:

:yeah:
Used to tie them to our boots..
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

My Dad used to cut them off and put them on his hat. Smelled great.
