Used predator bomb once, all it did is make my hand stink :bash:  If it really works Im game though, probaly a must for stand hunting.

I had one one time (my in-laws thought it was a good gift) carried it around in my pack.
I had a nice bull standing 50 yards down wind of me, and thought I would give him a dose (Cow-in-Heat)....
Pushed the button on the damn thing...  :bdid:
P-P-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-H-H-H-H !  :yike: could not get it to stop !  :bash: loudest frigging thing I have ever heard as a scent dispersal unit.
Sure got his attention, but not in the way I wanted.....
(but then again, I was not following directions....)
would not buy one....

I personally don't use scents.  I just feel weird using them lol, the thought of commercially bought urine and estrus is just strange to me.  I step in fresh poo though  :chuckle:, sounds funny but I actually do that.  Ill smear elk poo all over the bottom and side of my boots.  Anyway, I do know a guy who uses wafers and swears by them.
