Do any of you have any luck with deer scents? If so, what kind? I drank 3 bottles of the stuff the other day and didn't see nothin.
I have had better luck with Buckrut scents than Doe in heat scents. I think Bucks do not like the idea of another Buck in his home range?
I have also seen both Doe and Bucks respond well to human urine. :readit: :saywhat: :thumbsup:
i used to when we had some deer around. worked great. interdidgital glad with mature doe estus. bob kirschners(Roam) plus his other stuff.
Do you guys not get the joke? :scared:
Ya mean youre not supposed to drink that stuff??
No really, I tried many kinds of scents. Can't say they work. Never had bad luck such as spooking deer. I tried the super expensive stuff with no luck at all.
:laughing:
On a whim I used Buck Bomb to create a scent trail the other day. I never used scents before but after using it i had a mature 8 pointer come right under my stand. Unfortunately I couldn't get a shot but I now have faith in using doe in heat scents.
The thought of drinking it is just silly! Everybody knows you pour it over your head!!
:knothead:
:knothead: In all seriousness though, I use Mrs. Doe Pee, made right here in Iowa using estrous doe urine, works pretty well for me but unfortunately it is a little on the pricey side. I bought one bottle from one of the local archery shops for $27.99 ($17.99 cheaper than Scheels!)
Ha Ha Ha! on the other side,I use hock pads from other dear kills(or I take them off fresh road kills) and make a drag line and just drag them in and hang up in a tree.I keep them separate(not mixing two different deer pads) in plastic bags and freeze them when I am not using them.
Hey! Don't ya know the stuff makes great energy drinks. :saywhat: :goldtooth:
I just mix it in my coffee during deer season... Don't have near the wang that way! :D
I do use regular doe urine as a cover scent on occasion.

Lots of folks here in Texas are raving about "Franks, doe in heat urine". It's like 10.95 for 2fluid ozs.
I have had some success with scent wafers and buck bombs, but can't say any really seemed in a rush to check them out.
I have been putting the new solid deodorant type scents under my arms here lately. I haven't had any luck in the woods or at home. :dunno:
Ive watched a guy rub some end of trail 307 on a blow pop and leave it on the railing at denton hill as a joke and watched a fella un wrap it and start sucking on the blow pop and not notice..
Okay -- that was funny!
James valley gel on wheat bread for me.
I have a friend I'm not quite sure about- He always puts estrus lure on his handkerchief? :biglaugh:
Since I've been off bowhunting and the wife has a few days off from work....thought I could get her "In the mood"... :rolleyes:
So...took some James Valley Doe lure, rubbed it on instead of my usual cologne :eek: Now...I can't get any family members to come within 100 yds of me especially the wife! :scared:
I will say this...my tear ducts have been running pretty steady and no more sinus problems... :laughing:
thanks for the input and the fun that went with it.
On a serious note, the Fitzgeral Deer Dander works and works great. Its all i use
How do you use that deer dander, directly on your clothes or sent pads, drag, other. Would be thankfull for the low down as I'v used it before on myself, but can't remember if it did me any good. I was thinking about using it this year but didn't.
Call Smokey with your questions....he can explain it a lot better than me....he's got the Wensels on his stuff...and Gene is making scent wicks with Smokeys and rope.....they got pics and video. And, they are suppose to have an article coming out soon about it.
I had a really nice freak buck come into some other bucks scrape just Yesterday morning and check out the pre orbital glad lure I'd put on the licking branch with a stick.
Could not believe the way he entered and exited that I could not get a shot. Came straight to me, walked under my stand and turned away from me going directly away from be and me stuck behind the tree. Just not enough room to get away for the tree for a shot.
Anyhow...Smokey knows his stuff...and it VERY knowledgeable and is a trapper....those guys know scents.

Deer dander works for me but I have used code red this year and had great results ,no monster buck yet but it draws them in. Don
I have better luck with buckrutting HS BUCKRUT waffer scents, but I do mostly rattling. seens to work great I have quite a number of buck come in on the ground and tree stands.
I spray it on boots /legs on walk in. Spray around shot locations , and when sitting stay a couple around my location.
I don't buy into the scent hype but this stuff works and has for years for me
Of all the things I've tried, this has worked the best for me. As for commercial deer lures Smokey's is the way to go.

Brianlocal3,,, do you notice if the deer dander goes bad? I still have some from last season and was wondering if I should try it again. also hows that other stuff they sell "doe in need" I think,, still have some of that too.
I have not used the doe in need so sorry but no help. And I'm not sure about the going bad ether. I'm pretty liberal with it and I also use it when coyote hunting so it goes fast. I like their VK also.
A friend of mine uses whatever is on sale. He uses a drag line and does the figure 8 in front of his stand. He has good luck doing it. Maybe it has a lot to do with scent controll.
