While hunting I use Skoal Apple flavor as food source scent.  At least that is what I keep saying to my self.  Any other time I cure my nicotine addiction with Copenhagen.

chewed Copenhagen for 21 years.  I quit 3 years ago, but still miss it like crazy while I'm deer hunting or playing golf.  I definitely don't have any more deer in bow range since I quit.  I really think it might have even helped.  I have promised my wife and kids that I won't do it anymore, so I won't.  Still miss it like crazy, though.  It is the nectar of the gods.  One of life's great injustices that it is bad for you.

never had a deer that spooked when smelling  copenhagen that I had spit on the ground, but im sure results will vary

Ha! Funny story. Last fall never had a shot opportunity during archery season. Saw bucks, but not within range. I'm a VERY occasional chewer...only REDMAN cuz its weak! On stand with my recurve opening day of shotgun. Decided to put a big wad in to pass time and relax. Spit right on the damn ground not expecting to see a damn thing. Just chilling out.  8 a.m., young 3 point buck comes right up to me sniffing, ends up in my freezer!

Nomad...you spit one time every day at 10AM? Are you sure you spelled spit correctly?

It would really be bad if he dosent get out of bed till 11:00 AM.LOL

Had a dip in this evening while hunting on the ground , had a nice doe with in 10-15 yards of me but to my right so I couldnt get a shot but she didnt pick me off Due to smell . I took a nice doe 2 weeks ago from a tree stand with a dip in and she nor the 3 does with her smelled the dip and came as close as 10 yards  at diffrent times . Saying all that I hope I can post that I have QUIT one day myself as it is a deadly habit .

chewed skoal mint and bow hunted for 35 years Have shot alot of deer.

wnen i was a youngin i chewed Redman cause i heard the older bucks liked the molasses in it.I dip now,pour the molasses on my boots. like anythingelse that taste good,probably not good for you.harvested plenty with a chew on board.

Used to chew Levi  for many years  Only used it when hunting or fishing. NEVER  spooked the deer or other game  Deer and other game LOVE IT '.
Once years ago  when I still smoked cigarettes  Dropped a lit one from the stand  when I spotted a herd of deer about 80 yards away   The lead doe  chanced directions  to the scent of the burning cig and came right into it,  and then tried to eat it  LIT   she got a  shock  but DEER love tobacco .

Barry,
  Laughed out loud at your question!

i chew when i hunt also.  i can't say it hurts anything either.  last year i sat in a tree all day. i'm talking from sunrise to sunset. i chewed a lot that day. right at dark i had 2 does come and lick up all that spit under my tree.  it got to be an hour after dark and i had to come down and run them off. seems to me that they loved it as much as me.

I chew/chewed (depending on when you ask me) Levi Garrett.  About the only way it'll hurt is if you forget to move the chaw over to your non-anchor side.  That big lump will mess up your anchor point and throw off your shot.  Trust me.

Tried it several times...made me dizzy!

         

I chewed a can a day and when I quit in 2000 I gained 60 pounds in 17 minutes. Now I've lost 70 pounds and I have a bunch of Levis 501 jeans with circles on the back pocket.

Bow hunting has not gotten easier.

Ya know if you put that stff where the sun don't shine it'll get in yer blood stream quicker!

Yea never thought about that one bro...

Too much information,
