RE: Favorite Scents
Read an interesting article recently about why scents work.
TheReader's Digest version is that while estrous urine scents may work occasionally, it is the estrous vaginal secretions that really trigger a buck's hormones.
Makes me reconsider spending my money on scents this year as the majority of the products on the market are estrous urine. The urine will get a buck's attention ocasionally, but not 100% of the time and not for the same reasons as the vaginal secretions.

I mostly use Deer Dander as a curiosity lure , and food scented lures to attract the does . Live does are the finest buck lure I can think of .

Tried most all of them, almost quit using scents then I tried Southern Whitetail Scents products. They collect fresh during the current hunting season and do not add preservatives. My boys and I have taken some really nice bucks the last two years. We don't use anything else.
