Who has pissed out of their stand?

RE: Who has pissed out of their stand?
I've done it many times, and I'll do it again. I've also had deer come right in and smell it. Last year I shot a doe that was smelling a scrape I pissed in. It doesn't seem to bother the deer around me, they almost seem curious. Then again, maybe they're just used to my smell b/c I piss outside so much. LOL

Deer seem curious around me as well. They sniff it, then continue whatever they were doing.
As a matter of fact, lol...my buddy dropped a duece next to my stand one day (he hunted it in the morning, then I went there in the afternoon). I shot an 8 point that evening, while he was literally standing next to it.
I'm guessing it's just like all human scents. If you're in an area where deer don't see/smell people often, they probably more than likely spook..or at least get jumpy. I'm in an area close to many farms with kids playing, I'm close to a huge campground in a woods, and close to a large lake with boaters 9mo out of the year. The deer know human scents in my hunting ground...so I don't fear to whip it out and piss whenever I feel the need.

I have done it once on my very first bow hunt ever and had a doe walk out at about 20 yards and watch me. I tried getting to my bow while still hanging out but she ended up spooking and moving down the road about 100 yards or so. But letting it go from the stand will spook a lot less than having to climb down and back up the stand.

Thats how I check the wind direction
Honetly I have never pee'd in, around, or anywhere near my stand, notsure it would alert deer or not, I just take every precaution I can. But if youre cool with it, let er rip!

My buddy does it all the time and I thought it was wrong until last night. He peed on his tree on our way in and an hour later I watched a nice buck walk right up to the tree he was in and pee on the bottom of it. Male dogs will do it so I guess it makes sense. I am no longer scared, I honestly wished I had to go this afternoon on my way in.

Let er rip....The deer cannot tell it is humane urine. I made a scrape the otherday and peed in it to see if deer would use it and we got a picture of a doe refreshing the scrape i made with my own pee. It was really cool. I believe Mo Bow has the pics since it was his camera.

RE: Who has pissed out of their stand?
Last weekend I was hunting in a ground blind. I had to go so I unzipped a window and went right there. Didnt seem to do anything because about 10 minutes later I had a doe walk through 25 yards away from me, then 5 minutes later a 4 point buck walks about 15 yards away from me.

Put my arrow through this little guy the sixth time I saw him... on public land. Did I mention I piss out of all my stands? The fifth time I saw him, he walked right under me -- but it was at dusk and I couldn't see my pins. He stopped directly underneath me, where I had pissed an hour before. He didn't even take an extra sniff.
