RE: Hog Scents
"I just shot a spike Friday morning in TOSOHATCHEE. There were five trucks parked in the area I hunt and I didn't think I was gonna see much and at 7:15 I was dragging a spike out. It can be done. How about I send you a sample bottle and you try it out. If you don't see anything, no harm done. If you do, send me a picture." Tuff Tusk
WOW !! I was looking at Tosohatchee this year but someone talked me into Citrus. Then....I got invited to hunt on a private farm in the Ozarks for th esame date so I gave my citrus permit away. I would love to try out your scent. Just put some on a tampon and hang it up ??? Ok I'll send you a PM with my address on it. I hunt the Green Swamp WMA. The bow season is over now. When I get back from MO I'll try your scent out. I know where a big mean boar lives. Thanks for the scent and kind reply.
You must have confidence in your scent.

I would like to add. For this man to send me a free sample of his product really shows me that he has great confidence in his product. It sure says alot about his character. If I score or not I would buy this man's product because of his confidence in it. Last year at this WMA a man showed the same enthusiasm toward Primos 'The Can 'call. I bought one. I called in a spike and scored.
I won't be able to trythe scentout until Thanksgiving week. Then...I will sit in my Summit for 3 to 4 days. There are hogs there. I have flushed them out a few times. I shot one 3 years ago. I made one very mad last year and he was snorting at me for quite a while about 20 yds away but the thick palmettos kept me from getting a shot. They have actually pooped on my ladder stand there. Serious big tracks and fat turds.I'm 3/4 mile off the main road.Ed ...if you are interested I can give you detail directions of the spot so you can try too.

RE: Hog Scents
Have you ever hunted the Green Swamp before? If you have ,you know most of the hogs are killed off the 471 entrance along the river. I hunt off of Powder Grade away from the crowd and come to the Green Swamp off of Rock Ridge Road. After I hunt the Thanksgiving break for a few days I'll send you a report of what I saw and an E-mail with detailed. and illuminated tack directions.Can I hang the scent out the morning I get there or should it be hanging in the area a few days before I actually hunt?

RE: Hog Scents
You can do either. I usually use the tampon to get them into a shooting lane or to stop at a particular point along a run, but I spray it on the palmettos a good amount so as they move in the breeze it kinda fans the scent out into the area. Just make sure you don't let it blow back at you because you'll never get the smell off you for the rest of the day and it's awful, but they love it!!! If you know the wind is blowing in the direction they usually come from, you can spray it from the treestand into the air and watch the misting cloud float right to them. We use this method to get'em up out of the beds early, butyou have togetlucky with the wind direction!! Good Luck. I;ll be out thanksgiving weekend as well. Back toTosohatchee.

RE: Hog Scents
Maybe we can hunt together sometime. I'll probalbly need to walk you to my spot the first time anyway. Anyway ,I understand your area is very wet. My place in the Green Swamp is not wet. It's between a large palmetto field and a thin row of pines. I set up in a pine.tree To the immediate west side of the pines is a large bayhead 1 mile by 3 miles. A THICK WET BAYHEAD. A hunter was lost in that bayhead last year and never found.
So if I have a couple of spots I may want to choose the right spot to use the wind for my favor in blowing the scent in the right position. Such as the above scenerio. I would want an east wind to blow the scent in the bayhead to lure the hogs out. When I'm sitting in the pine trees I always here them busting through the palmetos and going into the bayhead. when it is still dark.I have kicked them up by accident at the edge of the palmettos close to the pine edge.

i've used the scents put out by boar hunter magazine in traps with success. i don't still hunt hogs so can't say but i know they'll come to a trap with some sprayed inside. never used that particular brand.
