Default Spray now or later ?

When hunting with estrus lure, Is it ok to start spraying a couple of weeks ahead of time or only use it the day you are hunting? What do you think? Thanks

10 years ago a friend would spray estrus lure at his stands for about 4 weeks before opening day. He said the buck would come back looking for the doe after he sprayed, opening day he got a nice 8 pointer. Has any one ever done this?

I have never tried this? but it doesn't seem like it would hurt to do it. I have always used it during my hunt.

When you think about a sent drip for buck scrapes, it sounds like it may work the same way. Try it, I don't think it would hurt.

Good luck!

i tried one of those scent drippers it was supposed to use 1oz. of scent every 4-5 days it always emptied in 1 day i think its supposed to work only when it heats up and cools off and not in between .
but im convinced every little temp. change made it start working so it might start working 10+ times per day.my 2 cents hope it helps.
