Does deer scent go bad with age?
I am getting ready to start using some tinks deer scent to draw in some bucks. I have some I used last season, along with several pads I also used last season.
I was wondering if I need to buy new scent or replace the pads this season, or if I can just reuse the stuff from last season. Thanks,
Rick C.

I tried a product from Hoyes Outdoors called scent ammo. It was featured in one of the Bow Hunting mags a couple of years ago and wouldn't you know Wally Worlrd(Walmart) had it on the discount rack at the end of the season. I bought several packages and just finished using it for the first time. It takes the ammonia out of the scent. It really changed the smell and I really think it smell a lot more natural now. They include a PH strip to tell you when its back to normal. You keep it in the container provided and it keeps the ammonia level down. I have never had a lot of luck with scents in the past and don't expect big things now.
My pessimistic side wonders if it is that great of an idea why don’t the scent makers buy the product and include it with their scent!
