Do you use doe in estrous scent?

[Herd Buck]

Seems pretty mixed probably give it a try and see what happens… I’ll post my results 

[smittty]

I’ve had mixed results but never really used synthetic

I can tell u this. I hunt my buddies property. During the rut he will kill a buck during the rut. I cut his hocks off his back legs and hang them in a tree . Mature bucks will destroy them. They sniff em then destroy the tree I hang them from. It’s amazing.

No scent for me.

What date do you all begin using estrous scent?

Be careful as you can no longer use natural deer lures in nj.  As dumb as it sounds that could get u jammed up

Buckfever scents the original synthetic scents, I had over many years success I mean by not spooking deer,  and mature bucks are drawn too it. My buck from last year was on camera numerous times sniffing it

You are allowed to say his name.  You know it is killing you not to mention him by name.

I tried it no luck had a few doe come in and they ignored it no bucks showed up and nothing on camera checking it out after I left next day or two

I have better luck peeing in a scrape myself

I never tried bee but I do occasionally take a crap and hang a piece of wiped paper from the tree limb above

[tpr1921]

I don't use any.

Over the years I have come to the realization that being a ghost is the best way. No scents at all. Go in like a ghost. Leave like a ghost.

Deer are curious.. more often than not I think they get spooked by scents hanging in trees. Deer don’t piss up in trees yet….. I put scent on the ground every time never had any trouble with deer acting weird and have had good trail cam pics from using estrous and buck urine 

They sure are curious!!  I hunted Wednesday at the great swamp and it was warm. I climbed a tree and realized it was not good for the wind….I moved bout 30 yds  and I had button buck come out and sniff the tree I had climbed…then big momma doezilla came out and did same things …and left…& came back again to sniff it….they both were underneath me and never winded me. I had no cover or other scent on me other than my sweaty stanky self!!

I have had luck with Tinks69….now the dumbass CWD rules only allow synthetic deer piss. SMH

[3Blade]

Never had luck with them. I stopped using them years ago

[Bushnlo]

Yes mostly in mock scrapes

you need to buy only synthetic because real deer urine is illegal to use in NJ

The best synthetic lures you can buy is from signal 11 scents!It’s made right here in NJ and works better then real deer urine. I used to use Buck fever synthetic a lot until I met steve from signal 11 and have never looked back. His stuff is twice as good as the buck fever synthetic!

bucks hit my signal 11 mock scrapes every day!
