Another Estrus And Cover Scent Question

Featured Replies

I'm using wildlife golden estrus this year and with I think wildlife pine spray scent that I place on wicks(dipped in bottle of scent) for my cover on was wondering should I place out my pine wicks along with my scent bombs??

I usually place out 3 bombs along with 3 pine wicks. They say the spray shouldn't be sprayed on clothes and my stand I leave in woods so I might just take one dipped wick and safety pin it to my stand when I'm in my stand?

I was just curious could I be over doing the estrus and cover scent all together??

When yall do estrus do you place out your cover as well??

It was a mild nov. and I had been using doe in heat to freshen a scrap he made , on my way out. Third day he came in nose down and bam... Scent rags, bandannas or old t shirts work, I have been dragging a scent trail and been followed ( before daylight ) which is a little worrisome ( and was ) it can help though.. Depending...

Yes there is pine and oh yes I do a drag. Even if I can't pull a deer I can fool a dog lol

I'm just not sure if they notice something different, putting them in alert, or just being exposed by having two different scent at the same time.

Worrisome? And was? Do we have a story to share?? Please do if do!!
