Tag: Deer Scents

Picking out a deer scent from dozens of choices is about as confusing as trying to purchase the right perfume for the leading lady in your life. Do your research. You want to purchase high-quality, fresh scent, not leftovers from last year as they could break down and spook deer. Some manufacturers claim their urine is from a single doe or buck. Others mix and match while some even have concocted synthetic versions. If your budget allows, go with those that fill bottles from a single deer, but truth be known, most of my experience with scents is with bottles filled in community whitetail restrooms. As long as the urine smells fresh and doesn't have an ammonia tinge to it you should be OK.  As you shop look for bottles that dispense with a misting nozzle to deposit a diversion in shooting lanes. If you're re-filling mock scrape dispensers no mister is needed. Keep any purchase cool and out of direct sunlight.  This applies to all animal scents!
