[QUOTE="Lungdeflator, post: 236067, member: 5163"] Guy- I've used just about every doe/buck lure out there. For mock scrapes in a scrape dripper, I prefer a synthetic, doesn't break down as quickly as the real stuff when its in a dripper for a couple weeks. For doe estrous/pee lures, I seem to get the Golden Estrous more often than not. Maybe because it is the most readily available (Scheels in minot doesn't have a good variety). My dad and I have also had decent luck with, don't laugh, the Tinks Smokin Sticks! They are sometimes hard to find, and need a bucket or something to contain the scent a little bit when its windy, but I think we have had more bucks come in to the smokin sticks than any other scent. One thing I'd like to try more is keeping the estrous/pee scent warm. I think the scent carries farther when its warm and presents as "fresher". Not scientific by any means but IMO. Scents are just like calling/decoying. When they work its awesome and you feel like the hero. When they don't work, oh well. When they just straight up spook deer, it really sucks. The deer have to be in the right mood, just doesn't work if they aren't. [/QUOTE]
