Tip 2Use buck urine during the early season to take advantage of a buck’s territorial instincts. The scent a doe in season is confusing in early October, but buck scent will always peak curiosity.
Tip 3Soak a rag in estrous doe urine and drag to stand during rut. Watch them come!
Tip 4

Tip 5To discourage moisture in barrel during damp weather, apply a piece of electrical tape over the end of the barrel. You simply shoot through the tape when it’s time to harvest that buck.
Tip 6One of the deadliest scent set-ups defies the accepted rule of playing the wind. Take a long strip of timber and cover with the wind blowing along the length of it (blowing from one end to the other). On the windy end, pour some Code Blue at several areas, then set up high in a tree stand just on the edge of the timber. If you’re set up high enough, your human odor should flow above the deer.
Tip 7In a low tree, practice setting up and taking down your tree stand before the season. Know your stand.
Tip 8Check out your hunting area online by typing “aerial photos” in your search engine.
Tip 9
Avoid trimming shooting lanes and disturbing your hunting area during the season. Clear shooting lanes during the summer.

Tip 10
Make a mock scrape. Wearing surgical glove, take a stick and scuff the leaves off of an area about the size of a large dinner plate. Pour some deer droppings from Code Blue Real Scrape onto the area, then pour some Code Blue Doe Estrous over it.
