Any strongly scented soap... shove a stick into it and stab it in the ground near your tree, or put the soap in an old stocking, or a onion bag (netted) and hang it from a branch.
The scent is definitely not from nature, and will spook off the deer.
Good luck

I wrote this article in 2001. On any given day someone at work will ask me if I've had any success in my hunting. I know that what they're really asking me is whether I've filled my freezer with venison, or not. When I tell them that I haven't taken a deer yet, I frequently get one of those smiles t...

I haven't been seeing any of this on the news. That's all we see is Obama. Yes, it sounds like your garbage pick up guys have a nasty job, but I'd do a nasty 4 to 5 hour job for 10 hours pay. Contracting this out is what should be done. It's called free enterprise. I don't know how you all feel abou...

I appreciate all the advice here. After reading your responses and going back to the Excalibur page, I'm leaning toward the Vortex, but I think that I'll head down to the sports shop and shoot one before spending the money. Thanks for the words of advice and for the welcome. I'll be in here doing a ...

Hi, I'm new here. I've been a bow hunter for 30 years, and figured that I'd remain a bow hunter for as long as I could pull back the compound. 3 back surgeries later, I find that bow hunting is going to have to be different. The compound is no longer an option. I've been doing a lot of research and ...
