I have read up on tips and tricks, but I always like to hear from real people in addition to magazine articles.
I have been deer hunting enough times that I call myself a hunter, but not so many that I call myself an expert. I have farm that I can hunt in western Virginia. I have three spots in total, two spots are set up with salt licks. One spot is in a spot where a deer trail crosses a little-used human trail. I have a blind set up made of stacked sticks, just high enough to provide be a little cover when I am leaning against a tree. My second spot is where several trails meet, with another stick blind. Third spot is just on a field where I have seen a lot of deer.
I bought some new camo. I couldn't afford scent lock, but I do keep my hunting clothes in a large tuberware container with some cedar and pine shavings. I am not sure how much that would really help.
What scents, if any, do you guys use? I have read that different ones work during different parts of the season.
Should I give rattling a shot?
Any other suggestions?
