We all have our tactics.... My tactic.... I eat peanut butter and honey sandwiches while hunting as opposed to a ham sandwich... I think its a great tactic...
Here is my line of thinking on eating the PB and honey sandwiches....
1)I use special soaps and cover scents for my body but what about my breath....(could buy the special hunter toothpaste and mints I guess)
2)I may get hungry in the stand and need a good filling snack
3)I'm cheep
4)PB and Honey are mixed together and used as bait(where legal) with great success... (you know...those homemade drip cans or nail a jar to a tree) Deer love this mix
Soooo.... eat PB and honey sandwiches because it will cover the human breath stink, fill your tummy, attract deer with your breath possibly(well at least it wont scare them away), and you get a cover scent,food, and deer attractant for the price of a jar of PB,honey, and a loaf of bread... see what I'm saying?
I do this all the time and I've had deer mosey along downwind of me. not exactly come up and be like oh yay! peanutbutter and honey!!! but mosey along like nothing was wrong....
is this truly a stupid idea? I can see how it might interfere with scent lures but... who puts scent lures on their body.
oh and if you don't eat it that day you can save it and eat it the next day
