Every year I buy commercially produced doe urine and buck tarsal gland deer “attractants.” Every year I don’t seem to use it all and the opened bottles sit on the shelf. I now have quite a collection of various brand names that are at least a year old, some even older.
I’ve read the various articles by the self described deer hunting experts about whether attractants are effective in bringing in deer and/holding them in an area. Some of the comments even include the assertion that it’s just as effective to pee in a scrape yourself !
Just wondering if anyone has actual experience one way or another to state whether or not it’s worth spending a few bucks (no pun intended) on attractants AND do they maintain effectiveness for more than just one season ?
