Flintlock1776 Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 I tried them last year but nothing noticable. I'll try this year and see if I notice and improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backwoods07 Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Tried em last weekend. First and only hunt this year I didn't see a deer. Coincidence possibly? The farmer was cuttin the beans all over, so that might've been the reason too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zach90 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 I would stick with actual liquid scent or bottled scent. I have heard both good and bad from the sticks. I guess the main thing is to use them during the right stage and time of year. If not used correctly it will just make the deer that much more weiry and suspicious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flintlock1776 Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 (edited) I have used the other brand before, Deer Sense Curiosity All Season sticks. Deer are curious at it for sure. Yesterday I got the Rutrageous Smoke Sticks. The rut is on and I have high hopes!Not sure who came out with the smoking sticks first, I think Deer Sense did so I'll stay with that unless there is a compelling reason that the other brands can be proven are better.
