Just wondering if any of you guys have noticed that human pee doesn't seem to affect deer activity in the area. I had been a firm believer in not peeing near your stand until last year. I had a place that I always evacuated myself at and one day while walking out at dusk I looked up and there was a bit 10 point making a scrape in my "territory"! Of course other animals were probably scent marking on top of me but this year I ran another experiment. My stand was overlooking 3 HUGE scrapes and one night I had to go so bad I could taste it. I went in the scrape and then covered it up with leaves, the next morning I showed up and the scrape was twice as large and you could smell the rut smell from the deer who worked the scrap. That morning I rattled in a couple nice bucks. Was it luck or did the freshly wetted scrape help?!?!
After that day I whizzed in the scrape pretty much every time, I eventually took a decent buck right over the same scrape. What are your conclusions & opinions??
