A friend of mine (and great hunter) told me he sometimes makes mock scrapes by roughing the ground up and peeing on it--claims it has worked. Beats me if true or not.
The old myth about "Wounding MORE deer for a slow death with head shots" is nonsense.
Did you hang a lick branch as well? I think I will try this next season--lord knows I gotta get rid of that 2:00 am coffee anyway loltried mock scrapes with my own urine and definitely found tracks in them afterward - so I don't think urine smell scares them off.
throat slit - if the heart ain't pumping - how much do you really drain?
I would imagine the urine smell scaring deer would be tied to how spooked the deer really were at the time
My dad was at a small town sporting goods store and this guy came in all excited that he finally shot his first turkey. The guys walked out to his truck where they saw he shot a turkey buzzard.
It is the responsibility of the person taking the shot to insure a proper target and background.
Doesn't this sorta imply you took the less than certain kill shot on your intended target to begin with??Quote:

He's supposed to be able to pick out a motionless camoflaged hunter in a treeline up to a mile away? I couldn't do that, could you?
I doubt I could see him ..... unless he was wearing ....... wait for it ....... hunter orange.
If I fail to see someone who was not wearing hunter orange, and my bullet (pass-through or a miss, whatever) hits him ..... I'd call that unfortunate, but not my fault at all. There's a reason for the Hunter Orange regs.
