Too pee or not too pee.......

[jimneye]

There are some days while in the stand that the deer are moving and you wish you hadn't drank that last cup of coffee.  What do you do, pee from your tree, or pack up and leave to relieve your self?  Just wondering, does human urin alarm deer?  

[CrisW.]

I have had the same question.  I figure when I get to dancing not only is not too safe, it would probably attract more negative publicity than the pee.  i have had a doe come and smell where I just peed below a tree one time.

[Deadsmple]

Go ahead and pee. In my opinion the deer don't mind at all. One of my hunting buddies has a weak bladder so he has to go all the time, and we have seen no ill effects.

I completely emptied my bladder into a scrape located at the corner of a field / woodlot stand a couple nights ago.   When I returned a couple days later, it had been worked over VERY well.

I don't think it really matters.

Third option would be to bring a urine bottle or a "spare bladder". I have also let fly from the stand and then had deer under me within a half hour.

Just don't hit your steps or climbing rope.

They use to sell  some sort of "spare bladder" type container especially for urine. Does anyone know if they still do and who sells it?

Pee, I have seen no ill effect on the deer. Shawn

I had a doe give me a great broadside shot two nights ago when she stopped to smell mine about 6 yards from me she just went about her business after. It was really to bad it's buck only right now.

That is one of the sickest things that I have seen in the woods in recent times are those bladder bags.  I went to a bear camp this spring and in the bait sites you see those stinken bags hanging in the trees were guys would wing them from their stands.  Just get down the do your business.  I've had bucks turn places that I have relieved myself into scrapes.  Didn't seem to bother them.

And if you have to go from your stand.... definately steer clear of the steps LOL         dino

two days ago i was hunting with a buddy we stoped to bleat a couple times while i took a leak.  i zipped up looked around we got up looked around some more talked a little then took one step and 20 yads away was a spike and another deer off to the side they were still coming in down wind

Foxbo, I have seen them in Gander mountain, cabelas...might be worth doing a search online.

I just carry an empty water bottle in my fanny pack.

Don't "pee" in a bottle      . Containing the bacteria will start breaking down and producing waste thus giving it the ammonia smell. Took 2 leaks on stand this morning and had a 7 pointer and 4 pointer under me most of the morning. Just let it flow        !

i asked this question 2 years ago on here. i had for years peed in a bottle and was suprised when i asked the question all most everyone said that deer can not tell one urine from another. i am very stubburn in breaking habits that work for me as i allways had used the bottle but it really is a pain in the ass to use 1 as i go around 6-7 times a hunt, week bladder. after i posted and got all the responses i thought i would give it a shot and see what happens. let me tell ya i was floored with the results i have had over this 2 year experiment! i have not had a deer spoke yet ( that i know of ) becouse of peeing  from my stand. i have had deer pop out and walk right by it right after i went. none yet ( that i saw ) spooked. many stopped and sniffed and many spooked becouse they winded me but the urine did not affect them. go ahead and try it yourself i think you will be suprised. by the way i am a DIE HARD coffee drinker and drink a lot of it. the coffee smell does not seem to affect them either which suprised me as i could smell it myself.  this is just my findings from what i have done, hopefully more people will chime in as i would like to hear what they think or what they have tried.

One time I urinated right out of my tree onto a doe. She didn't seem to mind, just thought it was raining I guess... HAHA totally kidding gentlemen. But I have relieved myself only a few feet from where I was sitting and they didn't seem to mind, I think it soaks in pretty quick.

[Ironman]

I just let it fly. Deer don't seem to mind.

[woodchucker]

Let it flow.....Let it flow.....Let it flow.....  

[BFinegan]

I did a search on here last week about this topic. I was amazed at the number of people who say let it flow. I did.

Last Sat. I whizzed in every scape around my stand (4) and once off the end of my platform. I saw 9 deer. None of them showed any sign of alarm and I could have shot several of them if I wanted.

A doe left all her sign in one of the scapes I "visited".  

I had one group of does act a little funny but I think they smelled where I was walking around the stand prior to setting up my climber. That being said one of those does is the one that touched up the scape.

I say let it flow.

Its too fun to pee from a tree, especially at 20 or so feet! Let er fly!

WEEEEE!
