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

[Jerry Jeffer]

Hey Vaughn, I sure do piss alot. Might as well hit those scrapes when ya can.

My wife gave me one of those pee containers used in hospitals to try out this year.  I have had it on every trip and finally had a use for it.  

Used it and then put it back in my backpack.  I thought it was spill proof.  It leaked into everything in my pack and I could smell it up in my tree.  Took a small buck shortly after.  Then had to go hom and clean everything.    

I pee on the spot now.

I just use scent loc, piss all over my self enjoy the warmth and forget the wind, just hunt.Just kidden!I usually walk down wind and pee.And I believe if a mature buck is down wind of you he will smell you. pee or no pee.We are carnivores and I don't doubt that animals just view human pee as any other pee.Pee doesn't signal immediate danger.Scent from an existing predetor will present a problem.

LMAOF!!!

Peeing definitely gives off more scent but not scent that they mind. I pee in scrapes too and later find them all ripped up anew. I don't know if it attracts them more but it certainly doesn't keep them away.

Just pee from the tree.  Urine is urine! I have peed from the tree for years.  I have had deer lick the urine (for the salt) countless times.

My hunting partner, Tom Storm, and I treated 12 scrapes with Wall Hanger scent and 12 we peed in.  Guess what...we had the same number of hits in both types of treated scrapes.

Don't screw around with pee bottles, just go for it!

Too Short

[bmfer]

If it's gotta get out, I let it out.

[Hardhed]

Let me tell ya... it's not just taking a leak that deer don't mind.  I was once in a very compromised position and had an inquisitive doe come up to within 3 feet -had to finally shoo her away.

[BFinegan]

All right, I'm back to peeing. I see enough affirmations.

I'm hunting "street smart bucks" anyway, so Brunners endorsement works for me.

[GingivitisKahn]

Well lets see.  Where I hunt, there is tons of wildlife - presumably peeing all over the place, horses (and their riders) peeing here and there, hikers peeing whenever the urge strikes, campers and their pets who certainly pee in the bushes because that bathroom is just too dang many steps away, other hunters peeing this way and that and the odd passerby who will choose to pee.

Some times, I get the impression that deer get to a patch of ground that's not urine-soaked and get fairly suspicious.  Needless to say, I give in to the pressure (so to speak) and pee as well.

It is like guys saying that ya should not gut a deer near your stand. I always gut them where they fall and some have fallen right under my stands, guess what? I have shot a nice buck or two in or very near my fresh gut-piles. It has been proven in many studies that it does not spook deer even mature bucks. I have yet to see a study that says it spooks deer. Shawn

[Steve Kendrot]

Next question??? To doo or not to doo? Cause when you gotta go....

[GingivitisKahn]

Dunno about dropping a deuce out there (though I've done it) but for heaven's sake bury the evidence!  

I don't mind (much) stumbling across other hunters when I'm out, but there are some things I really *don't* want to stumble across.  >:-(

[Clint B.]

Apparently, millions of dollars are being wasted on buying deer urine attractants!   )

[8th Dwarf]

OH, you got me started!  Most of the so-called Doe in heat urine is NOT deer urine.  It is, if the seller is concerned with false advertising suits, RABBIT urine.  A female rabbit is a "Doe".

Tink screwed people over like this for years...

If all the "deer urine" that was sold came from deer, there would have to be over 500,000 captive deer, all wearing pee pee tubes!

It is just ANOTHER Madison Avenue RIP OFF!  

I don't use scents anymore at all!  If I do anything, it will be intentionally peeing in a key scrape!  I have seen big, mature bucks RIP a scrape to shreds after I peed in it...no josh!

Too Short

[Preston Lay]

Hey Paul hows a guy that goes by too short, keep from getting pee on himself doing it from a treestand? Love Ya....Preston

[Guru]

I don't know...you guys can hunt like you want...But for me,I'm peeing in a bottle. I use a well constructed,thick plastic bottle that absolutely doesn't leak.I clean it after every use and also put my used tissues in it. I usually find myself with a runny nose when the weather gets cold.

 When I'm hunting I like to keep my "impact" on the area as small as possible.That just makes sense to me. Espacially when dealing with mature animals. They're a whole diff. breed!

How do you guys that "get out and go downwind" know you're not spooking deer walking around? And how do you know that peeing all over the place over time won't deter deer movement form the area?

I don't know...maybe I just give the critters too much credit...but it works for me.....

It all comes down to confidence....either way if your confident that you're doing the right thing,then by all means continue....

[Arraflinger]

Pee outta my stand ALWAYS.

[8th Dwarf]

Here is the key thought to all of this...

URINE IS URINE!!!!!  

Tissues????  Heck, I just lean out and close one nostril off and let 'er rip!  NEVER had a problem.  I have dribbled saliva right on a deer's nose QUITE A FEW TIMES and watched them lick it off and do NOTHING!

A friend chews and spits his chew out of the stand.  The deer EAT IT!

I think we have been pounded to death BY PEOPLE WHO SELL THINGS to believe that we must buy this, buy that, do this, do that, etc.  MOST of it is just pure hawg wash!  I mean, look at this whole insane Scent Lok suit business...open Cabela's catalog.  Scent Lok will NOT keep animals from smelling you!!!!!  READ MY LIPS!  Talk to African outfitters about it...they laugh at it!  Okay, so it may...MAY...cut your scent down a LITTLE, but it is just another crutch that is made of rubber!

Too Short

[lodestar]

Just be sure to drop Trou first. No fun sitting in it..... Ha Ha!!!!   Never seemed to bother the deer round my part. Jason
