Most of my trail cam pics come from deer smelling deer scents I put out. Evercalm smells like deer to me and I like it at the base of a tree I’m hunting. I put it on my shoes typically before walking in too, if I remember.
I’m hardly the deer killer but have had several opportunities and have watched deer sniff things that I put there. Not food, scents. A drag rag is one of my favorites and I’ll kind of sling it against different trees etc on my way in.
Do I think you can fool a deers nose? Yes, yes I do. I’ve done it many times. Maybe Not so much fooling as in being able to keep them from smelling you, but more along the lines of distracting or confusing them. Perhaps making them curious so they don’t just bolt. I do pay attention to wind, and will choose spots accordingly, but just go when I can. Even if I ain’t fooling them, I’m having fun and seeing result ever once in a while.
You can play the wind all you want, but here in Ga, it does like to change direction.
BTW- my cousin sat in a chair wearing his HECS suit in an open field. The turkeys still showed up and fed within feet of him. I don’t know that he tried it without the suit.
I get busted(a lot)because I move a lot……period.
