Spoiler alert, scent travels on the wind and deer smell super well. This has been known since caveman days.

I see a lot more deer when I get my butt up and hunt mornings. A lot of hunters see bucks between 9 and 11 am. We all have heard of big bucks being killed mid mornings. Could it be because most of us hunt from elevated treestands and that's when the ground is really warming up and the thermals are pulling upward the hardest. Making the bucks the most vulnerable? Morning hunts I have alot of deer walk directly under my stand. In the evening, when it's getting cooler and the thermals are really pulling your sent down it is very hard to get a deer to walk directly under you without being winded.

I’ve always liked mornings better. Shot my buck last year at 8am.

@garrettstraffon608 as someone that hunts south alabama public land 3+ days a week during season nearly all of my deer sightings are between 8-10 AM or 1-3 PM I rarely see a deer 30 minutes before dark like you're "supposed" to. Even when I hunt the public food plots I see alot of deer mid day

As a waterfowl hunter, I have found 10-2 is a very good time to traffic hunt ducks. As a turkey hunter, some of the easiest turkeys to kill are struck up from 10-2. Deer hunting, lots of midday rut bucks are killed. There just seems to be more quality movement rather than quantity movement midday.

My small property has a bunch of log cabins by it. I can get away with almost anything scent related. They will come in and be relaxed not alert at all. Now movement or sound they don't tolerate. Even if you do bump them they will be back the next day. cleared for a food plot at a new blind and one of the biggest bucks in the area was in there the same night. Now hunting public land is another story. I've watched deer huff and snort knowing something was up. Just couldn't figure out what it was and usually don't hang around. Also if they bust you they probably won't come back.

Get out the carbon fume respirator. Prolly would work to stop breath scent if you plugged the exhaust flap but would be super hot and uncomfortable

Idk …. I seen videos on people keeping their hunting clothes in baking soda or scent killer dryer sheets. And they don’t get winded. Also I have walked to my stand 102837383823 times and they never smelled my rubber boots. Just walk right over where I walked in. Bucks/does all deer. Also I use spearmint gum. Spearmint grows wild on the ground and they are used to the smell. They don’t smell as good as this video says because we would NEVER see a deer hunting EVER! Idk it’s great Info. Good luck everyone!
