“Trapping” Whitetail Making
Synthetic Scrapes

From your friends at BUCK FEVER SYNTHETICS ‘GET THE FEVER” here are
directions for best results:

If your goal is to hunt young deer several techniques will work. I once spoke with a guy who uses blueberry pie crust to attract deer. To hunt
mature deer you must be crafty! Deer are created with a nose that gives them over 500-million scent receptors. That’s easily over 400 times
more than we have. And with this amazing nose they can easily identify over twenty-odors at the same time and a lingering scent trail (where
you walked) up to five days. So just using a cover scent for (smart) deer is a total waste of your time and money. And the first time you enter
the woods without proper scent control, smart deer pattern you and already know what to do to avoid you. Is it any wonder, how many hunters
ever get a chance at a big old buck?

Scent Control

Scent control is your first and most important step to fooling any
animal with a sensitive nose!

Body Odor year around
While setting your synthetic deer traps or simply scouting your area.
Always follow a strict scent control regimen.

Make sure you and your gear are extremely clean.
Always spray your hands with Vanishing Hunter before
touching anything.
Wear clean de-scented clothes, rubber and maybe even Scent-
lok clothing.
De-scent your rubber boots or waders and other gear with
Vanishing Hunter.
Minimize leaving any lingering scent when accessing your
hunting spots and clear your trail by trimming any thick brush
you might contact.
All of this is crucial when making or checking our Buck traps.

Hunting Season Body Odor
The two largest sources of major deer-alerting odors are your
skin and breath! It is a fact that horses, dogs and mature deer can
identity you by mouth odor alone. If you want the best results don’t cut
any corners at all and follow our entire recommended scent control
regimen.

Shower using scent free body soap and shampoo
Spray Vanishing Hunter (while your skin is damp) directly
onto your clean skin and rub it over your entire body and your
head or hair or scalp.
Towel-dry or air-dry with a hair dryer.
If you can’t shower, simply spray Vanishing Hunter
directly on your skin. Leaving the VH residue on your skin will
help you remain scent-free all day long, even while sweating.
Brush, your tongue with toothpaste.
Rinse your mouth with Vanishing Hunter and spit it out.
Chew Gum-o-flague to keep your mouth deodorized.

Hunting Clothes
Wash your hunting clothes often (every week) to rid them of all
odors.

Use baking soda alone, with no soap in the water.
Air-dry or put them in the dryer without softener sheets instead
add a little baking soda in the dryer.
Or wash in scent free soap and in between washes you can
treat your clothes with a light spray of Vanishing Hunter.
Always spray your hands with Vanishing Hunter before
handling any of your clothes or gear.
Store, clean, de-scented hunting gear inside a plastic, rubber
or Scentlok bag and inside a container with a tight seal.
Never wear any part of your hunting gear until you have
actually entered your hunting area. Always wear rubber boots
and make sure they’re de-scented both inside and out.
If you wear leather boots don’t forget to use a good boot
cream to condition, water proof and deodorize - we
recommend James Valley Leather Boot Cream.
Now that you’ve reached this scent control level, hunt the wind
at your backside.

Setting Buck Traps
Introduce a ‘synthetic” deer to your area and make
bucks hunt you!

Creating a Synthetic Trap
To make bucks consistently visit your setups always
make several synthetic scrapes. You can either
use mock (fake) scrapes or existing ones, old or
new. Keep in mind, the more you create the better
your odds of finding good hunting locations.

First, always put them in runways with a
proper (downward) overhanging branch for
scent communication. Always mark the licking
branch with BE-FGland.
Next, scrape the ground free from debris and
put at least a quarter ounce of BE - Pre/Post
Ru t in the scrape, for beat results
precondition the deer in your area well in
advance of season.

If year-round setups are possible, keep good
response sites active by:

Mark them once a month from February
through June.
From July through August, re-freshen once
every two weeks.
September, mark them once a week.
Once you’re actually hunting! Mark your
hunting spot every time you hunt.
Start early in the year!

You can often get programmed responses from
many deer before the season arrives.

BF-Rut works best once rutting behavior
increases, and can cause quick aggressive
responses from rutting deer, a compound
benefit at your synthetic scrapes is that many
deer will collectively urinate and other
scrapes often appear in the area.
We call this the multiplicity factor’ and it really
multiplies your buck activity and chances for
success.

If you can’t precondition your area, quick response
sites (buck traps) can work in a hurry.

Some of these quick response areas have
produced a reaction within days, hours,
minutes, or even seconds (really).
