(More customer reviews)As with any hunter, I am always a sucker for trying something different, hoping to find the product that will give me that little edge. While examining the scents at a local sporting goods store, an old timer told me how well these worked for him. Well, I was sold, so I thought I would give them a try.
I completely understand that there are many factors in determining whether a scent product works or not. Sometimes there are just no deer around to attract and I do not want to fault the product for that. My intent is to try this product over a few seasons, updating the results every year. Each year I get a deer I'll add a star. Every year they do not attract a deer I take away an additional star.
To use the sticks, the manufacturer recommends covering the stick with a smoke stack, a cover made to protect the burning sticks from rain and wind. You can purchase one from Tinks or make your own out of a bucket (directions included with the sticks). To make a cover, I took a 5 gallon bucket. Using a tape measure, I marked 12 marks on what would normally be the bottom of the bucket and marked 6 marks 4 inches from what would normally be the top of the bucket. Drill a 0.5 inch hole on each of the 12 marks at the bottom of the bucket and drill 1 inch hole on each of the 6 marks at the top of the bucket and you are done.
One additional recommendation I would make is to take a piece of scrap 2x4 about 4 inches long and drill 2 holes in it 1/8th an inch in size. This works excellent for holding the sticks when they are burning.
The one thing I learned was that the sticks seem to attract moisture, so do not leave unburned sticks out overnight if it is damp out. When I left a stick out overnight, it was obviously moist the next morning. It was difficult to light, but it still lit after a minute or two and burned normally after that.
Year 1:
Location: Central WI, near the town of Adams
Timeframe: Late Nov, 9 day gun deer season
Results: Got a doe, but Smokin Sticks did not attract any deer.
Comments: I burned 1 stick every two hours for 6 hours straight. I did this for the 2 days I hunted. The sticks attracted no deer. I left the bucket and ashes out overnight and the next morning I saw no tracks or anything to indicate that anything came to investigate the scent. The deer I got was far from the burning stick and there was no indication that it smelled it.
