DesertBull Report post Posted October 16, 2005 I have never used it as a cover or lure while hunting, but I put some around my salt licks once in while. I have found that it doesn't spook them, but I am not sure they really come running to it either. I do think the imitation vanilla extract spooks them, because I put some of that on a new salt lick I started and they never came around it, even though I know there were a lot of deer using the trail. I moved the salt 100 yards down the trail and they started using within a week or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
az4life Report post Posted October 16, 2005 I sort of look at it as anything that is not normally found in the area, could be a bad thing. Artificial stuff is just that... Artificial. Just my opinion, but based on what I have seen and heard from others and myself. Myabe you are on to something though? If it works don't knock it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
