    I have had luck using them with wildlife research active scrape making my own mock scrape. I honestly feel using scents is all trial and error. What might work good for one guy might not for the next. All I can say is why not try, if you don’t try it don’t work if you try and don’t work you end up in the same boat. But if it works you won’t regret it!!

    this is the same thing I posted in the Lure Scent blog:

    i couldn’t imagine hunting in late Oct. without using a scent dripper. I always wait until Oct. 17-18 before setting up my dripper on an existing scrape. I usually wait 2-3 days before hunting over it or a location that leads to or from it and have had deadly results… including my PB buck (174″).

    I like to mix Active Scrape and Trails End #307 in the dripper bottle and spray a 10-15′ (in diameter) circle of Golden Estrus on all the weeds, brush, etc below.

    I do this on 3-5 diff set-ups and put a camera on each. After the 2-3 days, I go back and check all the cams and make my decision on which area to hunt…. often times, not on the scrape itself but the travel route to or from. (depends on where I can get a shot during daylight)
