Season is right around the corner. Have you ever wanted to pick the brain of some of the pros you watch on TV? Here’s your chance to get some of them questions answered. Post your questions bellow and I’ll do my best to get all of them answered and will post who’s answering them. Please keep in mind allot of people are getting ready for season, so I will post them as I get them.
I should add they will be answered by some of the Drury Outdoors members as well as host and team members of other hunting shows.
Over the years, I have seen various heaters used for late season bow and muzzle. Generally, there has not been any discussion that I recall on any of these.
What affects have been documented on the use of Propane, charcoal, synthetic, or other heating elements when it comes to scent control? Additionally, which would leave the least amount of residue on clothing, portable blind, and equipment?
When using scent drags in the fall for the rut when do you put them out? the night before the day you hunt and do you sit on it all day and redo it in the morning or next time you hunt or if it don’t work the first time don’t try it again?
Both questions have been sent in and will be returned shortly.

Randy here is a answer I got from Drury Outdoors team member and whitetail Properties land specialist Chris Propst
I’ve never really noticed any difference between the two. We usually always watch the wind as much as possible and we also have an ozonics that we started using last year that seems to work very well. The only heater we ever use is a small propane heater.
How to get to a stand where corn is planted next to the woods? If you walk along the woods you will cross every trail that leads into the corn. If you cross the corn straight at your stand you will spook every deer in the woods that you are trying to hunt. Farmers plant as close to the woodline as possible. Can’t blame them but it is hard to get at a standin this situation. Any advice Please
When I hunt I scout and rely on sign and patterns to place myself in the right situation to be successful. I have never tried to use artifical or natural scents and I don’t use calls. I’m afraid that I will unintentionally do something that will disturb the area, ie, calling at the wrong times, using the wrong scents. I’m curious about these tools and would like a few do’s and don’ts that can give me confidence using them.

Here is a answer I received from legends of the fall TV members Chris Ward
I had this problem once in Indiana. Only thing you can do is just spray the crap out of your boots and walk along woodline
