Anybody dips while deer hunting? If so, do you spit on the ground off the stand or in a bottle. Think it would scare deer off?

Always. Spit on the ground/in the stand.

I used to smoke like a freight train while hunting and always saw deer.

Not to mention when you fire up that stick bait, the bigguns come on in

I was spitting out the stand earlier and 2 deer walked by at 40 yards. Dont know if they just didn't smell it or didn't mind it. And I know about that stick bait, I never got into it but I know people who slaughter deer with it.

The bottle would be ideal in an enclosed stand but I'm a strictly climber guy. Seems like a lot of movement.

I used to spit in a bottle before I quit dipping, just so I wouldn't have to lean over to spit not on myself

Dat stick bait tho

I don't dip but I smoke and I smoke on stand. I setup according to the wind and see plenty of deer but no doubt I probably don't see some due to them turning away at time if they catch my wind.

If I'm bored and not seeing deer....light up and usually very soon they will appear, usually down wind too.....never fails

I've always heard smoking is against all hunting rules but then again you know those old timers smoked like trains before and during hunting and killed a bunch of deer. I have a cousin that smokes in the truck on the way to go hunting and I've seen plenty of deer after riding with him and he sees way more deer than me so idk how worried they are about smoke.

It must not bother them all that much, not as much as our natural human body odor. I believe the Indians (feather) used to hunt in smoked hides and they didn't starve.

I spit out of the stand/on the floor. Never noticed a difference one way or the other. On the same place, my cousin smokes it up and always sees the monsters. Luckily he's a terrible shot

Guess all that med school got to you too. I get scared sitting in path all day listening to it too.

I haven't quit yet though. But yea I spit in a bottle while in the stand but while in the tree stand, i just spit over the side.

My son has been hunting with me for past two years (hes 8 now).

Kid pees every 30 minutes. I have no idea where it comes from. We've seen an awful lot of deer the past two seasons.

If someone was spitting on the floor in one of our stands it would be the last time they ever sat in a stand. That is disgusting.

I quit the first week of school. Too many people judging. Plus I figured if I kept the habit of dipping while I studied I'd never quit. Feels good.

Nothing like a good wad of tobacco in the stand/blind. Quit years ago, but still occasionally participate.

Currently my problem. I've managed to cut it back to once a night during the week though, which is good for me.

Yea all the Muslims and Indians were judging me too, but I told them to frick off
