Deer scent not allowed?

[Sasquatch]

I was reading through some of the recent changes and came across this:

Cervid Excretions: No person may possess or use any substance or material that contains or claims to contain any excretion collected from a cervid, including feces, urine, blood, gland oil, or other bodily fluid for the purposes of taking or attempting to take, attracting, or scouting wildlife. This prohibition does not apply to natural substances collected by an individual from non-farmed cervids legally taken in North Carolina or synthetic products.

Yeah I seen that, I guess CWD is the reason.

Yep, Virginia made this law about 2 years ago....

I saw that earlier, CWD is the reason given.
They don't want to bring in anything that may be contaminated.

It's the same in South Carolina since last year, but note the exception!

Do y'all have any idea how hard it is to sneak up on a wild deer to collect urine? Especially when it's that time of the year. They get just as cranky as human females.

We would tie off the scent glands on the back of the boots some years... at least for cover scent.

Some guys I know would take a Doe's bladder if she was swoll up and in estrus... good buck lure especially since the feed, genes and scents was local.

Now, I don't thin Virginia allows even this. The damn hunting regs are ridiculously written.

They gonna quit selling it in NC? Yeah....I doubt it.
