Ep. 016: Glands, Scents & Mock Scrapes with Chad Whitcomb

Patrick Guyette interviews Chad Whitcomb, an excellent hunter and an expert in deer scents, glands, and making mock scrapes. The episode starts off with a kill story of a nice 10 point buck. We had such a great conversation going pre-episode that I started recording it and included it to start the show. We do a deep dive into deer glands and how they use their gland scents to communicate with each other. Chad's company Backyard Scents makes buck and doe scents from the glands of local deer, and many bucks have been taken while standing over a scrape with his scent.
