1.) Masking Breath: I know human breath is a big contributer to deer detecting your presence, but I HATE wearing a mask over my face because they build up moisture from you exhaling and it makes my nose hurt. I'm also not a big fan of the scent gum either because they lose flavor and gets all crumbly. I've heard Doublemint gum is effective and deer don't mind the smell of mint. Any fact to this? If so I'm definitely going to be stocking up on Doublemint gum.
2.) I have a ladder stand with a hanging stand coming off of it up at my other hunting spot in Jones County. The brace broke when I was putting it up because the welding deteriorated. If I don't have the brace the ladder is really wobbly and feels unsafe to me. Is there anything anyone recommends that would be effective for a ladder stand brace? I'm going up there Friday to install hooks and my bow ropes on my stands so any info would be great appreciated on this!
