    3 questions for the pros

    1. Will deer eat wet corn that is lying on the ground?
    2. How does the rain affect your scent in the area?
    3. With the warmer weather, I build up a sweat going in and coming out. Mix the sweat with the wetness from the rain. Do you wash your hunting clothes after every hunting trip or can you just hang them to dry and air out in the garage or under the porch?

    1 - yes until it sours
    2 - it will wash it off of any thing you touch, BUT moisture in the air will carry your scent much better than dry air
    3 - wash them - if you hang them out to dry they will capture the scents from around your house
    4 - I'm not a pro and good luck !

        Deer will eat the wt corn. If it sours watch out for the hogs. Yes wash your clothes after every trip. During warm weather I wear a tee shirt to the blind then wipe down and change shirts put tee shirt in zip lock bag

              1 Yes

              2 Spray a lot of scent killer before and after you get to the stand, raise your arms and spray heavily.

              3 I do not wash my clothes after every trip, you will ruin all your camo in no time short if you do this. If I get it muddy or bloody I will wash it otherwise I Soak them down with scent spray and hang them outside and let them air out and then stick them in a scent free plastic bag with some carbon mats.

                1-Yes
                2-rain is your friend
                3-scent sprays are your friend and only wash them after a few hunts or muddy/bloody. Hang in a tree to dry if a dryer with scent free dryer sheets to dry them in

                    1. I've seen deer eat corn that was a few inches under water.
                    2. Rain is your friend, but I always spray down w/ scent killer.
                    3. I wear my clothes over the weekend and hang them up each evening, then wash them before the next hunt.

                        I have disagree that rain is your friend when it comes to scenting.

                        The easiest surface for a dog to track on is wet ground, keeps the scent fresh and strong. The best time for a pointer to work is after a good rain.

                              Unless you sweat heavily or stink I just spray down my clothes.

                              Wet ground will hold your scent where you walked or anything you touch much longer than dry. Rubber boots help a lot.
