I installed cheap plastic urinals in my shacks, purchased on amazon. They come with a hose. Simple to install with 2 screws and drill a hole in the bottom of the shack for the hose. For more serious business, I have 5 gallon buckets with a toilet seat attached....using heavy duty plastic bags. Works like a charm and you have minimal movement outside the shack other than to set the used bag outside.
I know that when I drink coffee, my urine smells like coffee. I don't know how long that lasts, though. I, too, remember many years ago people saying "don't pee in the woods. It'll scare the deer!" Then, some time in the 90s, I started hearing people talking about peeing on scrapes. It's funny how things change with knowledge.
Amen to that. Or in your area. Or ever in your area. There are folks shooting 200" younger deer far, far less than folks who consistently shoot older, "smaller deer". Who is the better hunter?
Fun FACT only one in 14000 deer will reach over 150 inches ? information from older QDM handout Target mature Bucks and everything will fall into place ! Thanks Jeff !
A really cool fact is that 1 out of 2, 4.5 or 5.5 year olds in most whitetail areas will reach and exceed 150 inches in most areas. That stat from the is from harvest records, instead of potential growth of antlers. Kind of misleading depending on how you look at it.
I used to have a cam that took 35mm film. Showing my age...but ,I peed in front of it and the deer hung around so long it used up all my pictures. I was learning then that they were more or less interested in the smell. Since then I also discovered Apple pie moonshine...I didn't know my blind could spin around and get heated up by itself until then. Small sips...is the key.
We have pee funnels with tubes going to the ground in our tower blinds we rinse them with bottled water and cap them off inside, we don’t bury the tubes into the ground though that’s a waste of time
The whole Ted Nugent I drink nothing but apple juice during hunting season was a funny skit on down to earth hunting video. He was just joking being Ted. If he didn’t become a rock star he would have been a comedian for sure 😂
Always felt urine was more of an attractant. In northern Wisconsin I would pee and put a camera on it to show people that wouldn't pee in the woods how it worked. In 48 hours-first animal is almost always a bear, followed by a deer, then a fisher, and then a raven. Try it, it really works. Jeff thanks as always for your videos.
We have pee bottles in all our box blinds. No other way to get relief without stepping outside. But they get dumped out the window when exiting for the day.
I ad a pee jug years ago. Was store bought and made like a hot water bottle with a camo cover. Used it for a few years. Would empty it at my truck or home. Would wash it out and dry it. Then one day it sprung a leak in my back pack. Leaking through the pack and down the back of my legs... Last time I ever used a pee jug. Then in time I realized if you push the leaves away from the bottom of the tree you are in that peeing on the ground wasn't a bad thing. Had deer stop under me several times over the years. 🤠👍
Probably two maybe Three weeks ago I took a leak right 15 yards in front of my trail cam I keep out and within 2-3 hrs deer where right there a bigger doe sniffed around it didn't affect her one way or the other they just went on picking around eating I was thinking then wow either they're just that used to it or they just don't care and that's all been a myth I've been fed for years
Ha funny topic Jeff and the prop with the moonshine. sometimes i purposely hold it until im walking in just to pee on my scrapes, my cams show deer actually come right to it and it works well. Just a stranger to them is my guess. Good seeing ya at ATA, Ryan in Michigan, now im gonna go make some cider moonshine
Well I started peeing from stand 25 ft up if I needed to. Result I have definitely seen a lot less deer. ALOT. I’m didn’t want it to be a one season fluke so I have gone 3 seasons. Granted I got a buck every season but those are rifle or muzzleloader ONLY. I was knocking down nice bucks when I was using a pee bottle. Going back to carrying one this year. Archery season hasn’t been what it used to be. My target buck this year avoided me like the plague. Clothes washed carefully after every wear to every other wear. Hung dried outside. Used to use a bee hive smoker to smoke them. Quit that last year. Going back to that also.
Can’t seem to get the girlfriend to get one let alone use it but they make a thing called a shewee which I’d have to imagine it makes them going to the bathroom in the woods a little easier. Or it looks like it would on paper.
I don't think it matters in any way...meaning if they are downwind if you they will smell you and spook either way. You could even say that deer may accept the coffee smell more than the smell of you...heck, maybe the coffee smell can be a cover up scent 😊
I peed right off my deer stand this year with a bedding buck and two does within hearing distance. They just listened and couldn't care less.
They really never do! Pretty cool
Are you drinking it ?????😂
Tastes like apples... according to Uncle Ted 😁
😂
That is wierd looking with that conversation,,,,

That sounds really nice!
@@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751 I am sure Jenn would appreciate u installing them in her shacks

Most definitely!
One cannot shoot a 200 inch deer if there is no 200 inch deer to shoot
Amen to that. Or in your area. Or ever in your area. There are folks shooting 200" younger deer far, far less than folks who consistently shoot older, "smaller deer". Who is the better hunter?
give me an older deer anyday. trying to upgrade to the more mature deer
Thanks Jeff

I thought for sure that was Jen’s pee jar.Why is he drinking it😂😂
Now that's funny, ha. Something I would do...give Jen a hard time...but definitely wouldn't drink from the jar, then 😂
Dead 😂😂😂😂

😂 Man...very small sips. Without a weapon of course. Appreciate you Tim!! 😊
Yeah 6-7 bottles were drank up during the nights of gun season.

Very cool observations Mark!! Thank YOU!
I grew up hunting in the 80’s and yes it was always said dont pee in the woods it will ruin ur area
We have pee bottles in all our box blinds. No other way to get relief without stepping outside. But they get dumped out the window when exiting for the day.
Hopefully you don't confuse them with your favorite beverage 😁 As you can imagine...no pee bottles allowed in our blinds
My daughter had to pump breast milk while hunting to get rid of it,poured it in the ground and lured every yearling to her stand.
True story
Wow...that's a new one! Pretty cool tho
Gotta feeling thats really not apple pie😂 I always try to go before I walk into my short sit stands so I dont have to worry about it. Great vid!
It's actually our own family recipe...pretty dang incredible!

😂 Oh boy!
Yes, they definitely don't care...no need to ever cover up or anything at all. Which is a good thing 😁

Definitely been a myth 😊

Haha...I don't know if legal Ryan, but I wouldn't mind doing an apple pie moonshine video 😬 Great seeing you too!
Deer urine scents and sprays have been the biggest hunting gimmick there is!
AMEN!!
lol. I saw that movie. Thought how bad movies do hunting in general.
So true Mike! Always...almost comical they can't get direction from someone that actually knows hunting
pee doesn't scare the deer. I use my own urine to start mock scrapes. its never more than a few hours before the first deer hits the scrape.
I think our record is around 20 minutes, 😊
Does it make a difference if you are bear hunting?
No, it does not...
@@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751 Thanks, one of the guides at the camp I go to insists it scares them away. It will be nice to lose the pee jug.

Definitely not the pee 😂
I remember Charlie Alsheimer advocating peeing in mock scapes many years ago.
Definitely! I think about 12-15 years ago
I’ll only carry a poop jug from now on
😂
Don't pee in a jar, but if you do, at least you have something to wet your whistle ROFL...
😂 Yum yum!? 😬

We've seen that...kind of interesting for sure! Man us guys have it pretty good easy in this department 😬
@ I agree. I have zero complaints 🤣
I’ve seen these and have read a lot of women like them!
First
edit:super happy 2nd!
January 11, 2025…. A day in history where I actually beat Kurt…. Wow! 😂
Man...almost buddy, almost 😁
Super happy 2nd, haha I like that!
What about bringing a thermos of coffee with you? Do the deer smell your coffee? Do they care?
I don't think it matters in any way...meaning if they are downwind if you they will smell you and spook either way. You could even say that deer may accept the coffee smell more than the smell of you...heck, maybe the coffee smell can be a cover up scent 😊
1st
Now that was really quick on the draw...wow, what is this date in history? 😁 Sorry Kurt...the whole bedroom advantage and all, lol
@@whitetailhabitatsolutions9751🤷🏼♀️😂
In between food and bedding. Rock solid strategy pays off! Well done 👍!
