Code Blue Rack Rub Gel

😂 it's RACK rub, not BACK rub! My husband didn't rub or lick me at all, but he did laugh at my mistake. I thought this was in our cart bc he wanted some hot, sexy back rubbing. Nope. He just wanted to shoot a deer. *no deer were injured during the making of this mistake.* *wife didnt get a y shots or deposits that night* whom whomp

I have trail cameras set up aimed at three different wild apple trees that I have worked on for several years. Google "wild apple release" if you are not familiar. The deer have naturally established scrapes under those trees where I left licking branches. After using RACK RUB on those branches, I had a five fold increase in the number of pictures of both bucks and does, including some larger bucks that hadn't shown up before using the product. I even had pictures of a bear checking it out. If I had had an opportunity to shoot one of those big bucks last season, I would have given it five stars. The deer were still attracted after shedding their antlers. I have been applying the product about every other week and now in mid June I am monitoring the antler development of several bucks. I won't blame RACK RUB but almost none of the activity is in daylight hours.

This doesn't help bring in any more bucks to the area or attract any more deer. The most important thing in making a mock scrape or freshening up any scrape is keeping yourself as scent free as possible. Second is location, location, location! 3rd is the overhanging branch. Adding scent is actually optional if you have the right location nailed down and the right overhanging branch. I bought this thinking it would attract more bucks to the overhanging branch and it didn't.

I found a nice natural scrape with a licking branch and decided to give this a try... i wiped some on the licking branch and threw a game camera on it. every deer that walked passed it, stopped and gave it a sniff or lick... Then my big hit list buck actually bit the branch off. i shot that buck this past year in early season, no doubt headed to that scrape.

Bought 5 bottles of this. Used 2 during hunting season. Had 3 left over. Just looked at them and all bottles leaked most of the contents out. Packages were unopened. Bottles were not cracked but screw top was not completely tight. Called Code Blue customer support and they said I needed to ship the bottles to them at my expense and their engineers would investigate to see if they would replace them. Very poor customer support. I will buy no more Code Blue products.

This was the first time I've made mock scrapes and I'm impressed. I used JACKIES DEER LURES scrape powder and used the Code Blue Rack Rub on a limb overhanging the scrape. I checked it 4 days after I made it and there was some sign in the scrape. Three days later my stepfather hunted that stand without knowing I made the scrape. A nice 8 pt and 2 spikes came in and he kept waiting for the 8 pt to get from behind the small tree and bushes so he could shoot. He said the buck was pawing the ground and licking and rubbing his horns on the limb. Long story short, he killed the buck. I've made several more scrapes and used this on the overhanging branch and they are tearing em up. I'll be sitting on one of those scrapes in the morning.

Product sucked tend to scare off more mature bucks and kept the smaller bucks around ! Not worth the money you pay for it I used this in conjunction with Jackie's deer lures and they all sucked ! Use it over a very productive scrape now that scrape has gone cold ! No JOKE what a big disappointment !

Nice and thick stays put! Can not rate it on deer attraction as I only have it out a short time. Maybe a fluke but 2days after putting out in one spot there was a scrape within 5' of it.
