Old rule: hunt with the wind in your face. New rule when you're using scent: set up so the wind carries your candle's scent across the trails, not behind you. If the wind's blowing right to left, position your candle about 45 degrees to your right, deer coming from the left will cross in front of you on their way to the smell. hottrails.com

Rubs and scrapes are showing up, bucks are laying claim to territory and getting ready to check for does. This is prime scouting time: find fresh sign, note the wind, and start thinking about how you'll route scent across the trails bucks are already checking. hottrails.com

“This management buck, along with 7 other bucks couldn’t resist this scent. They moved toward the smell of this lovely estrous (Doe-N-Heat) candle burning in the lantern. I’m a believer in Hot Trails® candles and lanterns! Happy Hunter! Thanks!" Success stories are already rolling in. Got a Hot Trails moment? We want to hear it.

Deer don't graze in one spot the way livestock do, they keep moving while they eat, even around a feeder. That's why placement matters: find the travel trails between bedding and feeding areas, then set up and burn your candle upwind so the scent drifts across trails you can't even see. hottrails.com

Early season doesn't mean Doe-N-Heat sits on the shelf. Deer are curious about it any time of year, and getting them patterned to a scent trail now pays off once the rut kicks in. Get your candles out and start building that pattern before opening weekend. hottrails.com

Let the Hunt Begin. Archery season is right around the corner in most states. Velvet's coming off, temperatures are (finally) starting to drop (in some areas), and the countdown is on. Who's already got a candle picked out for opening day? hottrails.com (also available on Amazon!)

A friendly reminder before season kicks off: Hot Trails® candles use an open flame. Always burn in our Mini Lantern or another metal container, clear leaves and debris from the area, never leave a burning candle unattended, and check your local forestry regulations first. Hunt smart, hunt safe. hottrails.com
