Leak Proof Air Tight System
Big Buck Ballz was specifically designed to be leak proof and air tight. When
it's not in use, the combination of our innovative wicking system and o-ring
design keep the scents contained in our product. While in the open position,
the Big Buck Ballz wicking system will only allow a strong vapor trail to
escape.
Holds 1/2 Ounce of Scent
The Big Buck Ballz wicking system is designed to contain 1/2 fluid ounce of
scent. In the closed position, our wicking system will hold and preserve your
scent for months! When in use, Big Buck Ballz are designed to release the
strongest vapor trail available. The wick eliminates any spillage or wasting of
expensive scents.
Throw to Designated Shot Location
Big Buck Ballz Model 115 (florescent orange) is designed, engineered and
constructed to take the abuse from being thrown in any terrain or weather
conditions. Traditional scent placement methods have two major issues. These
problems are human contamination and excess noise. Our new scent dispersal
system eliminates these unavoidable problems. It's as simple as judging wind
direction and throwing your Big Buck Ballz to a desired shot location.
Attract Big Bucks to Your Camera
There is no doubt; Big Buck Balls will draw more trophy bucks to your cameras!
Just as durable as Model 115, Model 114 has a black matt finish and is
specifically designed to be used in conjunction with your trail cameras. Simply
hang your Big Buck Ballz upwind from your trophy buck's expected travel route.
Using the right scents at the right time of year will consistently attract more
trophy bucks to your cameras. The proof is in the photos! Summer Scouting food
and curiosity scents Pre Rut curiosity and non-esturs urine scents Rut hormonal
and estrus scents Post Rut food and curiosity scents
Retrievable and Reusable
Big Buck Ballz Model 115 is a highly visible, florescent, orange device that is
designed to be thrown from your stand location to your designated shot
location. Model 115 is easily retrievable due to its florescent color. By using
Big Buck Ballz, you will save money by conserving expensive scents.
Alternative to Bait
In many states, baiting is highly regulated and even non-existent. Throughout
years of research, we have found that trophy bucks are more likely to be fooled
by natural scent than by a bait pile. During our research, we have also
discovered that by hanging our product in a highly traveled area, we can
actually create a social scent post. Our photos even prove that trophy bucks
routinely return to monitor their territory.
Scents and Wicks Easily Changed
Big Buck Ballz revolutionary 1/4 turn cam system has re-invented the
traditional uses of scents. Big Buck Ballz scent delivery system allows owners
to easily change wicks and scents in a single 1/4 turn (see instructions).
Whether liquid, solid, or gel, Big Buck Ballz can deliver them all!
Doubles as Yardage Marker
Using the wind and terrain to your advantage, place or hang your Big Buck Ballz
at set yardages. Lure those trophy bucks in to range at your desired shot
location!
Cover Scent
Hanging a Big Buck Ball directly down wind from your stand location, using 1/2
ounce of your favorite cover scent will greatly decrease your odds of being
detected by a trophy buck!
SCENTS MAKE SENSE
After seventeen years of chasing whitetail deer in an area of southern
Michigan, which is made up of sprawling subdivisions and factories, I've come
across many issues. The first problem I've encountered like most hunters, is
gaining permission to hunt the areas in which the trophy bucks frequent.
Needless to say, I acquire any piece of property I can to hunt a certain
whitetail. Some may be as small as three acres and some as large as a hundred
or more.
After spending thousands of hours scouting, hunting, and getting to know these
animals, I've learned that the suburban whitetail, for the most part, has a lot
larger range than most people think. I have scouted some rather large bucks in
a square mile area for the duration of the summer. Yet during the rut, I have
spotted the same whitetails as far as five miles from its core area. These
particular bucks had to cross obstacles such as industrial areas consisting of
concrete and asphalt, major intersections, and even highways to get to their
destination. This led me to my second problem. How could I possibly concentrate
on one piece of property knowing that these whitetails have such a large range?
After years of pondering, a good friend, Dale Syer and I developed a scent
dispersal system and stuck with it. We knew that the bucks were there, but we
just had to be able to pattern them more effectively. We went back to the
basics and evaluated the facts of nature. As most hunters know, the whitetail
deer has an extraordinary sense of smell, hearing, and vision. We knew we would
never beat the whitetail's vision or sense of hearing, which left us with their
sense of smell.
It's a fact that whitetails use their nose in every decision they make on any
given day. They use their sense of smell for everything from sensing danger,
identifying other animals in the area, to something as simple as finding an
acorn. Knowing this, the system we've been using is simple. We know that we
can't guess where the trophy bucks are going to be at any certain time, so for
the past three years, we've been using trail cameras in conjunction with
scent-dispersal units. Our Big Buck Ballz were strategically designed to
conserve and reuse expensive scents. This allows hunters to save money with
less scents being wasted. The unit that we've developed consists of a round
body, which contains a revolutionary wicking system that holds a solid ounce of
scent. You may be wondering how these units are different from any other system
out there. The difference is that it emits a larger vapor trail compared to
most others. We've been hanging the unit in front of trail cameras with great
success. Dale and I have been able to pinpoint certain bucks knowing which
areas they prefer. How can we prove this system works? It's easy.. the proof is
in the pictures! Knowing the bucks are feeding heavily in early June, Dale and
I started using Big Buck Ballz with food scents. The buck's racks are far from
being developed at this time of year, but you have to start this process early
in order to determine a pattern. Once you have established a pattern and know
where the bucks like to travel, it's already August. We found that alternating
scents keep them coming back to the same locations. By late September,
hopefully you will know where your buck's frequent travel routes are. One thing
you have to remember is that mature bucks are not the easiest animals to
pattern. They travel mostly at night and under the cover of darkness. My
friends and I like to call them "vampires" due to this aggravating habit.
Again, what you are trying to pattern is their travel routes, night-time or
not! By mid October, the pre-rut starts to kick in. This is when we start to
use doe urine and tarsal gland lures. Be aware that the buck's hormones are
almost in full swing. I can't tell you how many times I've gone out to check my
cameras and found the Big Buck Ball lying on the ground. In southern Michigan,
like most northern states, the first week of November signals the start of the
rut. This is when it's time to bring out the big guns and pour your favorite
doe-in-heat scent into your Big Buck Ballz. Keep your stands hung over the
areas in which you've had the most success with your cameras and wait it out.
You have to hunt hard, because the hard work does pay off. You have to go to
that stand knowing that your buck could run past your favorite haunt at any
time.
If that buck happens to investigate the scent that you laid out for him, even
at night, he will be back. This is where using our Big Buck Ballz can really
pay off. We've personally seen the same bucks come back to the scents several
different times throughout a period of several days. If by chance the rut peaks
in your area, and you still haven't had a shot at that trophy buck you've been
after, don't give up! Keep those cameras running! One photo of a good buck can
really rekindle the fire. In Michigan, the secondary rut starts around the
second week of December. This is the time of year that usually surprises us the
most. Every season the photos we collect tell the same story.. the bucks are on
the move again! After the season ends, don't put those trail cameras away. The
bucks by this time of year are run down and have lost a lot of body weight. The
only thing on their mind is finding their next meal.
Why run the trail cameras at this time of year? This is when food scents come
into play again. The season may be ending, but don't put your cameras and
scents away until the bucks leave their headgear on the ground. The simple
reason is that you might learn one more thing about that trophy buck, or maybe
even catch another in search of a tidbit to eat (not to mention you'll know
what you have to look forward to in the next season). Bottom line, scents make
sense!
