I'm saying it's a really bad habit/thing, period. Guy at work chews 4 cans in a 12 hr shift. All he does is cough, gag, spit, has high blood pressure and bad teeth, grosses us all out. Cost has to be really high. I hope he enjoys dipping.
I actually experimented with this. I took a whole can of grizzly mint, poured it in a circle around a popular saltlick...and the deer never seemed to notice it. In my opinion it doesn't bother them.
don't think it matters last year i chewed 7-10 cans a week and shot my biggest buck to date quit chewin this year tobacco free for 6months now shot 2 doe in nc off the dogs and one in pa
