ProXpedition Attractant Gels: Yellow Oestrus, Black Out, Last Smell — Complete Guide

ProXpedition Rut Gels: The Deer Hunter's Guide

ProXpédition's line of attractant gels for whitetail deer covers the three critical phases of the rut. Each product is built for a specific stage — using the wrong product at the wrong time can hurt your chances. Here's the complete guide.

Yellow Oestrus: The Primary Trigger

Yellow Oestrus is a concentrated gel that mimics the pheromones of a doe in heat. This is the product for the active rut (November 1-15 in Quebec). Application: a few drops on a wick hung 30 cm off the ground, refreshed every 48 hours. A rutting buck can pick up this gel from over 200 meters.

Black Out: The Dominance Trigger

Black Out mimics the pheromones of a dominant buck marking his territory. Ideal during the pre-rut (mid-October), when bucks are sorting out the pecking order. Apply it to a mock scrape or on rub trees to trigger competitive responses.

Last Smell: The Final Trigger

Last Smell is the last-minute product — the one to use when a buck is in view but hesitating to come in. A quick application at your position can tip the decision for an undecided animal. A must-have in your pack. See all attractant gels
