I’ve also used Kaatz Brothers trailing scent (Smokin’ Aces) for the same purpose. I’m not sure if it worked or not, but it gave me confidence, and quite frankly, that’s all you need. Since I’ve gone to snares, I want the coon’s head up and not nosing down the trail. My snares are hung 6-8 inches above the trail so having their heads up is important.
