Vine or hemp rope

[nybuckboy]

When making licking branches for mock scrapes Have you used either vines or hemp rope and have you found one better than the other?  Thoughts!

I have been using grape vine for at least 5 years with good success.  I checked one vine that has been in place for 4 or 5 years.  I haven't had to replace it. I put up two vines and 3 cameras yesterday.  

I cut a piece as big around as my finger and 3-4 feet long and attach it to a limb with a couple zipties.  I hang them so they are around waist height or a little higher.  

I'm always impressed with the bucks that check them in the late season.  I would post pics, but I don't have any on this laptop.

Thanks VT. I have both out now. Gonna run them a bit lower just below belt BC I’ve seen where it’s good to get the fawns involved to as they will use them for life. Thanks for input appreciated.

I imagine either one would work.  They should both hold scent.  I put mine up with gloves on.  Good luck with them.  I'm hoping to put up one or two more in the next week or so.
