Has anyone ever tried it?
I've made the horse hoof lure. But I wondering if a piece of hoof in the dirt thole would be good bait.
Thanks.

oddly, this is 2nd time this week someone has mentioned horse hoof bait.
I tried some many years ago, and while it worked, I didn';t see any additional beneift in using it, plus it was obnoxious stuff to use
while its true dogs fight over pieces of hoof (and I know that first hand from growng up on a horse farm), they also do the same over other odd stuff like tomatoes.
my thoguht was can it work better than lures/baitsp repared with coyotes/fox in mind/
as far as using a piece of hoof, never had, but if one wanted to go that way, much more pleasant to work with then the tincture

The horse hoof lure REALLY stinks. The horse hoof trimmings don't.
Dogs seem to be very curious about it. They want to crawl on the wood pile to get some.

kuger- as I said, I used it with at least some success- so yes, agree that it works-
but as musher said, the tincture STINKS and not in a pleasant way- I can smell canine lure/skunk/etc all day, coyote smell bothers me not, its coyote after all- but that horse hoof stuff- P. capital U.
so my thought is I've found many a lure that imo works better, so I figured why bother with the stink.
but yes, it works

your certainly going to get a rolling response from that for sure!
Something about sewer smell that gets the rolling going LOL.
I remember a farrior comming out to our place to trim our horses hooves and the nasty he trimmed off and picked out of the bottom of the hooves the old dog took a good whiff and instantly started to roll and chin rub that stuff like a wild man LOL. Was one and the same the smell of sewer.

TC- the hoof trimming themselves, don't really have a smell. The dogs would chew on those trimmings like a fresh bone. The stuff he cleaned out with a pick, can't really remember but don't think they paid much attention to it
