The team at Outdoor Devotion is proud to announce that Buck Fever Synthetics has officially signed on with OD.

“I have been using Jim’s products since 2017. They really work. Mock scrapes haven’t worked very well for me in the past, but after my 2017 results, I am all in. It’s all about the synthetic formula that never spoils, vs the urine style that can spoil. Very happy to partner up with Buck Fever Synthetics.” – Jared Van Hees, Outdoor Devotion Founder.
