Cover Scent? I know it depends on where your hunting and what's in the area. But what do you find yourself using? Talk about it? I'm just curious what's used most...my guess is with Fresh Earth.

Fresh Earth?
Pine?
Cedar?
Acorn?
Corn?
Apple?
Persimmon?
Something Else?

Fresh Earth is something I use quite a bit. Alot of times I just break off some natural green foliage in the area and rub it all over me.

I tend to spray down with a fine mist of Dead Down Wind or something similiar and then I just rub either cedar or pine needles all over my clothing, as we have both in the area I hunt.

What's the point of using a cover scent?
If they're smelling your cover scent, then they're smelling you too

ignorance is bliss..... grin

I've used baby deer piss, fresh and frozen. for a dozen years to cover my walk in and out from my stand. I have never, in hundreds of encounters, had a BAD reaction from any deer, buck or doe. Most, prolly 70% sniff the trail and walk on. Some will trail me to the stand. Some just ignore it altogether.

None, nada, not any of them have had a "spooked, upset" reaction.

I don't use any cover scent IN the stand, just to get there...

Usually nothing. No reason other than I hunt on the ground and like said above, if they smell the cover scent it is going to smell like human scent with a little pine mixed in. I gave up climbing about 5 years ago. I mainly check the forecasted wind and then just hunt accordingly.

This past Friday I had a doe walk within 10 ft of me before she winded me. I was sitting against a tree, full camo and headnet, had been hunting for about 4 hrs and was sweaty and also had a Thermacell going full blast. When she did hit the scent, she about turned inside out but only ran about 30 ft before stopping and calmed down before slowing walking off.

Occasionally I'll break off a pine limb and crush the foliage to rub all over me, but most of the time I just hunt the wind. They are going to smell you if they get downwind.

not available for purchase anywhere I know of.

I raise orphaned fawns(licensed) every year for last 30 years. I collect fawn pee after they take a bottle and freeze it.

never understood how smoke would be a good cover sent, unless your in an area that for some strange reason has fires on a regular basis. Personally if I smell a fire while hunting it alarms me, cause it's something I hardly ever smell while in the woods. I'm sure it would have worked well for settlers and indians though.

Well then, I see no reason why you couldn't give a little to some fellow aldeer brothers. Other than the fact that it belongs to you and you don't have to. grin

You get coyotes coming to the fawn pee? Seems like you would. Never known a yote to pass up tender young venison.
