I make my own each year. The formula is widely available on the net. I also carry a sock filled with baking soda and will dust myself occasionally.

make a fire before you head in and stand in the smoke. best thing you can do.

Marlboro Light smoke covers 99.999% of all human scent :D
60% of the time, it works every time.

i usually just spray the bottom of my boots with racoon pee. and use scent away. but i'm gonna switch to using baking soda in a sock. that's genius, this and coon pee should keep me in the good!

I use scent away and never have much problem. You can read on AT for an hour about using smoke, some of those fools even buy a "smoker" to use as a cover scent. I guess it works.

My head hurts too much "pre-hunt" for me to wake my booty up, get out of bed, go light a smoker(well that kind anyway) and stand and get the grill hot and smoke myself out.....FTS....spray a little HS scent away and go...grab a dip and it will cover you up.

Thanks guys. might have to try the baking soda deal. What I have always done and seems to work well is buy the h.s. scent fresh earth wafers. Then I put them in the bag i carry all of my hunting clothes in and man they definitely come out smelling like dirt. simple and cheap

ryan, the coon piss on the bottom of the works great with all the coons we have. You'll always see a bottle on my atv.
Why is my mouth so dry this morning, when I drank so much last night?
