Cedar or pine needles as I’m walking in. Fresh natural and free. I never get busted

This x2. Shines works pretty good. BA Tree pine is also decent. I always use a cover scent but typically set up with wind being the number one factor

Wind...in your face

This is the best in my opinion. I have a beekeepers smoke pot and it works great for smoking up before a hunt...

Turpentine

Used Shines Acorn Scent one time. Best yellow jacket and opossum attractant ever used. No Joke.

shines always make me crave bacon and waffles.

Weed

Yep. Shines on an 80 degree day in October is a yellow jacket magnet. I have used it off and on for years, especially bow season. It will sure attract some stinging critters.

I use nose jammer, idk if it is best or not

Nose Jammer does work

I like it but plain vanilla could work just as well?

Smoke works well. Get smoked up. Or Shine White Oak Acorn Scent.

Surprised nobody said crushed wax myrtle leaves

This

Hyperbole at its best

I'm actually going to try this, but I think I'm going to add something from a bag and possibly a little bit from a jar.

One serious question, how long do you let it sit before you use it and does it get better with age???

always worked best for me .

The stuff I happened upon makes them throw caution to the wind. Even more so than a piece of tail.

I always hesitate to post secrets or techniques because so many hunters can’t master the most important technique or “being still”.

So, you don't want your sons or grandsons to master the most important technique of hunting??? If they use your potion, they won't have to sit still since caution has been thrown into the wind.

You are right, hunters are always looking for that magic potion, that one thing that will increase their odds, give them an edge, whether it is the best equipment or that magic spot. It happens in hunting, fishing, baseball, golf or in almost any hobby. Where is the shortcut??? You've discovered that irresistible aroma that causes a buck to throw caution to the wind, never fails, and brings then in like mad, even better than a live doe in heat, which no doubt would be worth millions of dollars, and you are so noble that you want people to be better hunters so you will keep it to yourself. Please excuse my skepticism and sarcasm. Also, your name now makes sense to me...just sayin.
