Default Homemade Scent Drag?

Does anyone have any tips for making a scent drag? I have checked all the stores in my area for a commercial one with no luck, so the next best choice is to make one. Any tips would be appreciated.

Thanks

Unscented tampon and some extra string. Works for me (and my wife)!

A real malehunter has no problems buying tampos. Hell,I buy them all the time. But then im married so i guess its to be expected.

So you don't want to buy the tampons, how about cotton balls? Both work very well.

Besides, do you know how much deer urine it would take to semi-saturate a tampon? Good Lord!
