RE: Making your own cover scent?
Take acorns from the area,put about a 1/2 gal in a big pot.mash a few of them,bring to a boil for about 5 min,let cool strain and put into a spray bottle.works fairly good.
a real good cover if there are cows,put a fresh pile into a bucket cover with a couple quarts of water,stir,strain real well,(some times you have to strain two times through something like thick cotton) maybe a tee shirt. put into spray bottle. ( JUST SPRAY ON YOUR RUBBER BOOTS.)

remember keep your back to the sun, your knife sharp, and your powder dry.
