The last thing I'd do is "spary myself to smell like a cow", because I can't count the times that I've been able to smell'em before I could see'em, and if I smell like 'em, I sure as heck won't be able to do that. As has been said, the gillie is not a spot and stalk product. And, IMO, it's more useful whilecalling predators than it is an animal on the hoof, especially when you're calling the animal to you, and when it comes, it's looking for you.
