Default The smells of hunting

Iwas walking into a convenience store today when I passed by an idling diesel pickup. The first thing that popped into my head when the smell hit my nose was HUNTING! About the only time I'm exposed to the sweet smell of burnt diesel are my annual hunting trips out of state. One of my hunting buddies has always had diesels and now the smell triggers those memories.
I was wondering what smells trigger your fondest hunting memories?

Honestly, (and disgustingly), sometimes my brother will have gas that smellspretty similar to gutting a deer when the stomach is open. Not like I seek out this smell, but its a definite memory trigger.

Couldn't you come up with just one smell a little more pleasant than that....that's a bad memory trigger.

I wish I could, but that's the one that sticks out.
