Deer have a highly refined sense of smell. If you are going to be a successful deer
hunter, you must cover up your human smell.
You can go to a sporting goods store and spend from four to twelve
dollars on a bottle of scent blocker; or you can, like me, make your own. Since juniper trees are common in my area, I
like to make scent out of juniper berries.
First gather a double handful of juniper berries and needles.
Drop the juniper in a blender along with about 20 ounces of
hot water.
Blend the mixture for a few seconds.
Strain the mixture through a coffee filter to remove the
solids. This can take a while.
Now pour the green, aromatic liquid off into a spray bottle.
Voila, you’ve made scent blocker. Just spray it on your clothes, boots, and
boot soles. This mixture will start to
mildew in the bottle after a couple of days, so don’t bother making a big
batch. If you need more it’s easy to
make.
