I think the goal was to get the buck to stand in a spot where he could be shot and killed. The picture seems to indicate he was successful. Ok.

crappyice Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 what's strange about a natural acorn scent? My nice 3 year old 8 Buck from last season was stopped by some home-brew acorn scent I sprayed in front of my stand. Never had that happen with mature Bucks when using pee scents Can we get that recipe for the acorn spray? Think you posted your procedure once beforeSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you posted your procedure once before Very simple: I gather up a couple pounds of freshly dropped acorns, split them open a little, and them boiled 'em up for 20ish minutes. You then need to strain off and filter the water (I used coffee filters) if you plan to use it in a spray bottle. Grit will quickly clog the spray otherwise. Some folk throw in bits of twigs and pine into the pot. I suspect the best approach is to include whatever exists in the area being hunted. The resulting concoction is actually quite sweet. I plan a fresh batch soon and will put a camera over the test spray area. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Field_Ager Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 (edited) Oh, be sure and keep any home-brew acorn scent in jar in the refrigerator when not in use. It will develop mold if left out at room temps. I brewed a batch today and sprayed in front of a couple of cameras. First time testing it before the season like this. I will report back in a week with results. Last year was my first year trying it out. Smells great! Also, I use the metal mesh coffee filters for straining off particulate. Paper filters don't work.
