In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

Normally would get pissy about hunting. The different kinds of fat have different properties. Combine the "naturalness" of the fats and scents and it seemed to be an interesting into to talking about hunting.

I wonder if there is a way to extract scent from say Sage or Pine to add to the fat to make soaps or candles?

You either buy the extract oils or add the actual plant depending on what your trying to do. My wife makes an unsented and sented "Hunters bar" that I use. She has put lavender booms in the soap so we may have to try cedar and or pine needles
