Rolling in elk turds and piss is part of the experience. Its not for everyone, thats why we need our own season for archery.
A hunting buddy I have would cut the piss patch off anyones elk at camp and put it in a ziplock bag. He would put it on ice and or freeze it for the next year. Before he took off for the days hunt he would rub that patch over his arms and legs.
The thing with cover scents, these animals have complex and sensitive noses so I don't think there is any very effective cover scent. Not to say nobody ever benefited from rubbing such god awful things on them. That said, I'll work the wind and not get piss all over my stuff.Quote from: Special T on April 20, 2016, 09:38:11 AMA hunting buddy I have would cut the piss patch off anyones elk at camp and put it in a ziplock bag.

What I recommend is cutting that sucker off and throwing it as far away as possible.
I've tried it, but I prefer to just keep the wind in my face. When you have it on you you can't tell if you are smelling your self or actual elk. Maybe if I was in a tree stand I'd try it again.
