It is a lot of work and I have done it but you have to know the glands and then grind and mix them. I found it much easier to let a professional scent man who has the blenders do the work. Grawes Animals Scent Whapeton, North Dakota .

Been doing this for 40 years and Ardell still makes the best scents and lures I have used.

Mike,
Is the bobcat scent you use from Grawes? I used some of their lion/bear scent years ago when I first was getting started......I didn't know what I was doing....not sure I do yet :) But it sure worked good.

Yes Mike uses only Grawe's bobcat and lion scent. It's great stuff. Mike also got me using it and I love it. If you do it right even a wise old hound will run the track just like it's the real thing.
