New guy with a question

Unread postby Crittergetter76 » Sat Nov 09, 2019 12:02 pm

Hey everyone, glad I found this place. I’m a Trad guy that loves hunting public land. I’ve had some decent success and have killed a couple mature bucks over the last few years hunting funnels. I love getting to the places no one else goes. I haven’t seen another hunter within a mile and a half of anywhere I hunt in several years. I’m Looking forward to upping my game and try hunting buck bedding.
Question, how do you all carry your milk weed and keep it accessible?

Welcome to the BEAST!

I leave mine in the milkweed pod with a rubber band

I also took a small scent wafer container from the ”prebeast days” put some of Lou’s stealth strips on it. Works great and doesn't make noise in my pocket against other things

Small pouch a pocket knife came in. Or just duct tape around it, then cut a small slit.

I pick it when I see it and leave it in the pod. Idc if it gets all over the place.. in my pockets or on my clothes, doesn’t affect a thing as far as I’m concerned

The seeds end up getting everywhere as I normally get some in my hunting clothing and when they go through the wash...

Lone wolf custom gear sells a milkweed holder for 24.99 plus shipping.

However, I use a plastic tylenol bottle to hold mine. :)

It grows in a perfect container. Sometimes I throw a rubberband around the pod.

I put mine in a clear spice bottle that has the big holes in the top, then put a q- tip In there to pull it out. You can put the lid back with q tip inside. Keeps from pulling a bunch out everytime
