  • Patent number: 8490889
    Abstract: A scent dispenser is provided to dispense liquid scent during a hunt for wild game. The inventive scent dispenser uses age old scientific and natural phenomena to enhance the speed of the wind. The provided dispenser uses a venturi wind channel to accomplish a wind speed increase. Supported at its center of gravity from above or below, allowing rotation, the funnel shaped wind channel is continuously aligned with the wind direction by a wind vane. Liquid scent is introduced in the constricted section of the venturi wind channel where the wind velocity is increased. This increased wind speed, and continuous alignment to wind direction, enhances the vaporization of liquid scents that attract wild game, and that mask the scent of a hunter from the wild game's keen sense of smell.

  • Patent number: 8147290
    Abstract: A means of directly attaching one or more strikers of a slate type turkey call to that call. The attachment keeps the strikers and call as a unit for ready access and eliminates one rattling against the other when the call is not in use. The attachment is accomplished by diametral engagement of the strikers by an extension of the call body. The extension is an integral part of the call body or added as an accessary to an existing slate turkey call. Providing accurate diametral location, the invention is also used, with abrasive material, to effectively shape or resurface the sound producing end of the striker.
