I know this has been discussed over the last few years but this will be the first year I try it myself. I have ordered a bee smoker and plan on trying it so has one of my buddies. What my question is what is the specific material you use for smoke in it? I watched on video that said dry pine needles works very well. Do any of you that do it use saw dust or wood shavings like we use to put in our chicken houses from sawmills. If the shavings work well what about using the type that you can buy in the bags for your dog pins or chicken coops.
I'm looking forward to trying something new this year, I like new stuff. I've tried a lot of scent control over the 45 or so years I've hunted with some helping and some not. Using the wind is the most important but I do feel that the smoker will be an advantage at least it's going to give this old guy a new trick.
Thanks for any suggestions you have for fuel of the smoker.
