DIY Wind Checker- Milkweed

I just use the little hairs on the back of my neck. Works best when you are getting close.
 
I run milkweed all yr long here in KS in a little deal I found off of Amazon on my binos
 
I think fred bear invented using milkweed pods for wind sometime in the 60s. Thistle also works. I dont rig them to anything i just grab a pod or two while im out hunting.
Please do not throw thistle seed around, we have a hard enough time trying to get rid of that stuff.
 
I use dog fur and put it in a 35mm film canister or something similar. When I use the black powder rifle it goes in the patch box and on my bow there is a little stick on patch of velcro that will hold enough for all day.
