Default RE: " No Stinkin Bugs" Earth Scent

my friend shot a doe last saturday while wearing the earthscent bug spray. he shot it at 12 yards from the ground. im not sure of the wind direction though.

in maine, the scent did not seem to spook the bears. the unscented is sooooo much more effective though. it is like night and day compared to the earth scent.

Here is the system i use with the bug spray.

1. i spray bug spray on shirt, gloves, and headnet.
2. i let them hang outside for 1/2 hour to an hour.
3. i rub pine branches on them.
4. i have had deer, bear, moose, raccoon, rabbits, and suirrels come in and not one busted me.

this system i started in maine and continue it in new jersey. worked in maine. works just as good in jersey.
