The best is the one that you yourself perceive to give the best value for the money, but all are temporary at best and will never provide total protection. You'll do just as well using ordinary baking soda/peroxide based sprays and playing the wind in the long run, my advice is to invest in those instead.

scent control suits are a BIG waste of money in my opinion. just another hunting gimmick designed to seperate hunters from their money. those t.v. host shoot big bucks because they are hunting high fence property or property that is intensely managed withVERY limited access. use scent control sprays, watch the wind direction and hunt high!

I like the scent blocker brand. I have the bibs and coat that interchange from orange to realtree. I try to be a conscience about scent as I can. I dont go over board and buy scent blocker socks, boots,gloves etc. but i think that the use of a good suit with the addition of scent control sprays, soaps, and hunting high.

I have not drank the "scent blocker suits " Kool-Aid yet. A few of my hunting buddies have and in our camp house talk, they seem to be getting busted about as often as I am. My opinion echos several others that have already responded ... stay clean, away from the "fru-fru" soaps, and try to set-up down wind of where you think the deer will be passing by ... well aboveif possible.

when it comes to scent control, you have a handful of different brands to choose from. The two biggest players are Scent Blocker and Scent-Lok, the material used to absorbe scent in both are both the same.....

Yup! Scent blocker suit companies should be sued for fraud!
