the stuff works. anything that you can do to improve your sucess rate is worth a try. I have had experiences with and without the stuff, and I am far more consistent with it. I am nearly fanatical about it. I shower with it, have my towel washed in scentless soap, all my clothes are scent lok and then spray myself down with scentless spray. I would rather be good than lucky. I've had far more deer near me with the stuff than without it. I was far too narrowminded before to use it, and I wondered why my buddy (who used it) who was only 75 yds away was seeing, and killing deer sooo much more regurally than I was. btw, deer are hit by cars for one main reason...they cannot reason. kind of like the people that get hit by cars.
