RE: How to descent your stuff w/o spending a fortune?
You got some great suggestions, use them. The only thing I would add is place your clothing in a cedar box with pine straw ect. If you can't find a cedar box buy some chips and place them in a bag with the clothing.
And yes, keep your face into the wind! no matter how sent proof you may think you are the deer will pick you up under the right sercumstances.
Happy hunting!
KEEP HUNTING THE GREAT OUTDOORS & GOD ALIVE, PASS IT ON!
