My buddy practices NO scent control at all.......his wife washes his clothes in Tide and uses perfume smelling dryer sheets etc........he washes with regular soap and uses regular deodorant.......no sprays of any kind.

He gets plenty of deer.

I practice good scent control. Scent free wash and deodorant, fresh earth spray and scent killer spray and local foliage in my clothes bag.......fresh earth wafers in bow case. Nothing fanatical and truthfully as the season gets longer my scent control gets attention.

I get plenty of deer.

Not sure what that means........other then there is more then one way to skin a cat.


One big thing I think most guys overlook is that they worry so much about themselves and forget all about the 50 other guys out there. Unless you have your own land and know you are the only guy out there then you are really just rolling the dice. On public or well hunted private land there is always the chance that the day before you set up there was a guy sitting 20 yards away smoking all day with no scent control and making all kinds of noise...........then took a big steamy dump on his way out. All the precautions in the world are not gonna save you there. Just like if 10 guys were in the woods with wicks soaked in Tinks yesterday it probably isn't a good idea to use it tomorrow.........and that has nothing to do with the product.

One of my spots I have been scouting since early summer..........I went in to trim some shoting lanes and there was some moron walking all over the place small game hunting. [:@]


Sometimes it's a gamble.
