Different strokes......different folks.....

pigiron, that's about what we all expect. We still do everything else to keep our scent down/away. Yes, you can still get busted wearing the clothes. That shouldn't surprise anyone. Nobody said it was magic. It's just another tool we use. Besides that, its quality made clothing. I would have bought my jacket and pants regardless because they have the exact pockets that I was wanting.
I'm no major proponent of scent-block clothing.....but I own some. In fact....I killed 5 whitetails last year wearing some sort of the garments. Let's leave price out of the equation (which is what this REALLY boils down to). What I REALLY want to know is.......why does it bother some.....that others are wearing something else? WHO CARES if it's scientifically proven, or not? I know I don't. I just know I hunt with these garments on like I hunt with non scent-block garments. I try to play the wind. I store my garments in scent-free environments. I stay as clean as possible. How can you argue with the results? It would be similar to arguing one pattern vs. another. Is one better? Who knows???? Do they both work? YES! is one more expensive? YES! If you're not paying for it, though.......WHY DO YOU CARE?

When everything else is removed........the garment is a piece of camouflage clothing. Will that piece of camouflage clothing work in a hunter's pursuit of killing deer?

We all know the answer to that question.

Why worry about what someone else pays, though.......it's transparent. I wouldn't say Don was crazy to pay the prices he pays for the LW stands. I bought one and hunted out of it twice (sold it to a forum member) because I think it's an inferior product to the stands I use (and not for quality reasons). It doesn't bother me that Don thinks otherwise. It doesn't affect me.
