Hey guys,

Sorry ifthis some of you think this threadseemsa little 101...but there's always an educational curve involved when it comes to forums, or anything for that matter...some who read this material may find it helpful and some may find it a little sub-par to their level of deer hunting education....and yes, the 117 mag's out there may cover this material on a regular basis, but there are some out there who may be brand new to the sportand may have never read those articles, and may have questions...and thisthread is for those...

as far as scent contol goes, I think you have to do a little more than just play the wind and wear rubbler boots, as that definitely helps...I think there's some good spray on products out there that help control scent, and as I don't think you should over do it, I think you should use it on a regular basis...a good scent program is the best solution...I've done it for years now and had great success and I'm sure if you talk to any of the other successful hunters who tag a big mature buck, year after year, they'll tell you the same...you have to have a good program..
