Ghetto Tip Of The Day 04/12/08
Doctor Doctor give me the news I got a bad case of bow rope blues!!
We all know that scent can be a pain to control and our hands can be the biggest culprit. I stumbled upon this one while running a snowboard shop almost 12 years ago. I got a tip that you can use surgical gloves and wear them under gloves. The surgical gloves insulate the sweat in your hands and prevents it from absorbing into your outter glove allowing you to keep toasty hands.
Before every hunt I open the tailgate of the truck and put on my surgical gloves then grab my hunting gloves and put them on. The scent from my hands is contained and I can touch my bow rope and not worry about scent issues. I can also wear a thinner pair of gloves and increase dextarity.
I do have a funny story related to this tip and the cops but I will save it for a funny story sometime in the future.
