The point is, the higher the hunter is placed, the more the hunter is able to get away with. His scent is no longer much of an issue,
I did forget to mention how I really enjoy this line. I guess that their are no thermals where this author hunts.. and/or you forgot to mention that.

Absolutely well said! I dont see where people believe this eliminates there smell! IMO... it almost makes sense to me that the higher up you are the farther out the wind can carry your scent, just speaking here.
In some cases it is true though. Scent can never be eliminated no.In the morning the thermals are goin to be going up taking your sent up and away. However the more important thing about height is it gets you out of a deers line of sight and perifrial vision more allowing you to move more and draw easier on them. I personally like it higher. Higher the better for my tastecuz I can see more and feel less like im sticking out naked in the woods and allows me to look around and move more when I have those darn does at close range. Makes me less nervous and gives me confidence to do thigns without bein seen so easily. WCL
