Default RE: Scentblocker or Scent lok really needed?

If this stuff was cheap, then I'd buy the "another scent control tool" angle. But it ain't. If you play the wind when you hunt, you'll be successful. If not, you're BUSTED! I don't know anybody personnally that bow hunts that doesn't practice sound scent control. Sound scent control has nothing to do with Scent Lok or Scentblocker. Does it provide some benefit? Maybe. But a deers sense of smell is 10 times greater than that of a dog. Human scent is all over the woods. My experience, deer use two of their three senses to bust you. Trigger one sense, they'll try to verify with another. I'm not talking about obvious stuff like a stand creeking, or moving fast. How many times have you had deer circle you to get down wind of you? How many times have you seen them put their nose up and start brousing the trees, listening for the slightest sound. Deer aren't neccessarily spooked by sight, sound, or smell. The minute they connect it to a human being present, busted.
