RE: bowhunting clothes
Hey bluejay you dont need to run off and buy those expensive scent lock suits it is unnecessay. If you follow a few simple guidelines.
1. There are many great camo patterns, find the one that best suits your area that you plan on hunting, try to blend in with the surroundings. Many patterns to choose from.
2. Wash your clothing in a scent free laundry detergent. I simply use arm N hammer baking powder, very cheap and effective. While pulling your clothes out of the washer be sure your hands dont have any strong odor on them such as gas. Wearing rubber gloves would be a good idea.
3. Let your clothes air dry outside. Simply hang them up (clothesline, tree) make sure there is no smoke blowing towards them.
4. When Clothes dry simply put them into an airtight container (garbage bag) and put a few leaves and debris in the container (leaves, dirt, pine needles, acorns)
5. Rubber boots are your best bet to wear, but be sure to buy a comfortable pair.
6. Before I enter the woods I always take a shower with scent free soap and shampoo, and then I use Arm N Hammer deodarant (scent free).
7. While walking to my stand I imediately grab a hand full of debris from the ground and rub over my clothing. Step in deer crap on your way.
8. Shoot your deer and drag it home, find a taxidermist because it is going to be a big one. Good Luck!
