I think nearly all scent control is a gimmick, at least with the deer I'm hunting around.


When I was a kid, I sat with my grandfather on a log. We wore our farming overalls, greasy work boots,and a winter coat. He smoked A&M's, andhad a bright red CASE International hat. Never did I see a deer pay attention to the smell...and still to this day have never seen a deer smell me..and then blow out of sight. So when guys were hunting deer 50 years ago w/o any scent control products...and killed deer left and right......how in the world did the deer population gain the amount of intelligence it takes to identify dangerous odors just in recent years?


Again, I think it's 99% gimmick. PT Barnum's advice works on deer hunters too.
