Default RE: Scent Lock clothes

I don' t use Scentlok brand clothing because of the expense , but I do wear Mil issue chemical suits while hunting . They are also carbon lined , and yes they do work . If you' d like to see for yourself , you can buy the chem suits at sportsmansguide.com for $15 . This will give you a cheap opportunity to try carbon clothing . If you like it as much as I do then you can decide whether or not you want to invest in Scentlok . Be forewarned , carbon clothing is an excellent insulator , so temps over 40 degrees can be downright uncomfortable . I can take temps down to 0 degrees with nothing more than pants and a t-shirt under them with insulated boots . Scentlok and others make lighter weight clothing for early season hunting . If you think you have a " smell" problem , try adjusting your diet to eliminate odor causing foods before hunting . You can find info on this at WebMd , but one of the most common " smellers" is caused by drinking the night before . Bathing in scent control products will help a lot . If bucks are busting you by smell you probably aren' t paying attention to the wind either , hunt into the wind where practical .
