Hi guys. My name is Keith and I work for Robinson Outdoors. We make Scentblocker clothing. I' m not in the sales end of it, I' m more in the operations part, and I deal with procuring the carbon, etc. Don' t worry, I' m not going to try to convince anyone to buy anything, but I do want to talk about the technology. I remember when I managed the Compound Doctor Archery Pro Shop here in Minnesota many years ago when ScentLok first came out. I and many of my customers had our doubts then, but not any longer. I' ve done a lot of the research now and spoken to the experts - the chemists and PhD' s. There is no disputing the fact that carbon is still the most adsorbent material we know of to date. It does everything from filter our water to remove colors from solutions to adsorbing odor. There simply is no denying it - this is fact. Now the big question it seems to me is that this Corrigan fellow claims they might work originally, but can' t be " re-activated" with the temperatures obtained by our home dryers. Well, I can try to show you all kinds of literature and research and technical data, but I am simply going to say to him " I' m not going to argue with you, I' m just telling you you' re wrong" . Once you understand how carbon works it gets a little easier. Carbon has the largest surface area per size of particle of just about anything. This surface area is where odor is adsorbed, and note I say ad, not ab. It' s not like a sponge, where it goes inside, the substance being adsorbed is attached to this huge surface - more like how smoke sticks to your windshield. It is held their by a physical force (Van der Waal' s). This force is easily broken by temperatures that your dryer can achieve - 100 to 150 degrees. What Corrigan was referring to is the high temperature required to break the chemical bond created when carbon adsorbs things like hazardous waste, etc. I know I' ve gotten a little technical, and again, I' m not trying to convince anyone to run out and buy a suit. I' ll agree, they are expensive. But when I compare the cost of my suit to all the other expensive of travel, license, gas, lodging, equipment - it is actually rather small relatively speaking. And, since I can' t always predict which side of the darn tree the bucks are always going to walk on (if I could, then I might be able to just play the wind), especially when the rut is on, then I am going to do everything I can to give myself a better chance at mature animals. I agree, often you can get away with stuff on immature critters, but to consistently see and kill big, mature bucks, I need every advantage I can get. Aside from the technical aspect, I know they work simply because I am seeing and killing bigger bucks now than before I used carbon clothing, and I hunt the same spots. So, good luck everyone. Have a great season. Keith
