Default RE: Being Scent Free?

Like everyone said, wind is most important. My clothes are washed several times each season and hung out to air out. Then they are packed/stored in large rubbermaid containers. I also do not overlook the boots, they are a big culprit not only in scent drifting through the forest but also in the scent trail I leave. I never wear my boots anyplace but hunting. If I stop for coffee, I walk in barefoot so as not to step in gas/oil/or antifreeze in the lot. I also step in all the deer poop I see on my way in, I figure that is natural enough. If there are apples in the area, I stomp on one I bring from home to get that scent on my boots. Baking soda and baking soda mixes help also. I don' t buy all the charchol or scent lock clothing although my buddies swear by it. I just never seem to have a problem getting close with my crude methods.
