Default RE: Scent free but.......

Anyone have any thoughts/opinions on this?
Yea I have tons of them - but the buying public doesn' t want to hear it

Scent is the MOST understood concept in bowhunting - being scent free or even close to scent free is 100% impossible. I analyze my scent free habits more and more every year. It is the biggest weakness we as hunters have in the woods - and it makes us easy prey for all the crap that is on the shelves these days.

We have beaten the Carbon suite thing to death so I won' t hammer that nail again

I also have a BIG problem with the crazy popular scent away sprays that it seems everyone soaks themselves in before every hunt. I stopped using them years ago. That stuff smells to me - is made of many compounds that are not natural to the woods and we cover ourselves in it. No one can even come close to prove that those sprays do anything to stop scent. What they do is smell nice to us - to our weak incapable noses it works.

99% of the scent products sold today and used by millions IMO are a complete Joke. They are designed to catch bowhunters not deer - and probably hurt more than do good.

I just hope and prey these companies don' t get into fishing tackle
It is going to be real tough catching bass on plastic T-Bone steaks and Plastic boobs
