Default rubber boots leaving scent behind

I beleive one of the most important things to bowhunting being as scent free as possible although I also beleive it is almost impossible to be scent free yourself. I on the other hand think it is more important to play the wind when hunting and not leave behind any scent to tip deer off that you are in the woods. It is impossible in most instances to not cross deer trails on the way to stand. I have tried several defferent boots the last being the lacrosse alphaburly sport. They are bubber on the outside and neopreme inside to be light and comfortable. I have had great luck so far w/ them but yesterday I had a 3 point cull buck I was wanting to take out of the area come up to the area I walked in and bust me. I think the problem is that I kicked the boots off to take an old foot warmer out of the boots and maybe in the process my sock touched my boot and got sweat on it. This ticks me off to no end. I also keep them in a rubber maid tub when not in use and have never put them on in the car or warn them anywhere but hunting. Do you think that it is possible to sweat through the boots or is this stupid. This really ticks me off.

Please respond with tips!!!!!
