HAHA< I fully agree with this, hunters are suckers for gizzmo's and gadgets, as so many all seem to want a short cut to a BIG buck and willing to open wallets to do so, over spending more time in the woods!

I remember back in the early 90's when Tink's was marketing/selling, TURKEY scents LOL
and folks were buying it!


cover scents can help I guess,
IF I was to pick one, I would try and find one that smells like the most common thing in your area
and keep it mild in use
any thing that smells strongly will draw attention from any critter with a nose, making them focus on your area and often lead to them spotting you trying to find the new smell or STRONG smell

I tend to think the less you smell the better, not adding anything has done me very well over the decades!
