Default RE: Camo Clothing and scent control

I like 3-D suits. They break up your outline better than regular clothing. As far as colors go, deer species see in shades of grey and yellow and they are ultraviolet sensitive, so I keep from putting to much stock in color patterns, but I do make sure I use uv killer in all my hunting clothing and I never put them on until I am out in my hunting areas. I carry them in scent free bag. If I wear something on top of my scent lok liners, I store it in pine bows. In the early archery season all I wear are two scent lok liners. When I bow hunt on the ground, I always cover my eyes with a little see through flap I have sewed on my scent lok head cover.

Scent-lok and the science behind it is sound, and I won't step in my whitetail hunting areas with out both of my liners on after I have washed and sprayed down with "vanishing hunter". Is the scent lok worth the money. YES IMO! In the past 5 years since I have started using it, I have killed at least 1 mature buck (120-140) class each year at less than 20 yards. I have seen many more including couple a big boys that I could not get a shot on and three of the harvests came from my mock scrape lines. A mature buck won't tolerate mock scrapes that smell like human odor. I also wear at least one scent lok liner and rubber boots everytime I scout and video in the off season.
