Wash your clothes with scent free detergent. Shower and wash your hair with scent free soap the green kind. Then spray all your gear and clothes with scent killer spray. Being scent free is an all or nothing strategy. Around here you can watch smoke and tell that the wind changes directions several times in an hour on most days. I like to do like Frank says and use doe in heat scent in at least 3 different places around my stand but not too close to you. Doe in heat scent works best just before the actual rut. Once the real does all go into heat there will be too many hot does smelling up the woods for a big buck to come to your lure. I have had good luck when I put my doe in heat scent where the prevailing wind for that day will blow the scent into the area where I think the bucks will be. Like their bedding area. If you see a buck dont breathe with your mouth open or it might smell your breath or your toothpaste. I chew spearmint gum and it doesnt seem to scare the deer away. Sometimes it attracts them. Dont tell anyone else my secrets.
