Default RE: Are scent control products worth it??

I have TWO sets. I find them uncomfortable, stiffling, smothering, hot, etc etc. I wore mine exactly ZERO times last year. I saw the same deer as I'd seen the 2 years before or for that matter the last 10 years with or without. Be clean, wash your clothes, practice some scent control, and above all else... HUNT THE WIND. There's no deer that can smell you if you hunt the wind. The crap is way over rated and I suspect that most of these claims of "deer not smelling me" would have been anyway. "The wind was blowing straight at them and they never knew....."( but in fact if you throw up a wind floater you'd see it go out about 10 yards and make a U turn or hard left or something straight away from the deer. A couple cans of wind floaters will cost you $10 and last you for years. They're great little tools for finding those hidden wind shifts and currents.
