Ditto to all the replies that recommend trying to remain as scent free as possible. However, you won't be able to eliminate 'all' scent from you. For this reason you may want to use a cover scent such as fox or coon piss or whatever critters you see in your given hunting area. I am a fanatic to a point of trying to remain scent free: up an 1hr early to shower w/scent free soap; store clothes in scent loc container; change when I arrive at the hunt site, etc). However, after getting in my stand one morning I watched a red fox come in and cross the trail I had walked in on and turned and went back the other way. He was not spooked, but apparently just didn't like what he smelled. Have tried using doe & buck pee in the early season w/o any luck.....
