Default RE: scent lock or scent block clothes

I own a lot of both Scent-Lok and ScentBlocker gear and have always felt that it does give me an edge. PLEASE do NOT think they are some magic cure all though! They will NOT allow you to "foget the wind" and just hunt, HOWEVER it WILL indeed redeuce your scent to an extent that instead of a predator perched only 20 yards away you may smell like someone over 200 yards away. Here in the ag country of IL that's enough to get a chance at a mature deer many times. I believe it also really helps as far as minimum disturbance to an area based on your entry and exit trail. Istead of smelling like fresh track it may smell similar to a trail that is many hours old. I can tell you of many stroies where I had only been in my stands for mere minutes, yet had P&Y class bucks come by and have NO clue that a hunter was anywhere in the country. For these benefits, NO miracles, I believe this clothing line is worth the money to all of those that can afford!
