DO YOU QUALIFY AS A SCENT CONTROL NUT?

These are the thing I do to become scent free – A GHOST IN THE WOODS or a NUT.

1. One month before the season starts I stop wearing cologne so not to contaminate the truck I drive.
2. Clean out truck most important the seats and floor board of any scent from everyday use about month before.
3. Get my hair cut with a no. 2 shear, buzz, less hair contains the most scent.
4. Run washer without any clothes to remove any scent from washer
5. Wash hunting clothes scent-a-way soap and hang outside for about a week.
6. Wash hunting boots that I only where during deer season and hang outside for about week.
7. I do not dry clothes ever during deer season.
8. Make bag scent free so I put clothes in it.
9. Keep clothes in bag separate from anything else.
10. Fill gas tank the day before hunting.
11. Watch what I eat few days before hunting, nothing that would cause more order. Skip all red meat two days before.
12. Have a watch just for hunting only wear then.
13. Before I hunt I shower with hunting watch on.
14. Shower with Scent-a-way soap and shampoo.
15. Day before I put on B-Scent Free Extended Wear Deodorant from Johnson Labs.
16. That morning I spray with Scent-a-way soap. Including my bow.
17. Before I leave the cabin area kick dirt over my boots and lower legs to put local scent on me.
18. On hots days or evenings I dip my shirt/hat/headnet and sometimes my head into my cooler water and put it on to keep me from sweating getting to the stand and keep the scent on me sense water will hold scent to you and not drifting into wind. Same reason a deer licks its nose to catch more scent on it. Only problem is when it cools off fast I get a little chilly.
19. Sometime a spare set of clothes to change into if hunting away from home for the second day of hunting.
20. While hunting I use Buck Wear Tick Gators to keep my pants legs in my boots to keep any scent from coming out from under my pants legs.
21. I don’t smoke ever anyway, put for drinks I drink water keeps me cool and has no scent.
22. Eat Rice Crispy Treat fill me up fast, quite to east and have little to no smell.

That is all I can remember. What make you a scent free crazy person. Don’t your wife love you. Plus there is always the guy that never does nothing and kills more deer.LOL

Second part of the question is how close have you gotten to a deer?

For me it is inches had 8 point buck step across leg and brush broad while sitting on log bowhunting for the first time.

IDK if i'm a nut.... better ask my friends. I mean I wash my cloths in scent free detergent, keep them in a tube with "natural" scent in it. Take a shower in the morning with anti-oder sope. Use just about everything that's anti-oder and has a natural scent to it. And i was cover scents and deer scents. Anything and everything to mask my scent and draw unsuspecting deer in!!!! So yeah i guess i am.

horntagger you sound like me, i just don't skip the red meat. one thing i may add that i do is no hair spray or gel. a few weeks before season i start using only sent-away soap until season is over. i don't let my girlfriend wear perfume around me or in my truck. only wear sent free deoderent all season every day.

I am no scent free nut. yes, I shower, wash hunting gear in scent free soap. I use scentfree deod. on the body, no girl lure or hairspray. Keep my clothes in a rubbermaid container with leaves, stick and earth. Clean out the truck and spray with scent eliminator. I still fill the truck up with gas on the way out of town. Will often wear my camo clothes to and from and boots. I drink pop occasionally once the bugs have died off.

I am however a wind freak, I will not hunt marginal winds, if the wind shifts I move.

Closet I have come to deer this fall, 2 evenings ago 2 does and 4 fawns decided to walk within 2-3 feet of me on the ground. I gave her a snort and she dropped some presents and away they went without a peep. I guess something must have worked!

I was wondering if I was the only one out there that did this. Im very scent cautious. I mean very scent cautious, My wife thinks im weird.....lol. Ive had 4 or 5 deer under my stand for hours so i must be doing something right.

Nope,Not me and last year I shot 6 deer within 20 yards. I eat pizza ,steak sandwiches and if it is warm air out my feet.

i do many of the things you listed,even the watch just for hunting but i don't shower with it on.huntin close are washed in scent free soap and then bagged with baking soda for the whole season,except when hunting.for gun season i'm not as critacal but play the wind as much as possible.one thing i do that you didn't list is on warm days i shower with baking soda.this almost elimanates sweting,no swet means no stink.i use scent ellimanating spray religously(scent shield)i also bring apple wedges(in a bag)to the woods.the old saying"an apple a day keeps the dentist away"it also keeps mouth oders to a minamum.apples contain a chemical that nutralize mouth oders.am i a scent nut??i guess i am.the closest i have been to deer is also inches,i am a ground stand fanatic.my closest buck kill was 2 feet(i was on one side of the tree he was on the other side),a small 6 point.i paced 8 feet to my arrow after it went thru the buck.last year i pushed a yearling off his feet,that deer was under a foot away(just about ran into me) and i couldn't resist.that poor thing about had a heart attack.wish i had the video going for that.

i'm not quite as bad as you are but i do go to extremes to be scent free
