RE: Bad Breath
 

If you really have bad breath, see your dentist. You may have another problem and eating jerkey is tough without teeth. I too have wonder about this question. I use all the shower and body stuff along with some spray and the suit. All in all, I'd have to agree with most of the posts advice. But I always have a pinch of Skoal in my lip when I'm in my tree and just keep my mouth shut. Everyone gets winded from time to time but I seldom get busted and think it is mostly due to paying attention to the days wind and never spit!

A friend of mine shoots deer all the time, he will sit and eat Slim Jims, drink coffee and whatever else he wants, he does not wear a scent blocker suit on his body or face, He has no problems shooting deer, but he hunts high, always 20 feet in the early season and as high as 30 to 35 feet in the late season. His breathe is horrible, hot garbage has nothing on this guy, it smells as if something crawled out of his rear, up to his mouth and died, then came back to life long enough to fart. Just hunt High.

Hunting ; an act of love for nature guided by the strongest spiritual forces.

Use listerine before you go out. If nothing else it is so strong you can stun the deer just by blowing in thier face.

I started carrying an apple to the woods with me and eating it before I walked into my stand and I believe it has made a big difference.

Peanut butter sandwich!!! MN DNR did a test, and found peanut butter to be the #1 deer attractant!!!!!

Just a quick comment on this. I brush my teeth with whatever toothpaste but I allways chew snuff in the stand and spit directly on the ground. I used to be hardcore and sit like a statue and never, never spit. Well one day I realized that I wasnt enjoying myself anymore so I quit all of that and began to relax a little in the stand. Dont get me wrong I still hunt well and any noise or even feeling will put me in statue mode. There have been times when I wonder if it may effect the deer but at least twice a year the deer tell me that it dont matter. As a mater of fact I hunted the hill country last week and had two does under my stand sniffing and licking the spit off the ground. Deer do not associate that smell with humans. Remember they smell strange and interesting things everyday in the woods and they are naturally curious. Anyway, my advice is cover scent. Snuff, Apple candy, etc..

I brush my teeth with a baking soda toothpaste and then rinse my mouth out with Hawgs Limited Vanishing Hunter, tastes awful but works.
