My father bought us a big duffle bag made by Scent Lok and I believe it came from Bass Pro.

the best way to go is to get scent lock from either cabelas or bass pro but if you just got a plastic wal mart bag i would buy earth scent or acorn scent wafers and put them in the bag it does the trick for me. they make a few different scent waffers

I put mine in those large rubbermaid containers. I then built a grate out of fresh pine to place my clothes on. Underneath I put some earth, branches, twigs & leaves from my hunting areas. I have a number now due to more camo, boots, etc. But I also hunt 2 very different landscape areas, so I just switch the clothes into whatever container I plan to hunt. Works well and very cheap. BTW, I always wash and hang dry my clothes at the end of the season then place them in their house for storage.

I have two. One is a large green one from H.S. It holds just about everything and has a two zipper enclosure and velcro tabs on the inner liner so it seals up pretty tight. Then for in the field I have a scentblocker camo duffle bag that holds what I am wearing that day so I do not have to lug that big bag around. They both are really nice. The H.S. bag is about $30.00 but the Scent blocker bag is a little salty @ approx. $70.00 bucks. Plus I put an earth scent wafer in each bag. It seems to work really well. The clothes in my scentblocker bad are not scentlock clothes they are just normal cotton fabric or whatever they are made of.

Help me I'm confused...I was under the impression that using the scent-lok bag with your scent-lok suit that you shouldn't put scent wafers inside. They are supposed to be absorbed by your suit/bag. Any input??? It makes sense to me, once I used the earth scent dryer sheets with my scent lok suit...Mistake! when I took it out of the dryer the was no earth scent at all...hmmn?
