I do a little of all 3. I put on my leafy suit at home, along with what ever I want to wear under that. When I get out of the truck, I put my coat, hat, rubber boots.. on. And if it is not cold enough to put my coat and stuff on at the truck, I will tie it around my waist, and put that and my hat on at the stand.

I'll wait until I'm parked close the hunting area then change into my hunting clothes , spray down with some Sent Killer and walk in the rest of way.

I said dress at home, but its more of a mix. I usually put my pants on at home, and x scent top, but get my shirt and jacket on after I park. Many times, the jacket stays off until I get to the stand.

In the past, I've gotten dressed at home but this year I'd like to get away from that and start dressing after I park. At least my outer layers.

ORIGINAL: mobowhuntr

I usually get dressed after I park. Mostly, anyway. I wear my first layer or two then blue jeans and a shirt over those. This year, however, I will wear my first layer or two then a set of uninsulated coveralls that have been washed in scent free detergent over them. I'll strip those off and put my outer layers on then...
I did this the past year, and I think it works fairly well. Shower in scent free soap and shampoo, dress in undergarments, put oncoveralls washed in scent free soap, and get dressed right before walking to stand. I mostly do this routine, as hunting come November and on is cold.

I always keep my clothes in plastic bags until I get out of the truck, then put them on. The only things my clothes touch are plastic and good ol mother earth.

I'm like most of you, I put on my hunting clothes well away from the truck once I've reached my property. I generally carry everything in a scent proof, rubber lined duffeland then drag it well away from the vehicle before I start layering on my Scent-lok and ScentBlocker gear. Then I add the rubber boots and then spray everything down with a scent killer type spray. I feel as if it really helps?

Easy, for me. I keep my huning clothes in airtight bins. So....I shower, then get dressed outside....and walk to my hunting spot.

I can walk to all of my hunting spots.
