And some of their tactics.

None of the above is necessary. I haven't done any of them until this year when I bought some rage broadheads for the hell of it. Seem to work good on the target tests and fly the same as my muzzys. I think I'll test em out this year and if they work, I can join the ranks of those who say I cant hunt without them. lol Back to point, no scent lock for me, just scent control but more power to those who enjoy it and buy it. Whatever works for ya!

Definately not a must! I typically only wash my jacket/pants 2-3 times at most per season. Just use a earth cover scent, and thats it... Deer all over me all season long.

Hunt the wind, and when they are close, be smart. Once they get in soo close no special suit etc. is going to help, just a little luck imo.

Play the wind! I do use scent killer on my boots. But on all day sits ive put a cigarette out to shoot deer. Not the best of practices i know. But i have done it. The posse i hunt with all use scent lock everything. I have equal kills.and possibly nicer bucks the majority of time. I shot a black bear last week at 17 yrds.sitting on the ground.after smoking.
