    What bug spray is good to use during bow season that is effective but low on scent?

    Forget the sprays and get a Thermacell!

    I agree with the suggestion to use a Thermacell. If you use anything else use 100% Deet it will work

    Another vote for Thermacell. Easy to use, effective....only drawback is that the refills can get expensive.

    Thermacell.

    No need to worry about smell or getting the bug spray on your hand and transferring it to your bow, which will take off the paint! [:-]

    This will be your new hunting buddy!

    The only problem I have with thermacell is that it needs to be in a horizontal position, and that may not work for spot and stalk or still hunting...
