Default Scent Blocker

I was just wondering how you guys felt about scent blocker clothing and how many of you use it. Its something I can't really afford at this point in my life, and although i'm curious about it I can't help but be a little skeptical. I have been watching a lot of the Dream Season series on Mossyoak.com lately and the Drury brothers act like it is impossible to take an animal without it. Although I find the Drury brothers to be a little infatuated with gimmicks and gadgets so im not really surprised. Anyways just wondering how you guys felt about the stuff.

I just store everything I have in scent free containers with leaves,twigs,acorns etc. and never were them until im in my hunting area.I havehand only a few times I was winded while doing this.I do use silver XP cover spray and earth scent cover spray.I do use a scent lok back pack just to hide all my gear and snack odors.I am not against any scent eliminating products I just cannot see spending that kind of money for something that does not work 100% but it does help.

magicman <-------- stinks like human! Uses wind to his advantage. Buys Windsor and sour with the money he saves on scent controlling clothes.

I have never used scentblocker but i plan on purchasing a suit next year. But one day I got off late one friday and didnt have time to get all that i wanted to get done. It was like 85 degrees that day and went out and got in the stand at like 5 30. I didn't spray any scent blocker, wore nothing on my face, and only a camoshirt and boots. Wound up taking a doe downwind 20 yards away from me. So there ya go...... But don't get me wrong that was ONE time and I will never do that again nor do I recomend it. Just got lucky I guess. But anyways I'm all for scentblocker haha , going to buy some this year!
