Earth scent
Hey whats everyones opinion on spraying earth and leaf decay scent on after you have descented????
|
RE: Earth scent
I've had a doe with fawns walk up close enough to spit in her eye while sprayed with earth scented scent killer(oxymoron?), it doesn't seem to bother them. I always have Fresh Earth discs on the windows of my pop-up too.
|
RE: Earth scent
I always spray myself and gear down with that, and also have a Scent Waffer clipped on me.
|
RE: Earth scent
I use fresh earth scent cover scent and have my cloths in an air lock tub wiht fresh earth wafers in it. works great.
|
RE: Earth scent
thanks alot everyone, ill definately put some on and get some discs
|
RE: Earth scent
i rub fallen leaves on my descented gear. And it does the job never missed a deer. never spooked a deer.

RE: Earth scent
I believe the earth scent acts assort of anattractant! It seems that deerusually come check out a field after the dirt has been overtunered or plowed up. I think they come out of curiosity or maybe hoping to find fresh food or minerals. Thats just me though
|
RE: Earth scent
Wash my clothes in detergant that smells like fresh earth and store them in a rubbermaid rub with fresh earth waffers. When I go out to the field I spray on Essance of Fall.

RE: Earth scent
I do it all the time. I love the HS fresh earth scent cover

RE: Earth scent
If earth scent worked to cover your scent thena deerwould never smell where you walked. Put your nose on the ground where you walk and what do you smell? Dirt.....A deer can smell the dirt and where you walked with no trouble at all. Dont fool yourself into thinking a couple squirts of earth scent will cover the scent you put out. It doesnt and it cant...period

RE: Earth scent
sounds like a non believer. I believe the main thing is to not rely on it as a crutch. but yes it can give you those 10extra seconds you need for the right shot in case you get one of those swirling winds.

RE: Earth scent
I descent and place my camo in bags with leaves and such. Works pretty well. Considering nothing is 100% really.

RE: Earth scent
I use it every year and every day of the season!! I wash mine and dry mine in earth scent laundry detergent and dryer sheets! Then I place them in a rubbermaid tub with fresh earth dryer sheets and scent wafers, and spray down beofre each hunt as well with Fall Blend!!
|
RE: Earth scent
I scent free wash the gear and then use the fresh earth/fall blend and when I store them I use a fresh earth wafer in with them, and also a hand full or two of fresh leaves, they add a great smell and will absorb some moisture/oder if changed out reagularly

RE: Earth scent
To me, if you treestand hunt, when you put on the scented spray a deer is gonna walk by your stand and wonder what a big dirt clod is doing up in that tree. I have honeltly never used the stuff for that reason.
|
RE: Earth scent

|
RE: Earth scent
Simply the best.......use it every time!

RE: Earth scent
You know you make a point, but I tell you one thing, ive had deer walk the exact path as me and not spook at all since I started wearing rubber boots and using fresh earth. It works.

RE: Earth scent
Definitely use it. Why wouldn't you use every advantage you can when hunting. Masking scents are an advantage. To think a deer is going to think a dirt cloud is in a tree or smell your scent inside the earth is funny to think about. Wash, bag, spray...everyday!
