One reason you may not be seeing as many deer could be that they are being attracted to another place away from yours . Have any of the neighbors recently begun practicing QDM by any chance ?

I' m a dentist and avid bowhunter, so I know the importance of breath control from both aspects. Because of t whitetails incredible sense of smell (80 to 100 times better than humans), scent is THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUE when trying not to be detected. The best product I've seen is Gumoflage (by Hunting Science, Antigo, Wi)...it's a pine flavored gum with Chlorophyll that completely eliminates bad breath (trust me, I'm actually suggesting this to many of my patients just for bad breath-some that don't even hunt). Simply chewing Chlorophyll tabs or wheat grass is bad for you, and makes you crap green. Chewing Chlorophyll gum works if you're hunting amoungst wintergreen or mint plantations (that's sarcasm...they'll smell the mint on you!). The one complaint I've heard is that it's too expensive (4.95 per pack of 12)...my question for you is, how much was your Scent-Lok suit???
