let me tell you something about scent control....It is one of the most overrated sales pitches i've ever seen..Dont get me wrong If a critter smells you then the game is over..On that same tolken, If the wind shifts into an animals favor,It doesn't matter how much scent lock you think you need to wear and sweat in....They are going to smell you..You think saxton pope or art young had scent control???Or how about the indians???I say hunt hard always know what the wind is doing use the topogaphry and dont buy in to all the scent gimics..

You should always hunt the wind anyway. Scent Blocker clothing just gives you more of an advantage. I am a believer, i had my whole suit on and had 8 does standing 40 yds away from me downwind, the sat there for about 20 mins eating and as soon as they wernt watching i took off the headnet and about 1 min. later the flags went up and the started snorting and took off. You can say what you want but if you try one you will never go into the woods without it.

On the other hand Saxton Pope and Art Young didn't have a compound that could shoot a hunting weight arrow 300 fps and the Indians often killed their game with multiple shots. If you're a traditional purist that's fine, I respect your commitment, but I'm going to give myself every advantage possible. I know some products are gimmicks, but some do tip the scales slightly in your favor, so I'll use those.

Kevin1, that's a good find. I guess you could also use that thing to disguise yourself as a duck and stalk up to the deer quacking. I remember a number of years back Golden Eagle had Breath Away gum. I bought a pack to see what it would taste like. It wasn't bad, kind of like vanilla. I doubt it helped me see any more deer though.

how the heck would you anchor properly dressed up as donald duck quack quack quack. I wonder what bucks would think if they seen a giant duck sitting up in a tree.
