What would you do ???
Here is a question for you guys.
If you knew a product could not do what the manufacturer/seller said it could do
would you work for that company,
would you take advertising dollars from that company
would you be a pro staff member for that company
would you write good things about what it did, even if you knew it did not do them.
would you tell other people that you had evidence the product could not do what the manufacturer said it coUld do.
would you just say nothing.

1. because it could be any product, because I'm talking about a moral, ethical issue. And there are other products out there that we all know ar gimmicks. .
The fluff muffler (you screw it it) ouch
Turkey scent
any majic potion deer scent
doe in heat calls
8 foot goose decoys
2. because if I mention Scent Lok it will cause a big stink, and I am primarily wondering how people feel about (what appears to me as) a moral issue.
deer are color blind
cow elk use an estrs call to signal they are in heat
whitetail does use an estrus call to anounce teir rediness to breed
the "chuckle" is one duck calling to others to coem down and feed
turkeys 'drum" using their wings
whitetail does are influenced by the moon to come into estrus
I turn inot a werewolf during the full moon (actually it is a blood sucking vampire)

In your list of observations there are some I agree with and some I do not agree with. Point is, everone feels different about what animals react to. Any given product may work or not work on a given day. Some products may never work but this is America and free enterprize still exist. Unless a company is just making outlandish statements, let them try to make a living. Same thing has always held true....Buyer Beware.

No, I would not be pro any product if it did not work as it was advertised to be. I tried a blood tracker light a couple of years ago, several people on here discussed the product and it was generally agreed that it did not work as advertised. I sent it back and I do not say anything good about that product if the subject comes up.
I laugh when I hear the scent killer advertisement on TV that says "this product was tested at Rutgers? University on replicated human scent"? They couldn't find a single person that smelled like a human to test the stuff on?
I've never thought that Scent Lok worked as advertised, just doesn't make scense to me that it would. If they have independent testing using bloodhounds or other trained tracking dogs, and those test fool the dogs I might be interested. Testing would have to include used clothing also that had been reheated in a family type dryer that supposidly cleanses the built up scent in the clothing. Problem is I think a deer's nose may be better than a dogs, but I'm not sure about that.

in response to your initial question. i probably would. it's advertising. even if a product doesn't work for you it may work for someone. take acorn rage, i've never had any success with it, but maybe i'm just an exception. if they offered me sponsorship, i'd be dumping the stuff all over the country. i'm young, and gullible though so call me what you will.

I've tried several products that did not perform as advertised. When friends get together we all share information be it good or bad. In reality nothing really works as advertised, but if it lives up to an acceptable degree for an individual that's what matters.
