Trusting your hunt to scent blockers and scent suits is as bad as never shooting your guns to check the zero! I go as scent free as possible, but I don't trust that!

Occasionally I will take either pieces of cotton or those wind checker fuzzies and kill time watching the reaction as they travel in the wind and depending on the thermals they will sometimes go up out of site. Ifa deer comes to you from the downwind side without reacting it is probably because of the thermals pushing your scent up. I am not a diehard believer in the scent blockers/killers.

Been there, tried them, they are a waste of money for the effort involved.
