Scent blocker clothing

I always keep a cigar lit when hunting - helps me to read the wind.

$$$ spent on a good harness is far better spent than $$$ on scent blocking clothes.

Scent blocker clothing is a scam. Even if it was 100% effective which it isnt then everytime you exhale you saturate the air with scented molecules from your breath. Use your money for something useful and always dope the wind. I carry a small spray bottle of unscented talcum powder. It tells you what the wind is doing nicely. They are in the archery section with the face paint usually and cost @ $3 bucks.

x2. I've haven't found a scent blocking clothing brand yet that can contain my wind after a bowl of chilli and a few brews. lol. Play the wind as best you can, and take as many scent killing precautions as you can. I use an ozone generator to kill scent in all my clothes and gear before every hunt. It helps, but I still get busted the odd time.

It will not blow over them.. move the stand or put it on the other side of the trail. Clothes will not help either.. or an ozonator or anything else for that matter

How did we ever shoot anything before we had all these "must have" gizmos and gadgets? Our parents and grandparents are likely laughing themselves silly at us. LOL They didn't have any of these "necessities". They had no difficulty being successful hunters.

I can hunt other side of stand to behind me is a natural spring that they have been tearing it up pretty good. With a few good shooting lanes. Got a hang on to put up yet too.

Save your money and hunt downwind, no such a thing as no scent unless you zip yourself up in a plastic bag.

That's a good idea. That would be a lot cheaper. ;)

So true. Me and a buddy were talking about that the other day.
