odor?

hunt the edge and hope he comes through the middle, sneak in on the edge your gonna set up on as well so your not sending your scent across the area you think they are.

I think all these products are helpful but in the end make little difference.  I use a few also.  Cant hurt.  Treestands do seem to help.  My dad smells like an ashtray!  He smokes alot.  He hunts wind, no scent control, no camo, nothing but old orange vest and hat.  He does very well.  Hes bagged 6 or 7 bulls the last ten years and several deer.  He stinks, doesnt hide and walks the wind very slowly.  He is a rifle hunter so he doesnt need to be close but most kills have been within 150yards.  He also has hawk eyes, lol.  WIND...

wind wind wind , and just stay freash as you can , a lil cover sent dosn't hurt but there nose will bust you every time , there's always something that dosn't smell right . i dont use elk sent since I like to smell them .

echo again; watch the wind direction

now good base layer merino garments worn next to skin help, its natural. Better than any silver nano-whatever treated stuff.
I like Core4 base layer merino, other base or mid layers are Sitka merino and First Lite merino for camo patterns.

and clean your body regularly. I do so when in camp after the everydays hunt and always I have e-z to use scent away wipes etc in my pack while in the field, just as an additional precaution.
