Scent killers?

[bow4elk]

Crap, I remember by Uncle bowhunting with a lit cigarette in his mouth...

The first year Kansas allowed non-resident hunting, my partner and I met up with Jim Dougherty to hunt some monster whitetails.  Jim was a smoker back then and didn't give it a second thought.  I was really surprised that he smoked while hunting.  That always bothered me for some reason.

Back east (east coast), my dad used to collect acorns and boil them in water to get the inerds into the water. He'd then pour the remaining liquid in a squirt bottle for a cover scent.

I usually use the sport wash UV killer and drop a fresh earth dryer sheet in the plastic space bag before sealing it up. The bags keep the clothes dry on the hike in if it's raining.

My brother and i are both new to bow hunting. last year was my first year and this year is my brothers first. I won some 99% sent killer at a 3d shoot so we gave it a try.  i was in my tree stand yesterday and had 5 cows and a nice 6x6 bull walk right under the stand and they didn't even catch wind i was pretty happy. the stand is only hung about 10 feet too.

I don't do a damn thing but watch the wind.  Other than making the occasional nice garment I have laughed my ass off at all those investing in Scent lock.  How many bags of clothes sealed and packed with baking soda do you think I carry into the deep woods.  Go to all that work and within 10 seconds of exposure, they smell just like you do. LOL

I'm with Bone on this one.  After a day in the backcountry there's nothing that you can do to stop the human scent from coming through.  All you can do from there on in is hunt smarter.  The only thing that I can guess is that OCD-guy is pulling our leg.  Nobody can do that much for more than one day and actually think it helps, but if he does, then DAMN!  Maybe he is able to get back to the camper each day for a shower...I know I sure can't, and I hunt out of a camper too.

Im telling you man piss is great works all time of the year!!.confuses the deer 

had a two point walk up on me yesterday until he was about 30 yards and realized i wasnt his momma.........I wasnt even paying attention he scared the hell out of me cause I was watching some bucks about 500 yards out waiting for them to bed.........by the way the wind was blowing right towards that buck........so it must work right?

i took off my boots one day after a really hot work day a few weeks ago.  they smelled like hot garbage so i went and got the scent killer thinking this would be the ultimate test.  if it could kill the smell of these boots then it could kill the scent of anything.  it worked.  it took two applications but it totally got rid of the 'stank foot' thing it had going on.  i'm a believer.

That's impossible bone.  No one can kill animals simply by playing the wind.  Just ask the Drury Brothers, and Lee and Tiffany and......

I can honestly say I am guilty for not stimulating that part of the economy.  I also don't buy alot of handwarmers, battery socks and tree stands either. or lummi locks, stabilizers, etc. LOL

Dude it's all about the scent elemination gum and breath strips. That's the key to success right there.

That's just funny. Maybe Wholesale Sports should start putting Marlboro's on the wall of cover scents. Could be a whole market that Philip Morris is missing out on.
