Title: Ozonics
Post by: haulinbass on July 24, 2014, 09:45:41 PM: Has anybody had any experience with these? If so please share. I got a great spot for elk but the thermals kill me.

Hunter's were saying the Ozonics seemed to be working and the animals were getting in close, but spooking because of the fan noise. I also heard they fixed the noise issue, but I :dunno:. Pretty pricey, but if they work, at least for me it's worth the $400.

Post by: trophyhunt on July 27, 2014, 11:03:39 AM: I like those wafers too, it's amazing how strong they smell. I used to buy the scent loc, and the sprays. I don't believe anything completly eliminates our scent but the cover up might give us that extra second to make the kill.

Post by: LEN on July 28, 2014, 08:25:17 AM: Stop breathing and you get rid of 90% of scent. Have seen a hunter cross up wind of a herd of elk 3/4 mile(no other way to get there from here) with using the soap, scent and scent killing clothing and still have the elk lookup and move into the timber as the wind reached them. Humans stink to animals no way around it. JMO
