You can fool a deers eyes & ears, but you can't fool the nose if he is downwind. I always hunt the wind.

I hunt the wind as much as possible, use baking soda in both the wash and rinse, and I also use Deer Danderâ„¢ cover scent.

scent killer detergent, shampoo, soap and deoderant. Hunt the wind if at all possible.

What we can't select more than one?..I hun the wind first and foremost, then I use my Scentblocker w/ scent away spray, scrub boots with baking soda/water and brush every so often, bag all my stuff in scent proof bags, never let boots come inside the house, in vehicles or on foriegn ground I'm not hunting...I do use fresh Earth wafers sometimes and also use fresh deeer urine I take from other deer harvested throughout the season to make scent trails and/ or cover scent....

sorry rr this is my first poll and didnt notice you couldnt select more than one. last year i had 3 different shooter bucks (130 to 140) directly downwind of me and they didnt have a clue that i was there. they came in to the code blue esterus scent i had hanging on a low lying branch. i also smoke and dip at times in the stand and have had to put down a cigarette to shoot, even with the deer being downwind didnt seem to bother them

hunt the wind- Everytime it is possible
scent suits and sprays-I spray my gear, and inside of my vehicle down with scent killers before hunting. I also shower with scent killing products before every hunt.
natrual scents (dirt cedar etc)-I keep my clothes in a tub with a healthy dose of fresh earth
cover scents (doe racoon or other animal)-I spray coon urine on my boots, and a few squirts up in the tree when I get there
just hunt
My stands are only ten foot ladder stands, and I have RARELY been busted by my scent!

I hunt the wind whenever possible. If the wind is wrong then I'll look the other way and hope they come from that direction ;D I have other stuff I'd rather buy than wasting my money on scent control clothing I wash my clothing constantly in PUREX fragrance free laundry detergent then place my dried clothing in totes. I just use regular Ivory brand soap when showering before the hunt. I have used Deer Dander when I've found it available locally.
