Question about masking your scent
vyadha:
Playing the wind is the most important, its so important that I dont mind repeating what has already been said.
I mix my own scent eliminator, 16oz hydrogen peroxide, 16oz water, 2-3 cups baking soda. Let that sit in a bucket for a few days, stirring it up a few times a day.
When it stops foaming add a few drops of colloidal silver and put it in a spray bottle.
It works pretty good, had a spike walk less than 10 yards from me yesterday. That said, the wind was in face and it was drizzling a bit so conditions were great.
That mixture works amazingly when kittens miss the litter box!
Wind wind wind!
mullet:
Distilled turpentine and water, but most important hunt the wind.
Frawg:
I make my own scent killer and play the wind. You can not beat a whitetails nose if they have the wind in their favor period.
Stringman:
I live in an area that has a house on almost every 20 acres. Most of these people burn there own trash so the deer are used to it. When I get ready to hit the woods I start a small fire and add bark or leaves and then let the smoke wash over and through my hunting clothes. My wife doesn't care for the smell but the deer act completely oblivious to my presence. I usually shower before getting smoked, but don't do anything else. I guess this method would depend heavily on your environment.

we take sage, pine needles or whatever is local and put it in a bag with our huntin clothes, smoke from the fire and no food on the hunt
