Scent control is very important when hunting. Here are several things that I do to help control my scent so that way I can get closer to bucks:
1) I wash all of my hunting clothes & accessories (gloves, hats, socks, etc) with a scent free, or dirt scented laundry detergent, and use Hunters Specialties "Fresh Earth" dryer sheets.
2) Once I wash & dry my clothes, I don't just hang them up or fold them & put them in a dresser. I have a "scent free" bag that I keep all of them in. I put a couple of scent wafers in the bag & I spray all of the clothes with scent spray before putting them in it. (My favorite scent is Fresh Earth.)
3) I don't like to put all of my camo on until after I get out of the truck on our hunting land. I usually just put on my base layer & take my bag of clothes with me to put on once I am out of the truck. Then I spray myself down with scent-away before heading to my stand.
4) Another thing that is very important, is that YOU are as clean & as scent free as possible. I shower with the scent-away shampoos & soaps, & even use the scent-away body gels, deodorant, toothpaste & mouthwash, & chapstick.
