What is the best scentblocker for deer?

[Alex Williams]

I like Dead Down Wind.

[Alex Williams]

But, in addition to that, nothing is better than having the wind in your face because no matter what kind of scent blocker/cover you have on, if you dont have the wind in your favor and an animal is down wind from you, it will smell you and be gone like a freight train.

nothing can beat go ol' hunting tactics

hunting with the wind in your face.

I have experimented through the years and have concluded that besides huntin' with the wind in your face, that the burning of leaves prior to going afield should be considered.

When I hunt with friends, and stay over night, we have a smoke-out, which is a gathering of all the hunters in camp, and burning a pile of leaves in the middle of the circle, while one of us say a prayer for the hunters and our quarry.

I also do this everytime I go, and have had deer walk by me on the other side of a tree, never winding me.

I also boil cedars branches, filter the water and place it in a spray bottle and spray it where all of my body parts come together.

I have a prescription somewhere for some home made "scent blocker" too.

I am not convinced that any of them work, you can't prove they do and you can't prove they don't, but since you can't prove they do, why waste your money? Keep the wind in your face.

I wear a ScentBlocker suit and then spray down with Scent Killer. I've had deer walk by and right down wind and they didn't know I was there.

The scent killer spray works just spray it on something that smells and take a sniff, but will it keep a deer from smelling your breath? I trust keeping the wind in my favor.

[Beekeeper]

Stay clean (body and clothing) and keep the wind in your favor.

[hjohn429]

Keep the wind in your face. Dead down Wind doe seem to work a little.

[mdhager115]

I use Scent Killer spray. I dont buyu any scent lok clothing just because I can make my clothing scent free by buying a $20 bottle of Scent Killer and spray down my clothes instead of buying a $100+ scent lok jacket or pants. I have had deer walk within ten yards of me without any sign of being spotted. But a lot has to do with the wind direction.

Im surprised that no one has mentioned anything about "silver" being the new "best" scent locking technique.
