hunting with dirty clothes, no scent blockers, no problem

I’ve been hunting for years, and honestly, I don’t stress much about scent control. I’ve tagged deer in blue jeans, work boots, and a flannel shirt still stained from the last kill—coffee in hand, Marlboro lit. I don’t use scent blockers, special soaps, or fancy gear. Heck, I’ve had deer walk right into my ground blind while I was sitting still. Out here in the middle of nowhere, I swear movement and pressure matter more than scent. Anyone else ditched all the scent-control hype and still get results? #hunting #deerhunting #huntingtips #outdoors

all the scent blockers that's is being promoted, is only gimmicks for money. I have hunted for more than 50yrs, I smoked, I never found any of that stuff made any difference.

Never used scent blockers and always had success, even when smoking. I have had deer almost right up to me by just still, even had a chipmuck run right up the front of my shirt and just sit as if I were a tree.

Found only one that actually works. Dead down wind. Was in a stand with a doe looking up at me sniffing and licking mouth. Didn’t look her in the eye cuz then they know you’re real. She just milled around for a half hour. If they can’t smell you they don’t think you are real
