I don't follow his regimen 100% - it's way too much for me, but I have found a level I can live with, and is producing good results. I don't follow any special practices with my vehicle - the dog and wife regularly ride with me during hunting season. I refuse to do any special shaving for hunting season, or change my diet. I handle my sticks and platform with my bare hands.
I do wear ScentLok clothing. I do shower in unscented soap. My boots are never worn in the truck.
There are some things I do that Eberhart does not - I spray my sticks with one of the various scent eliminators (usually whatever is on sale), and I do use a cover scent (usually Code Blue Calming Zone). I transport my backpack and everything inside in a sealed tub with a small ozone generator running. (I do not treat my saddle or any straps or ropes that will support my life)
I have had deer cross my entry path - this happens a lot, since both deer and I like to take the easiest path to travel. I have had a deer spot me in my tree and circle downwind to try and catch my scent without spooking. I have had deer directly below my tree, sniffing my bottom stick. I often have deer hanging out downwind for long periods of time.
I doubt these things would happen while using no scent control practices.
