What do you use for your scent control regimen? Why do you use that specific thing? What brand are you using?

I use DDW body products and start washing with them a couple of weeks before I go hunting and continue all season long. I also wash all my hunting clothes with DDW laundry detergent and my non-hunting clothes with All Free & Clear all season as well. I also keep my hunting clothes in rubber mate tubs with lids down in the basement. I spray down when on stand and wear rubber boots and try to not touch anything on my way into my stand. I think that by starting well before I hunt helps to reduce those smells and by keeping my non-hunting clothing as scent free as possible helps improve and reduce my scent profile.

Thanks,

Roger

I have the DDW and Scent Away sprays and DDW Breath spray. That breath spray is nice when you have a scratchy throat and you feel a cough coming on.

People have mentioned spraying or scrubbing rubber boots but I thought the rubber boots remain scent free and connot retain a scent at all? Am I wrong on this? Its one of the main two reasons I keep buying rubber boots.

Yeah I don't think its necessary to ozone them, but I still spray them down and sprinkle some carbon inside them. Stepped in a dog pile once with my rubber boots when walking in. They had a smell

I had to step through a couple ditches a few seasons ago that had runoff manure from my uncles fertilized field. I swear every now and then i still catch a wiff even though I've put countless miles and hunts on those boots since lol
