A lot of the scent killer sprays you see on the hunting shows are gimmicks….They work to a degree, but if you smoke, use a scented deodorant, or shampoo, or even dress in camo’s washed in regular detergent you are going to be scented by Deer.You have to realize that these products came out in the last few years, yet Hunters have been successful literally for decades without the use of scent elimination sprays. The shake on powdered carbon is an even bigger joke. Not only does it not work, it makes one heck of a mess on your clothes and skin that’s not easy to get off. I think the best answer is a good “cover” scent put on your boots to mask human odor going into your hunting area…and some more hanging from a cotton ball on a string hung about 4 ft off the ground for the wind/breeze to pick up and carry the direction it’s blowing.I also wash my hunting clothes in scentless Borax laundry soap, air dry them outside, then pack them in a large zip loc bag until I get out to the woods where I change just before the hunt.
As a Gun Shop Owner and Archery/Bowhunter , I get free samples all of the time of these different products to try. I have yet to find ONE that I feel actually worked after watching several Deer to see exactly how they re-act up close. There were 2 occasions last year when I got picked up by 2 Bucks downwind at over 80 yards WITH scent elimination spray..
