Does Scent Lok really work or is it a bunch of BS? |
I don't see how the charcoal can be recharged in my dryer, it just can't get it hot enough. Am I just overpaying for a camo garmet the I can get for half the price and keep in a rubbermaid container with a scent wafer? I think it works, but I think that the reactivation of the charcoal may be on the shady side. Perhaps the charcoal they use is a different blend but I thought that charcoal had to be reactivated at much higher temps than a dryer can produce. I think that blind selection according to natural terrain and wind direction are much more effective than Scent-Lok. My dad swears by it. I've been just as close to Whitetails without wearing it and have not been scented. I keep my garmets stored with a small amount of dried twigs and dirt. I don't know about it being TOTAL BS but almost.It's not cost effective and as the ad states and most people miss "It works on 99% of REPLICATED human odor" That means it's tested in a university research lab for "man made" body odor.What about smoke and gas fumes? Cigarette smoke? You already answered your own question.....Buy a regular set of camo, wash it in a very mild soap..air dry it by hanging it out to dry and then store it in a snap lid container with/or without a scent wafer. Don't put your camo on until you are out in the field to minimize any corrupt non natural odors. I pack mine in a snap lid container and instead of a scent wafer ,I put a few cotton balls litely moistened with cover scent or buck lure in a quart size zip lock bag with a few small holes stuck in it and put it facing away (slits/holes) from my suit in the container so the camo doesn't wick or absorb the scent directly into the camo cloth.This works great for me for 20+ years of archery hunting.My average shot distance has been 15 yards or less.... Personal hunting experience 20+ years The only way to hide your scent completely is to stay down wind. Old school, but it is the most effective. I never needed it to get the deer I hunted*... I don't see the justification for needing it if I don't need it*... i dont think its worth the money if u sweat very munch just climb higher don't bother with scent lok. people say it really works. trust me, i know from experience it doesn't work enough to pay the extra money. live in western PA, and damn proud of it <((((>< |
