When it comes to hunting we all have our favorite go-to clothing. Maybe it’s lucky; maybe you’re on a budget, or maybe its just super comfortable and functional. Regardless of what you wear it’s extremely important to remember how helpful keeping your scent to a minimum can be. Whitetails have an incredible sense of smell and a big mature deer will not generally tolerate human odor. The good news is you can do something about it and it won’t break the bank. You can make your own scent-elimination suit by following a couple easy steps using Scent Killer Gold with Hunt Dry Technology. 

First, wash all your hunting clothing in Scent Killer Gold Laundry Detergent. This ultra concentrated odor fighting detergent will not only remove dirt and stains but also take your scent elimination to an extreme level. It’s made with no UV brighteners, which are also very important, and something many other detergents include. The last thing you need to be is super bright and stand out in the woods to deer thanks to brighteners. Once washed, dry your clothes either on a line or in the dryer. 

After your clothing is fully dry, spray every inch of it down with Scent Killer Gold with Hunt Dry Technology. This works both wet and dry and is 99% effective at stopping replicated human odor in testing at Rutgers University, and the best part is it works 20 days after drying. The reason that is so important is for those super cold mornings where you may not want to completely spray down and get your clothing soaked for fear of freezing, or maybe you woke up too late and are simply short on time. With this Hunt Dry technology you can spray down ahead of time, store your completely dried gear in a tote and be ready when it’s time to hit the woods.

Another important reminder is to spray down your boots, release, and backpack along with any accessories you bring into the field and even your ground blind and chair to ensure the very best results. There is no way to know exactly how many deer spook off from your scent before you ever see or hear them, so by taking every precaution possible you’re really increasing your odds of success. Scent elimination is important for not only sitting on stand, spraying down your decoy, but also walking in and out of your stand and of course scouting and checking trail cameras too!

So much of deer hunting is about preparation and time on stand but you want to ensure you’re spending quality time in the woods and keeping your scent to a minimum.
