I do have the maid (read wife) wash my hunting stuff in some kind of no scent soap just to keep the UV away. As far as being scent free...I tried that, and keeping your clothes in special bags, changing in the field, swapping clothes when you sweat, spraying yourself down with scent killer, etc.. Well, it got to be too much hassle, so I quit it. I don't know if it helped or hurt as I am NOT whatcha call a great hunter. I just have fun.

I shower and wash my clothes in scent away detergent and keep them in a tote container in my car. When going to the woods I only wear jogging shorts or pants and a t-shirt. after parking I change into hunting clothes and rubber bottom boots. I wear different shoes driving to and from my hunting area, never know when you have to get gas or something. I don't risk anything.
Before entering the woods I spray down wih scent eliminator and then always check my wind.
It may or may not help, but I still take very precaution I can to be successful. I don't believe you can completely eliminate your scent but you it doesn't hurt to take a few extra steps to try.

I try and stay as fresh as I can without going through extremes. I'm not going to the woods in my underwear - then unpack and change into something warmer, grin. I always hunt the wind in my favor, BUT - it don't always work out the way I planned it either.  :wink: 

OH - I'm not on anyones Pro Staff anymore so I really can't tell you if it helps or not ...  :nono:
