I don't agree- by minimizing as much scent as possible, the deer may think I am farther away or was there several hours earlier. If you don't mind shooting deer 200-300 yards away, then don't worry about scent. If you want to get close to a deer- under 50 yards, you better pay darn close attention to scent. I also use fox as a cover scent just hoping a deer smells the fox and it masks my scent. I am almost to carefull with scent- won't wear hunting clothed to breakfast, fuel up car night before and I consistently shoot deer at 20-50 yards both upwind and down wind, in ground blinds and tree stands. I won't let my wife wash my hunting clothes- I need to KNOW they were done the way I want them.
