I wash all my hunting clothes in baking soda. I shower with dirt scented soap I take a daily chlorophyll tablet (helps reduce body odors like breath, gas, sweat). I carry my boots in back of truck till I reach my hunting area. I use a homemade scent killer spray. I avoid strong odors once I am dressed to go hunt (dog, wife's perfume, gas station, resturaunts, etc). I avoid foods that tend to make me gassy.

I don't do any of that..besides keep the dogs away from me when I'm dressed to go hunting..I pile my hunting clothes up in the corner of the bedroom..(wife hates it)
when something gets bloody or smeeling funky I just rinse with hot water or let it get rained on...
I do use alot of cover scents and attractants once I get into the woods though

Last time my hunting clothes were washed was right after I bought em. Only thing I wash is the shirts I wear other than to hunt in.

I might play the wind, but that's about it. If it's warm enough, I'll set up with the wind in my favor. But if it's cold and windy, I'm in the blind and I'll take my chances.
Other than that I don't have any special routine. It may have cost me a big buck somewhere along the line but I never knew it.

I keep all my hunting clothes in a bin with a dirt scented wafer. My boots I just leave out on top of the box because they are usually so muddy. Once I get outside after I am dress I spray myself down with dirt coverscent, from head to toe.

making things real hard for yourselves.build a fire before you go in the woods and smoke yourself.does not have to be a big one. i just take some leaves and pine needles if you want and light it and let smoke come around you.its that simple and it works better than those sprays and that stuff.i caught on to this 25 years ago when i started shooting bears when i was getting warm near a fire.i said,commanc, ahhhhhhhh.

up until this year i used to no scent everything...my clothes,my bedsheets,my truck seats,etc. i'd spray it all down with no scent or i'd rub dog fennel all over everything. this year i just do me,my clothes,and throw a plastic bag over my seat in my truck.
