The Eberhart Experiment

[sclancy27]

30' in a tree doesn't sound like much until you are 30' in a tree. I imagine the higher you go the less chance of getting winded tho

they can smell your breath.

until you put on an oxygen tank with your scent suit that doesn't work anyway you're being fleeced

Why would a 70 year old guy with 60 P&Y bucks from some of the most pressured deer herds in the US want to attribute some of his success to a ridiculous scent suit?

Edit: to add I think it’s more likely than not I’m being fleeced. Maybe the clothing will at least be quiet and useful bowhunting outers

Been Archery and gun hunting whitetail for 35 years.

A story to share:

I used to be a scent free nazi.....I mean strict adherence to procedure kind of guy.

One evening 25 years ago, I put on all of my scent free gear, got on my rubber boots I kept in my tote of leaves behind my garage, I sprayed down, snuck through the woods, walked up a creek 125 yards in 5"of water....I got out of the creek and took 5 steps to my tree. I watched 2 hours later as a mature doe followed my trail. It then walked the creek smelling the water, then got out where I did and followed me right to my tree and looked up at me.

I knew right then, that I was hunting an animal that truly was next level intelligent.
No animal that I have ever hunted in north America compares to a heavily pressured whitetail. None.

You will NEVER beat their nose.

Eberhart.....well.....he spends a LOT of time in a tree. Anyone who does that will have shots eventually. Especially if your are high in a tree in a bedding area (one of his favorite tactics).

What'd you spray on your boots that day? I'll bet i know the answer already.

Carbon or no carbon, the sharpest thing in the world will cut through your pants without making a hole....and still smell.
Maybe incorporate a fasting and colin cleanse before every sit?

The thing about activated carbon is that the actual temp required to regenerate would melt the clothing. An electric dryer simply doesn’t get hot enough to be of any effect. I will say that Scentlok makes some very nice garments though. Scent Blocker did as well.
