I use only deer herd in a stick in all phases of the season. It's the only scent that I've seen deer don't mind it or don't go into alert mode. I've used it here in La and in Missouri and Ohio with the same results. Deer have even followed the trail I walk in on not alarmed downwind cause I put it on my boots. Shot one doe at 7yards. But I'm a scent control nut for taking care of human scent and other scents like fuel or smells from the car. I've been known to get dressed outside when it 20* just to not have camp smell on me. Scent free as possible # 1 all day is the best hunting tactic with the stick and string. These gun hunters don't follow the same rule but when your shooting deer at 200-300 yards I guess they can do what they want. My 2 cents
Used scent one year and it was the worst. Started smoking my clothes since I, and a good bit of my closest neighbors burn wood for heat. They are used to that smell around these parts. You can never get rid of all your scent but, by using scent kill on your boots it gives deer the illusion that you walked through hours earlier. False sense of security. By using scents and mock scrapes I truly believe it hurt more than helped.

radicalxl, I burn wood for heat and keep my hunting clothes an a "scent free" bag. I keep the bag in the basement with the wood stove. Plus I keep my boots close to the stove as well. It smells like wood smoke not human and that is a good thing. I have not had any issues getting winded. When I get made it is because of movement or accidentally smacking something off of my stand when getting ready.
