I use the toothpaste breath spray they seem to work well, I actually use them all year long, I love dead down wind's products they are great
It's all up to the person i just got it to make sure but baking soda will work amazing i just hate the taste of it lol.
The way I figure it if a buck can smell my tooth paste .... I am screwed way before that point . Scent control more then most topics tends to be devoid of common sense quite a bit.
Scent free contact solution my be pushing it but I disagree about breath. Deer can likely smell your breath long before they can smell clean clothing and a clean bathed and likely sprayed down hunter. Breath would be the proverbial weak link remaining. A deer comes in down wind and your breath stinks then it won't matter how clean or neutral the rest of you and your equipment are...you're probably going to get busted.
I feel bad I don't brush my teeth in the mornign I do it the night before. I feel bad for the people I go buy my coffee from (yes i drink coffee before I get to the woods.) I have not yet to my knowladge had a problem with the coffee. I should probley start brushing my teeth. I want to check out this dead down wind toothpaste. I should drink my coffee firts and brush my teeth affter.
"Bad breath" doesn't only come from ones mouth. It comes from our lungs too-unless you happen to live in a totally pollution free world........worked on a foundry for 17 years-horrible smelling place. I did quite well hunting. If we are talking about eliminating breath odor, I think we have reached the point of diminishing returns. Brush your teeth, chew gum whatever it takes to keep your significant other happy and go kill your deer.
I use the sportsman's edge breath gum, just ordered two packs should get me through 24 hunts and I like it. Maybe it helps, maybe not...but I have more confidence with it so that's what I'll stick to. Every little advantage helps when chasing big old bucks.
I heard that spearmint actually atracts deer and if you brush your teeth with quality spearmint tasting tooth paste you shouldnt have any problems.
i use it and like it but im not atrributing my deer kills to it. more of a mental thing for me. but i love there breath spray
