    I use scent away because I saw a study from years ago that says it works best, we all have opinions but going thru the process with any product is better than not. I use ozone to treat my clothing on top of any spray or product.

    I go the opposite route. I carry scent killer wipes for my hands and face but I smoke all my gear.

    I have always used dead down wind, but I think I will give it uup this year, I can smell the stuff on my clothes after I wash them in the detergent, and if I can smell it, the deer sure can. I will probably just stick to washing them in water and hanging them outside for a week or so.

    Dont put to much of your green into the stuff, there are other gimmicks to fall for that actually work!

    Wash my clothes in baking soda and buy whatever is on sale for scent spray. I've used DDW, Scent Killer, Scent away, and probably others.

    I never did a study but if I'd have to choose, I'd say wind direction works best.
