[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1637729, member: 2736"] Most animals make their living with there nose and can be amazing at separating odors. they learn quick which ones mean harm to them. I have had deer seven hundred + yards away spook and run using sent blockers. And turn around and have deer less than 10 yards up wind that didn't know that I even existed. I have also had deer and Elk spook from the different smell of something that they were unfamiliar with. I still believe that hunting into the wind is less risky and more productive. every bow hunter knows what movement can also do especially if you live on the gulf coast because of the mosquito's. for years I wouldn't use mosquito spray for fear of them smelling me. so I would just set there and let them eat on me. when I started hunting the wind, I could spray myself and not have to endure the pain. I also saw and harvested more animals. If it makes you feel better, use the sent blockers but still hunt the wind. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
