[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 3016359, member: 313"] I hunted black bears with an outfitter that was crazy about scent control. Everyone was careful to shower each evening and all of our clothing was put in an out -building to keep lodge scents away from out hunting clothes. On the way to our stands, we stopped at creeks and walked in the water to remove scent from our boot bottoms. Just before we walked to our stands, the guide would spray us down, head to toe, with scent blocker. I hunted from a high ladder stand that was heavily camouflaged with local vegetation. One evening two mature bears and two cubs came in just after dark. They went to the bait, which was 20yds away. I didn't move or make a sound. Eventually the big sow walked over and climbed my stand to check me out. It's very hard to fool an animal's sense of smell. [/QUOTE]
