it looks like we've about come full circle .... back when I started hunting with my grandfather, he often commented to look for where you thought he game would come from and then position yourself to where the wind was in your face .... back then hunting clothing was denim in the form of jeans or coveralls and a plaid shirt .... if you expected to wade through briars or in the rain you wore Duxbak ... nobody made an issue of trying to cover your scent .... the video below pretty much takes me back to those days

Dad thought deer liked the smell of coffee, the cheap stuff from the shell station on our way out of town

I once shot a deer sitting on a stump smoking a cigarette.

The deer was smoking??

He was for a second after that bullet hit him.

Bucks smoke looks hand rolled, is it tobacco or loco weed

I am going with tobacco. He looks too PO for smoking a joint.

Speaking of the scent exceptions, I once shot a deer while I was sitting on a stump smoking a cigar. It was ate in the day, the wind was swirling around and I had just about given up on seeing one. So I lit one up and was half-way done, when two of them walked within 30 yards of me. Maybe they liked the smell!
