None.

I think a lot of boys don't get winded due to thermals keeping scent above a deer's nose and they credit whatever gimmick they happen to be using at the time.

If your scent hits a deer's nose, he will eventually smell you. That is an indisputable fact.

I don't know. Ive had deer come in down wind and never pay it any mind. Ive sat in a stand with 30 deer feeding less than 50 yards dead down wind for hours at a time with no cover scent no scent blocker, window opened wearing the same clothes I hunted in the day before bbq'ed lunch in etc. Sometimes deer spook sometimes they don't.

Bow hunting last year the few times I got to I had 3 deer and a hog come from down wind of me. I was sitting on the ground leaned up next to a tree. The hog stuck around till he got shot. The does all had fawns and fed for about 30 min before they left un spooked.

I try to hunt the wind as best I can and don't worry about the rest.

I agree (again), but also again, THERE ARE things you can do to REDUCE your scent, and you can do it without gimmicks or padding the wallets of the outdoor industry. Because unless you hunt in a different world than I do, deer do actually come in from downwind and not where expected all the time. Good measures can mean the difference between getting a shot or not.

I keep my clothes clean with a scent-free detergent (Sport Wash, $5 a year for me); I store my clothes in the large 10 gallon ziploc bags ($6 per box of 4); use scentless Arm&Hammer deoderant ($1.29 per stick which lasts the season); and I usually dress out in the field before heading to the stand. Those few things ($13 per year, wow, how gimmicky!), and especially hunting the wind, can do more for the average hunter than a whole truck load of Ozonics, Nose Jammer, Deer Dander, and Tinks 69.

None of this will PREVENT you from getting busted, but it may add some time for a shot. To do anything else, you're just adding scent to your repertoire.

Ozonics does work.. We have tested the heck out of it. I was skeptical of it. It works. I am not paid by ozonics to say this either.

Opening that beer is the tricky part

This exactly.

If you can smell someone's breath when they're talking to you, a deer can smell it 30-40 yards away.

It's all about the wind, moisture in the air, etc.

i chew corn in the stand.

and big whoop they cant smell the beer, bud light is 99% water anyway.
