Scent control can make all the difference between landing a trophy buck or watching it slip away, and requires diligence, planning, and proper implementation.

Carbon embedded scent control clothing works, but requires periodic reactivation by heating the garments to release any bound odor molecules – something which may prove cumbersome on long backcountry hunts.

Scent-Lok Full Season Taktix

ScentLok pioneered odor-control technology 25 years ago, and this has since evolved into one of the finest men’s and women’s hunting clothing ever created by them. Full Season Taktix jacket and pants offer whitetail hunters access to one of the most advanced odor control systems on the market today.

ScentLok’s Carbon Alloy technology is at the core of Full Season Taktix. This patented process combines activated carbon with zeolite to absorb both human metabolic and bacterial odors as well as sweat, blood, and ambient smells before trapping them until reactivation in a dryer can take place.

The Full Season Taktix features deadly quiet micro tricot outer fabric and micr-fleece inner lining to offer stealth movement while offering toasty warmth. A safety harness opening on the back keeps life-saving equipment within reach, and zipper waist pockets and lower side pockets offer ample storage space – plus sleeves that extend back over wrists provide increased scent control.

Ozone will even deodorize gear both before you hunt as well as after. A real game changer! This scent control technique could become indispensable as part of your arsenal for scent management!

Ozonics Scent Killer

Ozonics utilizes technology that transforms ambient oxygen into scent-eliminating ozone. The unstable molecule bonds to and alters scent molecules, rendering them indecipherable by deer and other game.

The unit should be placed above a hunter while stalking or standing, creating an ozone zone to eliminate any scent that would alert deer of their presence and scare them off.

Ozone-based scent control works differently from cover scents or odor masking products in that it changes the molecular structure of scent molecules so they’re unrecognizable to deer’s keen sense of smell.

Ozone as a way of controlling scent is only short-lived; sweat and other scent-producing materials quickly negate its effect. Therefore, to get maximum effectiveness from using it as an anti-odor method it should be combined with other techniques like carbon clothing or odor-eating sprays. Furthermore, rubberized items like elastic bands or Velcro must not come into direct contact with Ozone; using it near these could damage them over time.
