Can I get a translator on aisle 5?
Here's why I say it's about the money.
Man goes hunting in full SL regalia. He gets busted. The suit is BUNK.
Man goes hunting in non SL regalia. HeSTILL gets busted (why WOULDN'T he?).
He spent $400 on the SL suit.
He spent $200 on the non SL suit.
In his mind....he wasted $200.
Now tell me what it's really about.
It won't only be the guy using it that will have to prove it's working.

Consumers are Federally Protected from deceptive advertising. I believe the company will soon have to prove that the advertisements used in selling their products are true and do what the company claims they do.You stated the guys who use the products are the one's who seem to have to prove they work. Istated that the company will also have to prove that the products work as advertised.

How do you know who's used it and who hasn't? I've used it and used it correctly. I went over board with everything with the suits, sprays, etc. One year out west elk hunting I got winded every time I was around elk. That was enough for me to call it quits with it, I saved a bunch of money not buying it anymore. Big deal if some people don't like it. My brother swears by the stuff, I don't and we get along just fine. No arguing between us. He don't get defensive and make snide remarks that your nuts for not doing everything possible to control your scent. Thats what ticks people off who don't use it when people say that.

We can sum this up very easy.
If you don't believe in Scent LokDON'T BUY IT.
BUT to those people, where do you come up with your reasoning. Are you all carbon experts? To come on here and say its junk or its stupid to use it is meaningless, keep it to yourself.
I know 3 things about SL:
1. I know it can't hurt.
2. It's excellent camo
3. Whatever % it does help is better than 0%.
I own roughly 10 different SL suites based off of temp. and where I'm hunting. I shower every time I hunt, spray down and all clothing stay in Scent Lock bags and don't get put on until I get to where I'm hunting. BUT I ALWAYS PLAY THE WIND.

Does it cover 100% of your scent? No. But I sure as heck know that wearing it doesn't hurt me and I do believe to some degree it may help me in a crucial situation.
Second, were you running and gunning for the elk? If you were it is almost impossible not to sweat and elk almost always go into the wind and scent lok isn't going to stop all the smell from the sweat.

Personally, I do condemn false advertising in general as I hope you also do.

When I see the Chevy commercials that tout that they're "Like a Rock"....I use a little common sense and figure they're not made of shale or granite.

Now you tell me.
Does this mean that Geico really isn't so easy a caveman could do it?
