Passing Gas
[X(] [X(]
OK Lets face it we have all done it on stand.
The question is does it effect the setup ?
Does it bother the deer? Do they even know what it is?
How do we combat it?
A Scent Loc suit may prevent most of the odor from going into to the surounding air, but some times it is strong enough to go right through the suit.
Maybe a device like the cough silencer may work for the sound but will it contain the odor?

RE: Passing Gas
If it will drive the wife and kids from the room im sure the deer would do the same

I was bowhunting with my dad years ago and we were spaced about 20 yards apart viewing seperate trails. Dad was really bad that morning after 2 cups of coffee and those sausauge and egg breakfast biscuits. A couple of times that morning I would hear him let some rip. I could hear it from 20 yards so I can imagine how far the deer heard it. A couple of hours into the morning a small four point came amblimg down the trail near my stand. I was waiting for a good shot when all of a sudden Dad let out a humongous self made buck grunt. The buck actually started walking in that direction looking all around for the source of the sound. He presented a good shot but I was shaking so bad from laughing that I couldnt draw my bow back. Dad was doing the same and that lucky little buck walked away without a scratch.[]
