I have smoked while hunting in the past...never witnessed a deer getting spooked by the smell. However, this year I have quit and I'll let you know at the end of the season. Maybe I will have to start smoking again!!!

I think all these stories about smoking in the stand and seeing deer should answer any questions about scentlok clothing. It's a matter of keeping the smoke/smell out of the bucks' nose. I doubt many of the deer seen while smoking were downwind.

I personally do not do it in the stand. My best friend on the other hand, does it everytime he sits in his stand. He has alot more wall hangers than I do, but I am a firm believer in scent control and I am not willing to take the chance. He does it, and he's successful. I however am not that lucky, I have to use everything to my advantage. My .02
We must know the same guy... he spits down the tree and has shot some really impressive bucks both here in PA and in MD while doing so. Go figure.
