Ozonics?

[springermnguy26]

Has anyone ever used one of these things?

[muskiemanAD]

My Buddy uses them. He sais they work. However I used to be into scent cintrol . Shower, keep cloths in tote change boots and gargle baking soda. If there downwind they are going to bust you. I just wear whatever and play the wind the best I can.

I've seen some video of them doing amazing things but we are talking prime land in Iowa here, I'm not sure you would have the same results on high pressure public land. I guess if you are all in on scent control and think this will push it over the top and you have the $$$ laying around go for it.

Play the wind. That's the best way. Ozonics, sprays, scent block, etc......we all want to believe they work. But the reality is someone is making lots of money on these products and anyone who hunts a lot knows they don't always work. Some will disagree but that's my thoughts. ..

The only bad thing that I have heard about these is: the noise of the fan. It sounds like if hunting in a blind the fan doesn't need to be as high to circulate the air than being in a hang on / ladder stand.

Scam. Have a couple of stands for varying wind directions. Put a little fox urine on your boots for the walk in and you're good to go!

I personally wouldn't want one anywhere near where I breathe. We had a home ozone generator years back. Any plant sitting next to it had it's leaves all burned to a crisp.

You can google ozone and find out details of what it can do to your lungs. Not good.

Way too many gadgets in the field these days. What ever happened to good old fasioned woodsmanship? Do young people even know what that means any more?

Put out your scents and food blocks to lure them in. Call them to you with the latest and greatest. Hunt "dead down wind". All quick easy fixes instead of learning how to actually "hunt". Me? Not impressed...

Don't forget trail cameras!

Exactly! You don't have to know what sign even looks like anymore, much less be able interpret what it means. Just look at the pics to see what's coming past here and when.

"Whatever happened to good ol Woodsmanship?"

But you see, Don, you're smarter than the average bear. You have it looking like you saw Stick coming before he even knew he was gonna be there.

I've smelled overdone ozone and it makes me gag. I have to admit, it would be awesome to be undetectable to a deer's nose but I just don't know if that'll ever happen. Last weekend I went out in the morning freshly wiped, deodorized, tooth pasted, sprayed, yada yada yada, and still got scent busted. I didn't even realize the draft was going that way until I heard the snorts. I got out my handy wind checker and it confirmed what the deer already told me...

This is why I've been going smelly since 2010 and loving every minute of it, just been busted too many times to go through the hassel any more. Just me against the deer, if my setup isn't perfect they win.

Well the "new" thing under trial for us right now is smoking the clothes for cover scent. I know it's been talked about in the past but it's just been hard to wrap my mind around it.

My buddys were wall tent camping for deer hunting last year and had a wood stove malfunction that smoked em outta the tent. Well one of em doesn't scent free anything so all his stuff got it good. He claimed he had deer down wind of him several times and they didn't spook. Other buddy who's been the biggest scent freak I've known smoked his clothes before hunting this year and claims he had a couple down wind that didn't mind him.

After going through the pains of scent elimination and still getting busted, I'm about to become another tester.

I'm reorganizing and packing for this weekend and am pulling out clothes from ziplock bags that have been there since the scent free wash they had. I'm sniffing as I'm going and just realized these clothes smell like ozone! What a coincidence!

I was just asking on here last week if anyone here had been trying that. I have been reading alot about the that. I would really like to know what you guys conclude. I am on the verge of trying it myself. Good luck!

I play the wind and get high in my stands. Control scent as well as you can and you should be golden.

Yes, I get busted from time to time but all these gimmicks are what they are, gimmicks.

On TV they sound great but they are paid to push the sponsor product.

[MUSKY18]

I have a buddy whose hunting party lives by smoking their clothes. Only scent cover they use and they swear by it. I use scent killer, but as I get better at my hunting, I use the wind and stand locations more than scent control. Like to thik as scent killer as a "bonus" to what I am already doing to win the battle.

[ClownColor]

$400? Ha ha... Please tell me you bought one. It'll be money "well" spent!

[Iceboy]

Picked up one of these to keep in my Heater Body Suit - we'll see how it works. I'm not paying $400 for a contraption with a fan that I have to haul everywhere, that is for sure. This seems like a good compromise.
