Hook him up blackheart.

He hasn't been able to get it up in years. He should try hookin up with BobBrown. Word around the truck stops is that faag can suck the chrome off a trailer hitch and only charges a quarter.

You ask about dudes at truck stops?

Three quarters of all your posts are nothing but snarky, smart assed, condescending remarks. Obviously a desperate attempt at projecting an image of intellectual superiority while in reality everybody, including you, knows you're just a pathetic loser.

I am pretty sure hillestadj is being facetious.

The point of making this post is to say:
1) The Shamanic Baking Soda Method is not Infallible or sure-fire
2) It has limits
3) Results vary-- especially if you don't follow the process

Saturday was the KY Muzzleloader Opener. It rained all night and cleared out just before we went out to our blinds. The wind started gusting in the morning and it was going full-on for the afternoon. I had a chilly 5-10 mph wind down the back of my neck when I went out to the tower blind. None of us were really worried about shooting anything. For us, ML season is just a dry run for the big show in November. I'm the first to say that I wasn't really trying.

I have a bunch of details about how and why the Baking Soda Method failed here:

The bottom line is that due to the dropping temperatures and the rising wind, I did nothing from 10 AM when I came in until 4 PM when I went back out to reduce the stink. I left all my hunting duds on, I even added some untreated layers to deal with the cold wind. I ate my lunch in my hunting duds. I was around cigarette smokers. I wasn't serious about the baking soda thing, and I ended up seeing the result.

Someone is going to argue that the exceptions don't prove the rule. Look, all I know is that with 10 MPH winds blowing straight at my back, I would have kind of half-expected the deer to notice me at some point. However, I would have not expected them to wind me at 200 yards and run off. I've sat in that tower blind for 4 seasons, and done so with all manner of wind. I have been busted, but it has always been from things other than smell. Normally, they cue on my orange-clad head bobbing around as I shift to get a bead on them. As long as I don't move, even with unfavorable wind conditions, the scent level would be low enough for them to get within 50 yards or so before becoming aware. I've even had them walk up to the blind, walk around the tower and finally stand at the base of the ladder to catch me.

It's obviously the most magical 200 acres on earth.

Hook him up blackheart.

not into under age filipino boys like blackie.

I'll pass

let's discuss the ozone machine or HECS, the invisible man hunter. Both proven technology

By chance did you error and use gluten free baking soda?

Wish I could help, but a suggestion…I’ve had them almost come into the blind….wind swirling…with my Dog in there with me.

How do you get your dog to stand still for the baking soda treatment?

One season my buddy put a kerosene heater in the back of the truck with all our gear including duffels with our hunting clothes. The damn thing leaked and all our stuff smelled like diesel.

So I chewed some Wrigley's spearmint to cover the diesel smell, and it worked. I killed a nice buck, he never smelled me. Had to be the Wrigley's.

shaman, god bless ya - I've never seen anyone commit to sharing more profundity on how to shoot 1.5 y/o deer.
