DSGB Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Do you wear cologne/perfume during deer season? I have heard someone say, and I don't know if it holds water, that a deer can smell cologne up to five days after you wash it off. What do you think?

buckee Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Re: Deer and cologne? I don't use cologne or hair stuff during hunting season at all. Whether I'm hunting or not. My wife is always happy when I finish the season, because I come out of the bathroom smelling good for a change ...LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSGB Posted December 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Re: Deer and cologne? I don't wear cologne at all during deer season. I wash with scent away soap, etc. I was just wondering if I was going too far. How long after do you think deer can smell it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you think you scored second at the shoot?? The other guys in your group couldn't see through all the tears.... I wear cologne year around...just not on days I plan on hunting. I figure using scent free soap and cover scents will mask what little fumes are still there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NY911Bowhunter Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Re: Deer and cologne? My Grandfather wears Old Spice... He feeds the deer and turkeys..... (shhh - dont tell DEC!) Therfore during Hunting Season - I wear Old Spice! actually I dont! Starting 2 weeks prior to the season, I shower in Robinson Outdoor Scent Shield soap and shampoo and use Scent Sheild deoderant. no stinky stuff ever during hunting season!

Guest deldeer Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Re: Deer and cologne? i do not use anything with any kind of odor.......remember if you can smell it, deer can smell it 100x's better....& never pump gas on your way hunting. i've see guys at the pumps in the morning. guess their not thinking about gas odors.

Stinger-Hunter Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Re: Deer and cologne? I'm pretty strict on scent control. I usually don't wear cologne unless I'm going out on the town, but that is rare these days. I never use cologne within 3 days of hunting no matter what. I had a watch a few years ago with a rubber band and even after I washed it in the washing machine with odor eliminating detergent, it still smelled like Polo cologne.
