Put my boots in there with the ozone generator overnight and it took the funk smell off of them.

Stop, the hunting industry is I your head. Just stop. Wash your clothes and go hunting. Use a few fresh broke pine needles to rub your clothes and hunt. Stop wasting money and supporting this shite.

Nah, I bought a knock off 19 dollar ozone generator meant for bathrooms. I didnt throw a couple hundred bucks at ozonics. It may not work at all but it is cheap enough to where I'll still try it. I dont always have the chance to wash my outer layer clothes every night.

tell us all about the many deer you kill wearing buffalo plaid flannel shirts and jeans with your stick and string homeade bow and arrowheads.

Though some stuff is just smoke and mirrors, there are alot of advancements in todays industry you would be a fool not to take advantage of. Scent control is probably the most important.... i know you can use every precaution and still get busted if the wind isnt right. But for some of us, with all the hours and money we put into hunting each yr why not try to get the best advantage while being there

I'm not hunting a box stand, I'm trying to take advantage of whatever I can that doesnt break the bank. I started getting more concerned with scent last year (I always try to hunt the wind as well) and I saw a lot more bucks. Could be other factors but hell, using ozone on my clothes isn't going to hurt. I may be overthinking it but if a deer is 10 yards from me I want to do whatever is within reason to reduce the chances of getting winded. I plan on trying with a recurve this year so I wont be climbing as high as when I use compound or crossbow.

Big differences in bow/ box hunting and terrain. If you hunt a box all the time imo very little is needed. Just hunt the wind and close any cross wind windows. If you’re bow hunting it’s a different story. Deer can come from anywhere and there is nothing to contain your scent. You need those deer much closer.

It also depends on the terrain. Hilly terrain can put Your scent anywhere often swirling. I used to be like everyone else and say it doesn’t really matter until I started bow hunting. I don’t own an ozonics but I do wash my clothes in scent free detergent and I buy clothes that help with scent. I hunt the wind but it’s often swirling in the bottoms I’m hunting.

This also varies drastically from one place to another. Hunting in West Texas it probably makes no difference if all your trying to do is kill a few does. Hunting the pines of Louisiana or Mississippi and it’s a completely different story. Just understand where you are and what it takes. To speak in complete absolutes on this just shows how naive people are. They only speak to their one experience.

Ok hunt the wind blah blah blah.

What if there is no wind and the temp is 90F like it was this past weekend.

Its all about scent control. If there is a chance that Ozone washing your hunting clothes might just give you that one extra chance to take a deer- Why not? I say do it.

Celltech said it worked to take the funk out of his boots. If that’s all it does it is a worthwhile thing. The ozone generators work on funky smells. Thanks for sharing.

That's why I ended up buying. All the guys I know who consistently kill pressured deer or big deer are serious about their scent. I'm talking slick af public land deer.

Boy they are in yalls wallets deep!! I hunt box blinds, ground blinds, tree stands and climbers. I do not bow hunt but thanks for the assumption. All of these scent washes, sprays, deodarants, bags, ozone generators are for hunters not deer!. Its a market driver to make you feel like it COULD be giving you the smallest of advantages. When in reality it just isn't. Sorry I'm the one to tell you. So much money wasted on these products. Stand in some fire smoke, use some vanilla, pine needles, smoke a cig. All will mask as good or BETTER than any shelf product your gonna buy and its free. That is a fact not an opinion.

Wasn't hard to tell

I do 2 out of the 3, masking scent in clothing isnt the same as eliminating it

No, pretty sure it is an opinion. You do you, bub.

The 19 bucks I spent on the ozone generator is way cheaper than a filthy smoking habit.

Attempting to eliminate and then smoking up is better than just smoking up.
