Whitetail Deer
Q:Being new to deer hunting I have read all kinds of articles and listened to other hunters. One thing that puzzles me is the big emphasis on scent. Yet, me with my decreased sense of smell, gun oil is very strong. So what good is scent free clothing, chewing gum, deordorant, etc when gun oil smells so strongly? Should I not oil my guns before going hunting (bolt action) since I will only be shooting (hopefully) one or at the most two shots?
