    Gonehuntin, I've followed your posts for a long while here and generally consider you to be a good authority on the advice you have given. I am very interested in hearing more about Scent Thief and your experience with it. I gave up trying to fool a hog's nose years back... If this stuff is worth a try, I might get some and do some experimenting/testing too.
    I did about 10 hunts with it late November early December for deer and had great success with it on deer but then I got too busy at work and was only able to hunt 1 more time on Christmas Eve. As soon as work slows down some in a couple of months I will be testing it thoroughly on hogs. I will say this, I will be amazed if it continually works on hogs but I'm sold on it for deer. I think it's worth a try for you, I use it heavily on everything that might have my scent on it. Please note that it does have a smell very similar to Vics Vapor rub and is very strong when you first apply it but the really strong smell goes away pretty quickly. I almost forgot, I also had a coyote walk 10 yards directly down wind of me while I was deer hunting and it never even hinted that it smelled me. I couldn't get a shot as I had no shooting lanes directly down wind of me and it walked off without offering a shot.

She winded me and sent her little ones in and she circled me but offered no shot. Of course it was dark and I do have your red LED light, but them little pigs dont fair well in my peep sight at night.

    Scent Thief is looking for dealers so when you start buying it I will get it from you
    My plan is to become a dealer if it is effective on hogs as I will not sell anything that I consider a gimmick. As I said above, I have more testing to do on hogs before I will sell it. I don't expect it to be 100% effective on hogs but if it even works 50% of the time on hogs down wind I would call that effective. Hogs at the places I hunt and have hunted do not put up with any human scent at all unlike some of the places I hunted deer that will walk right through human scent without busting you.

    You might want to look at getting a bigger peep sight if your having trouble seeing piglets with our light, you should be able to see them easily, especially if you have our 38LRX or 30LR bow light.

      I’ve got the 38lrx using the stabilizer mount. If I go with a bigger peep will I lose accuracy? A bigger peep would let more light in.

        Ozone machine for scent elimination.

        I soak my clothes in ozone before every hunt. I use a big tub so my backpack, release, boots, harness and EVERYTHING fits inside it.

        I also sometimes smoke down after the ozone soak. I have only had 1 bust me when I used both ozone and smoke, and that was an 85 degree day.

        Some of those old nanny does, it won’t matter what you use.
        I watched one hit my ground scent (after ozone) 80 yards from my tree. She followed it backwards to where I crossed the fence, smelled all over the H brace I climbed, then followed it almost to bow range on the tree I was in before deciding to circle downwind. She never did bust me (this particular doe loves to stand and blow over and over), but she knew something was up. Had she come within range, I would have shot her just to keep the knowledge ah had just gained from being passed to future fawns.

          Yes sir deer aint as bad as hogs. What them hogs lose in eye sight they sure make up for it with the nose.
          That is a cool story though.

            It's sealed with zippers. There are 4 holes on the top for ventilation but O3 is heavier than air and will stay on the bottom.
