ScentBlocker’s “Secrets of the Pros” Segment 3

Robinson Outdoors has released an entertaining and informative annual DVD series called “Secrets of the Pros.” The lessons taught are timeless in regards to a strategic scent control plan. This blog series is going to detail the lessons taught in particular segments, provide a link for online viewing, and challenge the reader to continue to strive for a more strict scent control regimen.

Secrets of the Pros Segment 3

This nine-minute segment is full of helpful information and a bit of heart-pumping action as well. Scott Shultz begins by teaching about the power of activated carbon clothing. Learn about “ adsorption,” and how carbon technology works. The chemical “elcerine” is introduced to help understand why men’s hands can become almost toxic in the deer woods. Scott goes on to discuss alarm odors released from ears, hair, and other unsuspecting parts of the human body. See why rubber boots aren’t a surefire way to eliminate the possibility of leaving a scent trail.

Also join Dave Reisner on a warm autumn day in the “Skinny Pinch” as he hunts for a monster whitetail directly downwind! Dave’s hunt solidified his belief in ScentBlocker clothing.

It’s important to remember, no matter how much effort is frontloaded into scent control, hunters will always sweat and a disciplined regimen will not be complete without activated carbon clothing. This is an episode that a dedicated hunter cannot afford to miss!

It sounds obvious, but behind the scenes of every technical product at Robinson Outdoor Products LLC is a history of exhaustive use, abuse and in lab testing. We start with an idea, a need, and then seek out the finest fabrics, materials and formulas and start exploring design solutions to meet the need. Our advanced product lab tests materials, compatibility, performance levels and effectiveness scores with crucial data, but the final step is most crucial. We head into the field, because real world hunting needs can’t be solved in the lab alone. Such full-on testing often exposes details that might otherwise be overlooked. For example, designing hood or headcovers on a mannequin in the office is one thing. Until you climb up a high placed treestand and pull it over your head and try to draw a bow and shoot that you realize your vision and draw is compromised when that chance of a lifetime walks out. From this in-depth field-testing we have developed some of the most unique details and benefits that go into our products. Offset main zippers for clean shooting, diamond crotch gusset for a resistant free climb into a treestand, Silent Wrist Ratchet Body Lock for on stand adjustment, Gearpendent Technology for minimal movement while reaching for gear, Zip-off removable arm guard for non-restrictive shooting, tree harness slit for integrated attachment, perfect fit, function and the list goes on. Honestly, it's an evolution of understanding more than anything else. It's years of experience and many days, weeks and months of sitting in the tree stand, on the stalk, in the bottomlands, on top of the mountains shivering, sweating and soggy moments figuring out what something really does and why and what we can do to make it hunt better.
