I appologize in advance to the owners of this site. I have never encouraged anyone to visit another site. But I think is something you need to read. Go to http://www.bowsite.com. Click on the big game forum and then click on the Camouflage clothing-the next lawsuit. I would cut and paste but that would be copyright infringement.
If this is bad act on my part,please delete.

Re: the Scent Lok lawsuit:
I spent some $$ on this stuff a few year's back. Used it for a season or two. Never believed it would eliminate scent entirely, but thought it might help some. I really never reached a conclusion one way or another, but I haven't worn one of their products in a long time.
I hate to see lawsuit after lawsuit. In some cases, though, I can't argue that it's warranted. Lots of information all over the internet on this one, and it's hard to judge who all has an ax to grind. If even half the statements regarding Scent Lok, Cabaela's, etc. trying to cover up product issues are accurate, though, these folks deserve whatever's coming to them.

Sounds like a Banner for PETA......surely no hunter would ever "forget" the wind and just hunt.
I ALWAYS check wind direction before going hunting and set up accordingly.....
Only when it is light and variable do i consider such a thing.
They lost me when they said "Forget the wind, just hunt!"

This isn't the first lawsuit against carbon clothing companies. One case I read, the plaintiff brought in some scientist and actually proved activated carbon could not be regenerated in a household dryer. The temperature needed was astronomical. Needless to say, this lawsuit was kept very low key. I did some studying on activated carbon when all this stuff first came out. Trust me, it doesn't work.

Back when I was researching all that T.R. Michels anti-carbon stuff (Lawsuit Info.) for magazine articles, I told a buddy about it, and he got pissy because he had spent so much $$$ on Scent Lok. Supposedly, he contacted whomever and joined in the lawsuit as a plaintiff. I'm going to ask him where it all stands.
After reading many hours of info., I'm pretty sure the present carbon technology as it relates to hunting apparel is a complete fraud. On the other hand, I'm not so sure T.R. Michels is playing with a full deck either.

When are people (hunters) going to understand, that you can't
eliminate human scent. If you are exhaling human scented
molucules out of your lungs, you are busted, if the wind ain't
right.
I guess that applies to most hunters that are "human". Even
predator wild animals know to play the wind, before they even
think about making a stalk.

I have noticed a decrease in windings from dee wearing my scent blocker...But I think it could be mostly cause I keep it so scent free, not cause it is blocking my scent...I think if i took any outer layer of close and put them through the ringer I make my scent blocker suit go through, I would become just as "invisable"

I know T.R. pretty well. He is completely nuts. He speaks in tongues- literally. He is also not a very good shot. He put a 12 gauge in his mouth pulled the trigger and couldn't kill himself. he is aligned with that other scent company from MN who are pretty nice guys.
However, that doesn't mean the lawsuit is not valid.
You should read some of T.R.' research material on deer, turkey and elk. He could teach BSK a thing or two if BSK could understan what he said.

This thing is going to get nasty before its over. They have been dragging it out for years but it will soon come to a head. They have pretty much proven without a doubt that the stuff cant be regenerated and it will be the end all for some.

In this economy it'll probably be settled thru the bankrupcy courts and any or all the settlements will not be worth the paper there written on...as usuall, the lawyers will win and go to lunch togeather...

If the stuff doesn't work as claimed. If the company knew it was a fraud. And if thousands of people bought it because of the claim...what is the correct course of action?
I'm not for lawsuits at all. I think tort reform is possibly the best thing that could happen to this nation.
But sounds like this may be the exception, or what lawsuits are actually intended for. If I could have afforded it...I'd have some in my closet too!

It's also true.
I think what this is going to do is change a lot of advertising. It is also going cost a lot of money, maybe even bankrupt some companies. This is not a frivolous lawsuit. The attornies are serious and of course, will be the only ones making any money. But it will make companies think before they claim something. If you say your urine product will attract big bucks...prove it. Let's take it to Cheatham and try it for 15 days.

I agree, but I also think common sense on the part of the consumer goes a long way. I try to research every new gadget or idea that interests me. We have a wealth of knowledge at our finger tips, the internet. I knew after just a few minutes of researching that the scent free carbon thing was absurd and guess what? They haven't gotten a dime of my money. I have learned the hard way, 10 minutes on the computer can save you a lot of money.

Any product that says it can eliminate your human scent, is
bogus. If anyone buys into that claim, they are not woods
educated. On the other hand, I guess some people are educated
enough, to try and make some money off a law suit.
Ain't today's society.........SCREWED UP! Claims are made trying
to make money, when they should know better the whole time, that
that product...............sucked all along.
