Thinking of getting one, Even if it takes away half your scent like you say it could make the difference, I watched all the u-tube video's on it but one never knows, If it works like you say it could make or break a sucsess on a monster. But it may increase the harvest rate with bow hunters on BIG Whitetails then they may go on draw too like mulies

Hey guys, I was skeptical until I used one this spring. As u all know a Bears #1 defense is his nose and I tell u what I am a believer now!
You should look at it like an insurance policy for when u have a swirling or fickle wind. I know from experience this spring that when they get a snout full of your scent stream, with the Ozonics running, they can sometimes detect something but they don't associate it with a human and they soon relax. In my opinion the ozone smells like static electricity, the same naturally occuring smell that you can detect after a good lightning storm..that fresh smell. Again, I think one still needs to practice good hunting fundamentals as you should always do but like I said, when those fickle winds come it can save all that hard work you have invested getting in range of that trophy of a lifetime.

I think i will try one, Its like you said, You still go in a scent free as possible but when that swirling wind comes up something like this could save your hunt. I am exspecially excited to try this at the bear bait.

Been using the Ozonics now for two seasons, won't leave home with-out.. If you do purchase one, a spare battery is a good idea.
