You definitely want to still use scent and UV killer detergents but you can't totally fool a deer's nose with scent free detergents. Plus, if you're anything like me, a 300, 400, 500, 800 yard walk with a 23 pound climber and other gear, with various layers of clothing, you're sweating like a pig anyway.

I really think the smoke works. There's a ton of people on ArcheryTalk that do it, which is where I learned it, and there are few if any negative comments.
