A thought for dippers

I was pondering about deer hunting while I should be working(much like most of us) and a friend was dipping that new apple skoal. It filled the room with this apple sent. It got me thinking that there are cover scents for everything but your breath. And since apple scent is an attractant for deer, would this work as a coverscent for our nasty breath?

What do you other hunters think about this[?]

    someday somebody is going to capitalize on my idea of acorn flavored chewing gum.

    they like my wintergreen pretty well. i've had numerous deer come in close to check it out. i dont' like the apple stuff tho, and at $4.50 a can, i don't think so.

    Actually...they have breath scent covers out. Saw some last year at Gander Mountain. Haven't looked this year. It was a "pine flavored and scented" chewing gum. Not too sure I would like chewing on a pine flavored piece of gum!

    EDIT...found a link to the stuff I was talking about. Still sounds nasty to me though!

    Yea it must be a southern thing. I get up Brush my teeth. then have a coffee. and head to the woods. I think bad breath is a deer attractant. YOU PEOPLE WATCH TOO MUCH TV. These hunting shows are hunting for suckers and catching them with all tis nonsense.

    ONCE AGAIN I"M NOT BEING SARCASTIC......

    DONT FORGET THE WIND AND JUST HUNT. a deer cant smell ya if the winds not blowing in his face. I have a question WHO FARTS IN THE woods, I'm going to market a fart scilencer with a charcole lineed tube you stick up you * who want's one.[:D][:D][:D][:D]

    I've used my butt to grunt in bucks before, so your product might be counter productive.

    I usually spray my * with scent killer just to tone it down. I'd hate to knock myself out of the stand with the killer budweiser stench.
    This weekend should be a good weekend totest a fart silencer, I will be having beer (in mass quantity) and chili one night, sloppy joes and beer (in mass quantity) another night and a mexican rice dish and beer (in mass quantity) another night. the remaining nights will jsut be beer (in mass quantity)[:D][:D][;)]

    Wow, how topics stray so far so fast.
    1st. they make baking soda based tooth pastes, baking soda is a natural deodorizer, I use that.
    2nd. southern woman chewing on pine straw has been in some of my dreams over the years. [:p] [:D] [;)]
    3rd. Buckey, if you come up with a model that doesn't get "stuck up there" put me down on the order sheet.
    4th. Bang I'm rolling!!!! [:D][:D]

    SO what I get from these replies is that our breath realy isn't as important as most books say. So just brush drink, eat then set out for the kill. Cause if the apple skoal didn't work I was just going to rinse my mouth with some tink's JK

    I wouldn't go that far, maybe just use some doe urine in a spray bottle, kinda like breath freshener. [:D]
    I'm stilling sticking with the baking soda tooth paste though.
