andrewmilich Report post Posted November 19, 2020 so I was watching outdoor channel and they keep advertising HECS clothing. They say some mumbo jumbo about magnetic fields and animals..wasnt really paying much attention. So I thought I would throw the topic out here to see what you all think about it. Anyone use it? I mean I have had animals within 10 yards and I was wearing jeans... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rossislider Report post Posted November 19, 2020 It is total BS and one of the biggest loads of malarkey to hit the hunting industry in the past 100 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CatfishKev Report post Posted November 19, 2020 This came up a few years ago, probably a gimmick. When it first came out I could have sworn the body suit was like $800, looks a lot cheaper now. It's still cheaper then Kuiu, give it a try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lefty Report post Posted November 19, 2020 I got one of the suits for my birthday a couple years ago but haven't tried it out yet if I remember I'll wear it on my archery pig hunt in January 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trphyhntr Report post Posted November 19, 2020 To be fair about all this. I’m pretty sure these are marketed mainly to eastern hunters (stand sitters) I really don’t think there’s anything wrong with doing everything possible to cover your scent when sitting.

deerslayer23 Report post Posted November 20, 2020 On that elk hunt I went on in September the person I was accompanying wanted us to wear that HECS clothing. I never experienced seeing how an elk or a deer reacted to it close enough to where it mattered, although I had some bunnies come in arms length to me while I was glassing. I would say your biggest thing is scent and movement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
