| Industry Trend Setters of 2010 - The Breath-Taker reviewed by Brandon Wikman | |
| The Breath-Taker™ is the missing link in total scent control. It eliminates the odors present in our breath. Up to 80% of human scent comes directly from the moist regions of our mouth through the simple act of breathing. At the rate of 60 gallons an hour, these large volumes of air bourn human specific scents are quite possibly the most ignored and deterring factor of success in the whitetail hunting world today. The ultimate solution is The Breath-Taker™. This innovative disposable where it counts active carbon facemask is the only effective option for reducing game-spooking human breath. | |

| The Breath-Taker reviewed by Garry Elliot | |
| A while back I spoke to Garry at Smootchie Outdoors about their Breath-Taker masks and was invited to try them for myself. I had actually found out about them on the internet and thought what a simple idea and no one is doing it but them. Yes, I know some companies incorporate a mask into their outerwear and that adds to the cost of the outerwear as well. So, for a reasonable price of around $10.00 you get 5 individually wrapped masks each lasting upwards of 24 hours and if kept properly in the re-sealable package they can be used more than once. Odor particles floating in the breeze, will stick to the moisture on the deer's nose and then drawn into the olfactory organs. A deer can detect the odor of approaching danger several hundred yards away. Their elongated noses are filled with an intricate system of nasal passages that contain millions of olfactory receptor sites. Their keen sense of smell is very important for avoiding predators, identifying other deer, and identifying food sources. Perhaps most importantly, their sense of smell is important for scent communication with other deer. Deer have seven glands that are used primarily for scent communication. |
