Any advise on sun screen to use on the tops etc.
Got the fair Scottish skin problem.
Use brimmed hat, long top and pants.
Still neck hands getting hit.
Guessing all sunscreen and bug spray going to smell
Thanks

MI surf on a stand up paddle board. Last week on our hunting trip to a high block, I used the same flesh coloured zinc I surf with on my nose, lips and smeared under my eyes on my cheekbones. Also used a brimmed Huntec hat.
It's odourless.
I hunt in fingerless gloves, Stony Creek I think, so my hands are sorted.

Why would it matter if the sunscreen was odourless or not? If hunting, one should be facing into the wind, if one has the wind behind them, then I am not sure what they are doing, but it sure aint hunting.
Which is worse, ignorance or apathy...I don't know and don't care.
Sunscreen smell isn't going to be any worse than your personal stink to any game animal.
Skinny is real good. It's dry, but still liquid if that makes any sense unlike normal lotion so is not greasy or sticky. I think MacPac sell it. Not cheap but goes a long way.
The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
I use this (and i have tried lots)

When fishing don't apply sunscreen then bait up as the fish can smell it. Clean your hands first. No need to worrie about wind direction tho.
Spray on sunscreen has none of those advantages,I bloody hate sunscreen. Bloody slimy greasy shit.

Remember that 3in 1 gun oil that everyone used to use once upon a time. You could smell that before you could see the hunter some days. I often wondered how far away a deer could pick that up in the bush.
Some cullers reckoned it took a week to get the town smell out of their system and become really effective again.
In reality it probably took a week to get the beer fumes out of their brains.
Worth thinking about, Dogs roll in shit to mask their own odour. American Indians rubbed buffalo shit over themselves so they could sneak right into a herd of buffalo.
Carrying a couple of really pizzled stained stags would pretty well mask any human odour.
