Do any of you here wear the same pair of boots both for hunting and around the town?
The only reason I'm asking is that I have a handful of friends that have a broken in pair of boots that they wear pretty much every day, as well as for deer hunting.
I'm not sure if a deer's sense of smell is keen enough to pick it up, but I would think that a pair of boots that's been all over the place (fast food joints, shopping centers, classrooms, car parts stores, etc.) would have a lot more "human" smells ingrained into it than a pair stored in a scentlock bag all year except for a few minutes before one steps into the woods with rifle in hand.
I'm considering buying a decent pair of boots (Danners, etc) and I would like to know if they could do double duty as work boots/hunting boots.
