I used it all last year, there's not much in the stick but it is convenient and I think it's only 4 or 5 bucks. It's the same greasy stuff that's in the camo compacts.

I used it on the ground and in the trees. Don't remember any smell. Deer didn't seem to notice it if it did. You get 3 colors right off the stick, never have to touch it with your fingers.

Smells just like crayons.

 Goes on smooth and easy.

 Comes off when you don't want it to and sticks like glue when you don't want it to.

 I didn't like it, though what I prefer is charcoal, to give you an idea where my bias is.

Its a good product.

 But I didn't like the smell as it went on and the feel of it. The smell does diminish over time however.

used it last year, easy on easy off. no smell. a crayon like jhg said is good analogy. i used the green and brown color stick but think they got a black/gray stick now that is nice. guess its more for inside a pop up blind but i would use it in the tree/on ground too. good product IMO.

I bought two sticks when I first saw it advertised in a magazine. I thought it would be easier to apply than what I had been using.
I was surprised when I saw how tiny the tubes were, I was expecting underarm deodorant size.

Anyway, it does go on easily and wipes off with a baby wipe. I will use up what I have but probably won't buy anymore due to the price. I saw it in my local Academy store the other day.

I like the USGI two colors to a tube stuff.
