An apparatus for preventing transfer of odors from a vehicle to a hunter from a self propelled vehicle has at least one seat, a floorboard and a steering wheel. A cover for the seat, and/or floor mat and/or steering wheel has a vapor barrier to prevent odors from the seat, and/or floor mat and/or steering wheel from passing therethrough, and a material such as silk or RAYON® disposed on top of the vapor barrier of the seat, and/or floor mat and/or steering wheel which is free of any substance foreign to it that would have an odor associated with it, or it can be treated with an odor absorbing substance, or it can be treated with a “cover scent” such as acorn or earth/dirt scent which would be transferred to the hunter's hands and/or clothing and/or boots. Alternatively, a scent absorbing layer, such as a SCENT LOK® layer, can be disposed under the vapor barrier.

The invention claimed is: 1. Apparatus for preventing transfer of odors from a vehicle to a hunter comprising: a self propelled vehicle having at least one seat, a floorboard and a steering wheel, the seat having a mostly horizontal portion with a top and a mostly vertical portion with a front side; a cover for the seat, the cover including a seat vapor barrier over the top and front side of the seat to prevent odors from the seat to pass therethrough; a seat material disposed on top of the seat vapor barrier; and a seat odor absorbing layer disposed below the seat vapor barrier wherein the seat odor absorbing layer comprises an agent being provided in the base layer and selected from the group consisting of activated charcoal, chlorophyll, baking soda, activated alumina, soda lime, zeolite, calcium oxide, and potassium permanganate. 2. The apparatus of claim 1 including: a floor mat disposed above the floorboard forward of the seat, the floor mat having a floor mat vapor barrier and a floor mat material disposed on top of the floor mat vapor barrier for being in contact with the hunter's foot wear. 3. The apparatus of claim 2 including a sheet operatively connected to a front lower part of the seat cover and to a rear portion of the floor mat. 4. The apparatus of claim 3 wherein at least one releasable fastener operatively attaches the sheet to the seat cover. 5. The apparatus of claim 3 wherein at least one releasable fastener attaches the sheet to the floor mat. 6. The apparatus of claim 3 wherein the sheet is integral with the seat cover and floor mat. 7. The apparatus of claim 6 including a floor mat odor absorbing layer disposed below the floor mat vapor barrier. 8. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the seat material is treated with a cover scent. 9. The apparatus of claim 8 including: a cover for the steering wheel having a steering wheel vapor barrier covering that portion of the steering wheel that is touched while driving the vehicle; and a steering wheel material disposed over the steering wheel vapor barrier. 10. The apparatus of claim 1 including: a cover for the steering wheel having a steering wheel vapor barrier covering that portion of the steering wheel that is touched while driving the vehicle; and a steering wheel material disposed over the steering wheel vapor barrier. 11. The apparatus of claim 10 including a steering wheel odor absorbing layer disposed below the steering wheel vapor barrier. 12. The apparatus of claim 10 including: a floor mat disposed above the floorboard forward of the seat, the floor mat having a floor mat vapor barrier and a floor mat material disposed on top of the floor mat vapor barrier for being in contact with the hunter's foot wear. 13. Apparatus for preventing transfer of odors from a vehicle to a hunter comprising: a self propelled vehicle having at least one seat, a floorboard and a steering wheel, the seat having a mostly horizontal portion with a top and a mostly vertical portion with a front side; a floor mat disposed above the floorboard forward of the seat, the floor mat having a floor mat vapor barrier and a floor mat material disposed on top of the floor mat vapor barrier for being in contact with the hunter's foot wear; and a floor mat odor absorbing layer disposed below the floor mat vapor barrier. 14. The apparatus of claim 13 wherein the floor mat material is treated with a cover scent. 15. Apparatus for preventing transfer of odors from a vehicle to a hunter comprising: a self propelled vehicle having at least one seat, a floorboard and a steering wheel, the seat having a mostly horizontal portion with a top and a mostly vertical portion with a front side; a cover for the steering wheel having a steering wheel vapor barrier covering that portion of the steering wheel that is touched while driving the vehicle; a steering wheel material disposed over the steering wheel vapor barrier; and a steering wheel odor absorbing layer disposed below the steering wheel vapor barrier. 16. The apparatus of claim 15 wherein the steering wheel absorbent material is treated with a cover scent. 17. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the seat material is silk or a semi-synthetic fiber. 18. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the vapor barrier comprises polyethylene. 19. The apparatus of claim 18 wherein the polyethelene is cross-laminated virgin poly sheeting, made from high density resins.
