Funny thing, smoking.

My old hunting club had about a dozen cajuns in it. Oren (the elder of the bunch) ALWAYS smoked on the stand/shooting house/blind (which ever he was in). Man killed more deer in the club than any two members put together. Jeremy and myself helped him hunt down several wounded ones. Orin was color blind and could not pick out the red blood on the leaves. As a results, he usually used a .300 mag so they didn't run after they were hit!

Don't know how Orin got away with smoking, but it did not seem to impede his ability to spot and kill deer.

BTW, before anyone gets offended by "cajun", this is what they preferred. And, they WERE cajun, not just from Louisiana, but from deep in, and most of hem in our club came from the coastal areas and they all worked in the oil business?!!?
