Normal IMO. When I take my FL base layers out of the wash and hang dry them the laundry room has a definite funk smell.
Once they dry they smell normal.
Once they dry they smell normal.
I have no issues following this advice/method.Sometimes when I take them out of the washer, if I had let them sit for a little while in there, they are little musky with that wool smell, but honestly, once they are dry the smell goes away. I've never experienced the smell while hunting even when I've been soaked by a rain storm or sweated a bunch. I have a lot of merino wool, but just have never experienced what you are dealing with.
Try washing with a little baking soda and some scentless detergent maybe? All my hunting clothes get washed that way, and like I said I don't have any stinky wool issues for the most part.
