I use predator as well and yet to find a better camo for our terrain. I have found the Spring Green Pattern excellent for elk hunting in the east of the province. It works well in mixed forest, pines and especially good in Brush such as the Hazle's and willows which is a large portion of the under cover in the eastern forest/fringe areas. Prior to the leaves turning this patterns is just dynamo which happens to be our archery elk season. Predator has a new green pattern out which I haven't seen in person called Green Deception (I believe), if that is more your fancy.

Best of luck.

Quite honestly, if I am hunting in a state that requires solid blaze orange, I see no point in camoflauge. There is just no point in it. Far more important are using the wind to your advantage, using the natural cover available to you, and keeping your movement to a minimum while in a situation where the animal may have a shot at seeing you. I have killed each of my animals without any camo visible and withing plain view of the animal. I feel it really makes no true difference.

Charlie, wouldn't that make it illegal to use camo?????


The poster is from my area so I know if he is asking about camo it is for Archery season, as solid colours are required in rifle season. I agree camo is only as good as the setup which includes wind advanatge, backing, etc. However being he will be bow hunting the proper camo clothing can be advantageous, provided the elements to the proper set up are considered.
