When wearing or buying your camo, do you prefer to have matching tops and bottoms or different patterns? Matching looks good toOUR eye, but I would assume 2 different patterns would break you up even more?
After seeing it in action I'm convinced on the ASAT and Predator camo and was thinking of getting top stuff in one and bottom stuff in another........... and then a good old fashioned Treebark hat.

I almost always match, but not intentionally. All of what I have is fairly new so it all tends to look alike. I would love to get some of the Predator, but with my college budget, can't afford it!!

Thats a good question! I've always tried to match myself but the more I think about it, it probably isn't a bad idea to mix it up a little. It may then make you look like two little objects instead of one bigger object. Good question!
I put on whatever is clean and in my hunting closet in the basement. Most of the time it doesn't match. Come to think of it besides BDU's I've never purchased a matching set of camo. Most of the time it doesn't come in my size anyway. I just buy what fits and go hunt.
someone here brought it up before about NOT matching...and how you are going to create a very unnatural striaght line where the 2 patterns clash...kinda really does make sense..no matter how you see camo...exspecially mixing light/dark camo or traditional camo/open space camo
but, when it comes to deer hunting, movement is key IMO. camo still plays a rule, but i cant say ive had deer nail me when i wasnt moving...even when im not in camo, or when im in orange...
someone forgot to tell my buck that he should have never died death from a bowhunter wearing orange this year...it was opening day of grouse season and i was NOT about to be sprayed by a grouse hunter..i left my vest and hat on all morning and didnt have to. think all i had to do was display 100 inches...i dont pay attention to that law because i generally wear it, or display my vest and hat knowing im legal..
then again, anything orange i own is camo orange...i put some pics in black and white and pencil drawings from this year while playing with a photo program...amamzing how the orange camo completely disappeared into my regular camo AND the forest floor when i did that...

Far to much emphasis is placed on matching your pants and jacket.I am guilty of that almost to the point of obsession,I don't think I will ever catch up with Gary/Germ though.LOL
There are all kind of straight lines in nature.If you have a great pattern that breaks your outline I see no problem with mixing them up.
Predator,ASAT,Enigma are my favorites.I have had excellent experiences with all of them almost to the point of being unfair.Almost!
I used to wear mismatched stuff.....and still do in the early season. Once eaf drop occurs....and I'm more apt to be silouhetted......I wear one open pattern.
In the early season.....with all the foliage on the trees....I don't think it matters.
Also....if I weren't bowhunting.....and 60-100+ yds away from my prey.....I wouldn't worry about it too much.
Match your camo or not?
