I think it has it's uses, and I think it depends on where you hunt. I've talked to guys that have spots where they actually get bored hunting deer because they see so many from their standthat it's just not much of a challenge (sure wish I had that problem). Then you have places like here, where the deer come in looking up in the trees and bugger when a mouse breaks wind. Pressure will educate a deer, as will uneducated hunters. I'm not a big believer in factory camo, but I do make sure I have something on my hands and face--either camo paint or a mesh headnet and gloves--those two things are what move the most, and seem to stand out the most.

I've heard about places where guys see 60 deer a day from their stands, and places where you can get 12 feet up a tree and the deer will never spot you, but that's just not the case here.
