Default RE: What's that blob?

You'd be surprised how invisible you are to game. Yes, sitting in a tree with no cover etc, they might look at you for a second but they'll dismiss you all but immediately. Until one wears it, one doesn't understand....I wouldn't preach it if I didn't wear it or believe in it....I've talked to, waved at and moved intentionally on game I wasn't interested in to test it...simply put, they just can't figure you out. It truly does amaze me. Sure it's not magic, and ya'll can be skeptic but those that wear it, understand what I'm talking about...
I'm not down playing the effectiveness of ASAT, I wear it every hunt and love the stuff, but its not a cure all. I was on a hunt the other week, I was running late getting into the woods and I didnt go all the way to the tree I usually hunt. I just found a tree and scurried up it, once up there I realized I was pretty out in the open but I didnt want to move as the sun was already coming up. Sure enough I have a nice buck come in out of some thick cover, I'm 25' up in my tree andthe buck is at 8 yards, I slightly moved to be in position to draw when hegot behind a tree. As soon as I moved his head shot straight up, I froze but the gig was up, he got the hell out of dodge. My ASAT 3d leafy suit didnt save me from my poor decision to climb a bare tree and leave myself out in the open. ASAT is awesome and with some cover behind you, I agree you can get away with a lot. But I dont care what camo you have on if you are
silhouetted with no background cover a deer will bust you.
