For deer and elk, I concentrate more on breaking up my outline or blending into a background.Deer and Elk don't see the color we do. I do like the concept of certain camo patterns, not for their color but for their break-up ability. Blending into our surroundings, having a quality background cover are key for me.I do like a 3-d leafy suit for breaking up my outlinewhilebowhuntingelk and deer, especially while off the ground. If I didn't have an open rifle black bear season to contend with here while I am bowhunting deer and elk, I would simplydress in all black from head to toe and blend into the shadows. Eye contact with animals is a big factor for me as well. I always hide my eyes when animals are bow close.
