Default RE: Hunting from the ground

I know I'll get flamed for this, but some ppl put way too much emphasis on camo. Its the wind (their noses) and movement that'll bust you.

Two seasonsago mybuddy was sitting in a red folding chair wearinghunter orange cover-alls and was reading a book because we were running dogs and he figured he'd hear if any action was coming (gun hunt). He looked up before turning a page and had two does feeding on acorns within 20yrds! He got one of them but only because he knew to wait for the perfect opportunity to move for his rifle.
Their noses are their number 1 defense, and I would rather be sitting still in a clown suit than moving around a bit the best camo out there.
