I know what you mean... Obviously, you know I've made the study of camoflouge a bit of a priority in my latter bowhunting years. During my studies, I came across this quote fromRob/Pa bowyer,who's been featured on nationally released videos as a pro-staffer for a turkey call company; I think he knows a thing or two about getting turkeys in close!

Now he's talking about ASAT, which was his camo of choice in those days -- but his point still stands about camo not needing green in it to be tremendously effective during the spring hunting season:


"... that tells me you know little about the science behind camoflauge. Please tell me then how I can have turkeys all but step on me in the open while wearing ASAT in the green woods......Tell me then why no animals, predator or prey has green as their primary color...in fact all animals are brown, tan and black...especially the female of all bird species. The only living thing that may think you stand out like a sore thumb would be humans and even then, I doubt they would see you in ASAT....you'd be shockingly surprised to say the least. But heck, yes your Realtree will work fine but ASAT allows me to even get away with movement on PA Gobblers and if you can get PA gobblers that close, you can get them close anywhere in the country."


Anyway... Again -- not trying to sell you on anything at all. Heck, I don't get one red cent from the sale of one bit of Predator or anything else out there on the market... Just trying to help clear up this perceived misconception that I've seen from time to time that a person can only wear Fall Gray after the leaves come off ...
