I'm 51 and have hunted since I was 7-8...I have never owned a camo stock, not even my turkey gun is camo...I have killed at least 250 deer with a gun and have never had a deer spook due to my stock....Heck, when I was a kid (14-17) I used to shoot deer in the summer with nothing more than blue jeans and a tee shirt on and then I was sitting on the ground...Just try to sit in the shade and move slowly.
