RE: ASAT Camo
I have used ASAT since 1996 or 1997 ? (Been awhile) I love it.
As a hunter you have to get familiar with the idea that you are hiding your human outline from the keen eye of the wary deer. That said, IMHO there is no better pattern for accomplishing this task.
At the Eastern outdoor expo in Harrisburg, PA I spoke with the owners of the company to find out what happened to their products. When I purchased mine I bought it through Brigade Quartermaster' s catalog. After my initial purchase I could not find it anywhere, as BQ had dropped it from their line.
I told them that I was considering switching to " Natural Gear" . They both employ the same marketing tactics.
They told me that I should see them both side/side at a distance before I decide.
According to their salesman/owner, Nat. Gear still " blobs out" and gives away human outline at distances of about 100yds. Not Good!
As a hunter we are conditioned to believe that we need to look like a tree to hide from our game, when in fact we just need to hide our human form. So in the woods, the first time you wear ASAT, you may feel like you stand out, but believe me...you blend!
Just get the " leafy suit" then you can wear what you want underneath. Even today the deer/turkey/elk/etc. don' t have x-ray vision! lol
Good Hunting!
