Default RE: 3 seasons in the field.....Camo observance

Jeff, in my 3 years, ( Ithink its kind of cool we both got a late start at the same time), I have noticed that movement, or lack thereof, Has made a big difference.
Greg....Believe it or not....THAT (movement) is what has made me change my stance on camo.

Case in pont...

It's my contention that a still deer is one of (if not THE most) the most difficult things to pick out in a forest setting. When they move.....is when we see them. I've honestly lost them after they've stopped.....and not seen them until they moved again (hasn't everyone???). I agree....this is KEY! There's a lot of things in the woods we don't notice. But if they move.....they stick out like a sore thumb.

GREAT point!

This is the reason I choose to sit a LOT more than stand when I deer hunt. I know I move, less. I'd like to know (just to know) how many times I've spooked a deer away that I never saw.
