RE: HOW IMPORTANT IS IT TO BE CONCEALED WHILE IN YOUR STAND?
That system doesn't work for my style of hunting. Blob camo is blob camo. The only cover we need is our camo - to BREAK UP the outline. That is what camo is supposed to do, not look good on a rack with tons and tons of detail that just blends together when you get further than 3 feet away....
When hunting on the ground, nearly any camo works decent. It doesn't need to break up your outline against the sky, which is what very few camo patterns do well. Predator Fall Gray and Intrusion treeline are the only patterns on the market IMO that do this well.
