Rob, I assume you purchased your ASAT way before the company switched hands (or whatever happened that caused the sudden change)? Did you stop using it because of the way they were running things, or you just wanted to try something new? I'm hesistant to ask this for fear of starting a camo war, but in your experience (since we hunt basically the same terrain/environment), do you feel Enigma is on par (or even better) overall than ASAT (considering quality of material, versatility, effectiveness, etc)? I think you also have Predator Fall Brown, correct? How would you say that compares to both Enigma and ASAT?
Enigma is definately on Par with ASAT, particularly generation 2 which is all you can purchase at the time being. It's the right tones and break up. I was never busted in G1 and I feel G2 is superior than G1. I know Chuck is working as hard as he can on the 3D sometime in the near future. I am actually very exited about it but we won't see it this season I don't believe. Where it surpasses ASAT is material as Enigma comes in Wolfskin.
I stopped being an ASAT company supporter because of the current owner and his practices. I still believe ASAT the pattern is incredible. If the company changes hands/owners and he's a reputable guy I'll purchase ASAT again.
Fall Brown is an exceptional pattern as well.
