Okay seeing as how we have a crap-ton of snow on the ground with no shot of it melting anytime before season close...I went and bought some snow camo...I had a poor experience the other night when I wore it out, I had three does walk up on me and I was in a tree stand about 20' up the doe when it got about 15-20 yds from me, froze and looked right at me, so I froze and we had a little bit of a staring contest which I one because she didn't spook...she just got nervous...my question is snow camo effective from a treestand or should I stick to ground hunting when wearing it...

Oh and the outcome of that hunt is sort of a downer...when the doe started moving again, I drew when her head was behind a tree, whether it was the noise or movement all three deer scattered and left me with a 35 yd shot through a narrow opening in tree's I made sure there were no twigs to block the arrow judged the distance and released...I misjudged and came up with a bunch of fur and little bit of blood..I tried tracking for two days with no signs and the deer looked unharmed after the shot...so...

I made a couple of mistakes...I should have drawn sooner as they were walking in that way I would have been ready to release when the doe stopped...second?? Did the snow camo screw me??? wasn't wind or smell...she tried and couldn't get me, that makes me happy at least...what do you all think?
