This year Im going leafy. I had awesome success in turkey season, and literally look like a bush if you stay still on the ground and simulate one. As far as bowseason I plan on using an arm sock so I wont stand a chance at it getting in my way at the shot.

Even with a leafy, or Ghillie.....scent is IMPORTANT. Those deer wouldnt have gotten within 75 yrds if the wind and scent werent right!

Dont let it make you over confident. I have seen some ghillies that look better for the special forces, and not hunting. Poor visibility, especially to see a .19 pin and will actually make a bit of noise when you arent careful.

Preference is with leafy and a sock on the bow arm!
