Being still, is the most important thing. I've killed as many turkeys in blue jeans, and a brown t-shirt, with no gloves, hat, or head net, as I have in any cammoflage. But the cammoflage helps so much that it's well worth having. It actually hides many movements that would otherwise give you away. I have used a leafy suit, a cheap one from wolf creek or something like that for ten years. Same suit, still in good shape for $60. It makes you invisible almost. Wind is always blowing where I hunt, I can't think of any still mornings, but my suit is moving no more than anything else around me. I actually like a little breeze to hide my movement in the woods. If everything else is moving, you can move too, you just don't want to be the only thing moving. When everything is moving, you don't want to be the only thing still. You always hunt with the wind, even if scent isn't important. You move when the wind picks up and the grass moves. You stop when it stops. the wind hides movements and sounds you make. The leafy suits are great, but knowing what you're doing makes anything possible.
