It' s important to blend in with your environment. Most patterns are developed to match certain regions and will blend best in those areas. I have heard many times that deer can see or identify only one color; BLUE. So whatever you buy, make sure it ties in to the foilage or the lack thereof in your favorite hunting area. As the others have mentioned, don' t pick an open area on the ground and think you will be invisible, regardless of the pattern you chose or the amount of money you paid for your gear. Good cover, both on the ground and in your stand will help you see more deer and possibly help you in your harvest.
