I read this thread and the first thought that comes to mind is How could the eastern Indians not have starved to death or just been fish eaters. No real tree camo back then I don't think.

I also wonder and scratch my head and wonder how those old time pictures showing the hunters in about every mode of out door dress for the early 1900's ever got those huge bucks to pose for the pictures with them. No wood land camo back then I don't think.

Just read a article yesterday in a varmint hunting mag that talked about sprinters. Sprinters are the persons that think they have to cover a quarter of the county per day to see any thing to shoot.

I was hunting long before blaze orange was required in Michigan. When it became a law to wear it I figured I would be in deep caca where I hunted.
First year I harvested a nice 8 point that dropped in its tracks. I paced it off to where it dropped from where I was sitting and it was 8 steps.

I personally don't think camo means a thing to wild animals. How bad you stink and your movements are what they see and smell.
