Default RE: Interesting study on deer vision.

Nice article Charlie. It would seem that what the UV Killer folks have been saying for quite some time is right on.... at least in low light conditions. I still prefer camo to camo/orange because in bowhunting situations I don't want other hunters to see me as much as I don't want the deer to. Ofcourse, if another archer is aiming 30 feet up a tree then they definitely aren't aiming at a deer.

I find it curious though that there was no mention of camo patterns. As long as the pattern allows you to blend into your surroundings it would not seem to matter if it was "open" or "conventional".
