RE: 3-D Leefy suit
Big Daddy, I purchased a mossy oak scent lok 3-D leafy wear suit from cabelas about 4 years ago and I cannot leave it at home when archery hunting. I swear by it! I hunt solely out of tree-stands and it dramatically helps conceal me. I cannot tell you how many times I have been able to fool a suspecting whitetail when theywere staring at me. My suit is getting worn out, so I purchased the same suit from Cabelas this year, at least I thought it was the same. The suit has changed and there are no pockets in it and there is no belt loops so I sent it back.
I am not familier with the ASAT brand, but I will be checkingthem out also.
good luck

RE: 3-D Leefy suit
You know, I would probably vote for ASAT, but I am not 100% convinced.
I bought a 3d asat before this year...and it has been the absolute worst year I have had hunting in over 5 years. I had none, zero, notta, zilch encounters with shooter bucks. And maybe only2 or 3 does that were in shooting range. And then I couldn't make it happen on them.
I really doubt it is the ASAT, but it is the only thing I have changed this year. Well, besides my underwear!!
But I still like my asat and wear it every time in the field. It has gotten me a coyote and I missed the second one. It does work well...I am just venting on a horrible season right now!!

RE: 3-D Leefy suit
The two 3-d suits I own are just too noisy to draw silently in. The sound quiet enough in a non hunting enviroment, but when it's deer 30 and the woods are quiet they are loud to my hard of hearing ears.
When someone makes one with fleece or cotton leaves I'll buy my next 3-d suit, until then it's back to the same old same old for me.
They do work well in concealing you better if your not moving around making noise with them, I'll give them that.

BigDaddy, I know there's tons and tons of votes of confidence that will be coming for the ASAT 3D leafy suit, and deservedly so...
But, just to throw another thought out there, check out the Sneaky Leaf leaves that can be pinned on in a flash. These are some pretty cool little gizmos that you can use to turn your ordinary hunting clothes into 3D without incurring the added expense of a whole new suit.
Here's a before and after with the product I'm referring to:
Before:
After:
I bought a bag of these things a couple years ago, and found them to be extremely soft after a few washings -- which made them extremely quiet. And they're really affordable. What I really liked about them was that I could apply them wherever I wanted... I left them off the inside of my bow arm, and other areas like that.
Hope that helps. If not you, then maybe someone.

Are you using the fall or the all season?
