Confidence and Camo
An awful lot of bickering has been going on here regarding which camo is best. There is no easy answer,but consider the confidence factor. Just as you must have confidence in all of your other equiptment (bow,rest,sights,arrows and even scent elimination and containment products)you must also have confidence in the camo you wear. This can be olive drab BDU's or the latest pattern from Enigma. If you have confidence in it and your own abilities you will do well! I like Rob's idea of a series of comparison photo's, I've proposed to accomplish this at the get-together in June. Not to settle the question but to give others incl. myself an unbiased resource when making a camo purchase. The photos of course will be staged but each pattern will be photographed in the same set-up. This will never end the debate (Ford vs. Chevy) but may be helpful to others in our forums.
edit: added the n in confidence in the title. |
RE: Confidence and Camo
Confidence in camo means nothing when you get busted and it ruins an opportunity. IMO, it's effectiveness is much different than other equipment that rely's on a human to perform.
I will only wear Predator, and I've tried many! It just works better! |
RE: Confidence and Camo
I wear predator also and am very happy with it. I use the evolution which fas a lot of yellow and tan in it with some grey branches and leaves it works great in the river bottom I hunt cuz ther'es a lot of sand and scrub oaks with retained leaves well into spring. However when I', in my treestand in the cedars it doesn't work as well, something darker and more busy may work better. In bare trees and skylit I can see many other open patterns that would work well also including Fall grey and skyline Horizon. You relly need to tailor it to a given situation, no one pattern will work in all situations.

Hey, you may have a new jingle for them "Wear Predator, it works Better"

RE: Confidence and Camo
I hear ya. I chalk it up to market issues. It's big money and I believe these forums are used to sell things. No big deal.
As far as camo goes I have been waiting for what I heard the military has, camo that changes with it environment. I don't understand why people get all defensive about something unless they either have some thing personal to gain or the company they are defending deserves it ie. great product at a price that has the customer in mind, they really want to help me be better at what I want to do. Not line their pockets, regardless of whether they can demand that price or not. The company treats others as they would like to be treated. I'll beat the drums for them. The company that charges what they can get has gotten all they will from me, a couple bucks and a yes I use it, yes I like it, not much more. |

RE: Confidence and Camo
I wish someone would make a camo that works in cattails/ tall crested wheat grass that is common in the CRP around here. I've never found camo that is light coloredenough. Everything is TOO dark !!
Anyone know of lighter tan/brown camo?? Tim |

RE: Confidence and Camo
I'm serious, buy some skyline apparition in cotton. The more it fades the better it gets in weedy situations. It doesn't have to have all the sticks and grass to hide you.

Or how about a waterfowling pattern like MO shadow grass? |
