Wife came home after making a little shopping trip to a nearby city this morning.While in a Kmart she picked me up a pair of camo pants and a camo shirt on clearance. Guess she thought I could use them and it is the thought that counts but.............if ya sawem in person, well I don't know if you'd laugh or puke. They don't match and are so dark a swat team could use them. I suppose I could wear them around the house or maybe mushroom hunting. Just as long nobody sees me in them. Guess I can return them and use the money toward some camo I pick out. I'll post a pic in a bit, but honey I'll pick out my own camo!

My wife knows that the only thing hunting or shooting related that she can buy me, is a gift card to a store I frequent.

LOL been there done that! My bacpack strap blew out a few years ago right around Christmas and my wife got me a new one. Lets justsay thatmarriages gobetter when we dont pick out girl stuff for them and they dont get us hunting equipment. Wife and I now have an undertsanding: Gift certificates are never the wrong size or color (or pattern if they're for new camo)

lol!It was nice of her to try. My suggestion to you is to wear the heck out of those clothes, even if it means changing in your truck before you go hunting, and changing back before you go home.Just kiddin. We have anotherproblem with camo.Our problem is fighting over who gets to get new camo. And if one of us gets new stuff, the other wants it too.

That happened to me this Christmas. Mom got me a pair of camo coveralls thatfit perfect if I wear about 20 pairs of jeans underneath them
. I just thanked her for them because atleast she was trying to get something I like.
