Looks like Germ got his wish.

Though I am a longtime big Predator fan I cannot say its the best or that any is the best. Depends on the time of year and situation you are using it in. Here are some pics I took two weeks ago of jackets in Predator Fall Gray and Realtree AP:

Yep. Ultimate camo or Trebark should be great when in a tree but, if the deer approaches you from a side view and your body is against the backdrop of the sky, especially when the leaves are gone that Predator Fall Gray really hides you. So what does a hunter do?;)

Wow, those pics of AP are very impressive. I hate to say it, but I'm surprised by that. AP does a great job of breaking up any outlines and blending without "blobbing."

I love Predator too, as well as ASAT, I think Enigma is great, I'm now a fan of AP, and that new Ultimate camo is very impressive in environments with a lot of oaks. Lots of great choices out there. Too bad my money is finite.[&:]

Me too HuntingBry. I'd rather have a full wardrobe of camo in my closet than regular clothes anyday.

Seeing as trees have branches, sometimes very large ones which arealso backgrounded by the sky, I simply act like a branch! [:-]

Good thinking! Greg, I still have a great looking polarfleece Trebark jacket in my closet that I haven't worn in many years...........but I might come next season. Still wish I had my trusted old favorite Trebark bibs, probably my most favorite piece of camo clothing I ever owned. Killed a lot of deer wearing those.

Yeah CougarMag, if you hang that Realtree AP in a tree with only limbs and sky behind you, it BLOBS. LOL

I kinda think the jacket only, in Fall Gray, is not a good "on theground" test. Try taking the same test with Fall Brown or Brown Deception (Pants and coat) and compare that to the AP in the same type of background. You may just be suprised at what you "don't" see.

All that said, I am really interested in some of Diesel's Ultimate Camo as well. Looks really suited to some of my hunting areas.
