WELL.... it finally arrived
 

Now all I have to do is get down to see the guy and pick up my ASAT 3D camo duds. Of course, with all this snow I don't need them right now. I'm sure it'll be gone in a week or so and I'll be back to looking for some way to hide. I tell ya.. I also really like my Apparition Horizon as a snow flage pattern. The deer don't even see ya' while you're walking.:D

With the ASAT, maybe you'll finally have an opportunity to shoot some deer this year!! :D:D

David, where did you buy it? I thought it was mail order and therefore sent right to your house.

RE: WELL.... it finally arrived
 

A friend is a friend of the ASAT guys. He told me he'd get me a set back in October. He just got it.:eek:

RE: WELL.... it finally arrived
 

You can order it online. Mine was sent to the house.

Dave,
You're going to love it. I got mine at the end of last season, and I've used it all year this season. It is absolutely amazing on how it hides you. I've had soooo many neat experiences with it this year, it would take too long of a post to write about them all. Be sure to wash it a couple of times to quiet it up.
BTW, the ASAT guys are at Harrisburg every year, with their full stock.

Treebark.... not only will the washing quiet it down... it also fluffs up the leave cutouts to give it more character. I found that out with my old leafy wear. They just seem to get a little better with every wash.

RE: WELL.... it finally arrived
 

david, what'd you pay for a full suit with 3-d leafy stuff (I assume?)?? Or did you get a discount from your friend of a friend?

RE: WELL.... it finally arrived
 

I don't think there was any discount. I think he told me $125.

David,

I look forward to hearing your impressions of it after you have a chance to use it a few times.

RE: WELL.... it finally arrived
 

I myself would also like to hear about any of your experiences.
Many times I hunt in open or near field edges where there are only small saplings and grass cover. Not alot of chance of getting a tree stand up there. One area I am hunting a buck at now is some wet area slew. Not alot of great cover in this area, but the buck likes to take that route so I have no choice.
I am interested in the product but have not heard from anyone who has actually used it, other than the ASAT website testimonials.

RE: WELL.... it finally arrived
 

Have you done a search here? I know there are many glowing accounts of it's effectiveness, I've put up a few myself, and I'm just a very satisfied and happy customer, no company ties at all...

Dave,
You'll also find that it is a great bug suit for early season. Should be great for you and Len when you use the crop permits in late summer.

I have another 3D mesh suit... but it doesn't have the contrast that this one does. Picked it up today and ran it through the washer a couple times. When the snow melts I'll give it a try... although, I don't know why it wouldn't work up in a tree even with the snow. All the snow on the trees melted or fell off in the past couple days. I'll give it a whirl next time out. I used the 3D suit I had in the summer crop damage. It was great to throw on over a pair of shorts and a T shirt once I got in my stand.

RE: WELL.... it finally arrived
 

What pattern 3D suit were you using in the past David? I would like to hear how you think it compares to the ASAT model when you get a chance to "test" it.

RE: WELL.... it finally arrived
 

When he picked it up yesterday, we took a good look at it. I'm rather suspicious (go figure) so I'll be doing my own testing. I know how concealed Dave is with his regular camo. I'll let you know if he appears to disappear moreso when I walk up on him. I know my eyes aren't as good as a deer's; but, maybe some will be interested in a Dave's perceived opinion of the deers' attitude verses my judgement of comparison under known hunting conditions.

Believe me, if he appears more concealed to me, I'll get a set quickly. Heck, I'm a believer in using various camoflauges to break up an image. That would quickly change if the findings are positive.;)

RE: WELL.... it finally arrived
 

I tried to order some off the net and it said it was on back order. I've heard its the best camo out there and will get my hands on some as soon as posible.
