Speaking of Camo
 
Just for some giggles please no bashing.

I have been here thinking about this ( I know it is dangerous for me to think):D.

But why did you purchase the camo you are currently wearing?
What sort of warranty does your current camo have?

I will start and as everyone knows I am a BIg fan of ASAT and try to enlighten people whenever I can.

The reason I wear ASAT is simple because it works and works in every situation I have been in. Over the last 40 odd years of bow hunting I have tried just about every camo pattern on the market and nothing works as well as ASAT for me.

Now I can call ASAT and actually speak to one of the owners Chuck Pensyl can you guys call your favorite camo company and speak to the owner.

ASAT comes with an unconditional money back guarrantee that if you dont see more game in 1 full year of purchase while wearing it they will give you your money back no questions asked.

With the 3d suit ASAT is the only one that has the pattern on the under mesh so on those windy days you are still covered.

I am a little rushed for time now as I have to get ready for work but will probably post more later.

So come on guys and remember to play nice;)

I am using ASAT pretty much because of one person! Matt/PA.

When I was looking for camo, he suggested the ASAT and he has ALWAYS led me in the right direction, so I looked into it and decided to give it a try! Now, I can't imagine wearing anything else!:D

I bought it because it was the exact opposite of what everyone here on the forum has been suggesting.....:D[8D].

I used to get busted alot wearing the old Advantage so I switched to MOBU. That was a little better especially the later in the season it got. Still got busted a bit probably becuase it was too dark. After seeing all the pictures of it in use on their website and seeing how well it broke up the outline of the hunter. And after reading all the stories of "Look through" here on this site. I decided to ask for it this year for christmas I got an ASAT 3D leafy suit from my g\f. I only got to wear it a couple times but I was able to walk up on a couple does within 30 yards. When they did spook I believe it was becuase I stepped on some bean stubble and it snapped. This year will be my first full year using the suit and I can't wait. I'm even gonna use it for spring turkey season. It's a great warranty that ASAT has but I don't think I'll be needing it!

Woodland Camo
 
I have a ton of "woodland camo" from an earlier career (regular weight, tropical
weight, wet weather gear, cold weather gear and chemical protection gear).
Plenty of pockets and all in good shape -- can't justify extra funds for more camo!

ASAT, because Ausie told me too!

Actually because you ordered it for me.

Cause it was there / good price / I like the way it looked / thought it made me look thinner;)


What sort of warranty does your current camo have?
Guaranteed to fade and not matter:)

same reason I use mine:D

Most of us wear some sort of camo when we go hunting. Like some people, I started using military surplus because it was cheap, then I ordered some ASAT from Brigade Quartermaster, That stuff went away for awhile and I started in with Advantage, then went on to Hardwoods 20/200.
Found the ASAT guys at the Harrisburg Sportsman's a couple of years ago and went hog wild. Bought everything, BDU pants, hats, gloves, light jacket, and finally the leafy suit.
Since then I have gotten rid of every other pattern of stuff I had. About 2 big Rubbermaid totes full, sold off or donated.
Maybe it's just me, but after you "get it",no other camo makes any sense.
So I am just wondering of the folks out there that use ASAT (or other forms of "open" pattern camo), how many of you would ever switch back to the "sticks and leaves" type camo?

I bought it because I can get a set of Camos (Pants and a Shirt) for under $50.00.

It may not be the ASAt or the Predator camo that everyone on here speaks so highly of, but hey, it's camo, it breaks up my outline, it's Realtree. :D

I don't think that this is that unusual. We will spend $1000 on a bow, $100 on a dozen arrows, $300 on a tree stand and then skimp on what may be the most vital link...our camouflage. To me this is like having a $1400 dollar rifle and feeding it $.25 ammo.
If you have taken the time to do the research, to own the best gear, why would you skimp on the camo?

but hey, it's camo, it breaks up my outline, it's Realtree.
I think if you do some side/side comparisons or look at some of the other posts around here you may find out something that may surprise you.[&o][:o]
