Poll on camo
 
25+ years ago when I started hunting, I just wore jeans and jacket. No camo. around 10 years ago I started using army BDU's this year I'm using modern camo. It was the cheapest so I got Realtree hardwoods green.

What kind of camo do you use?
A.Mossy oak, Which version?

B. realtree, Which version?

C.Army BDU

D. Camo? What's that?

E other brand.

FOOLPROOF?
Never underestimate the power of a fool!

I have both realtree hardwoods and realtree advantage. The stand I'm hunting dictates which pattern I use. I have some great testimonials to their success.

I'm like you thundermug. I started off with nothing, and I still generally buy whatever is on sale. I usually wait until the season is over and then I check with a national distributor that carries camping gear to see what they have. Guess what? They buy Cabela's old stock and re-sell it at a great savings! I picked up a one piece uninsulated, gore-tex outfit from them for half of what it cost in Cabela's. It still had Cabela's green tag inside it. The pattern is basic Mossy Oak, but to be honest it really doesn't matter to me. I truly believe that just about any camo you use will work, provided that you take time to make sure of a good tree stand setup. Anything that breaks up your form is fine. Jimmymac :)

Mossy Oak man here. I have there older patterns, Greenleaf, treestand and the newer Break-up patterns as well. Realtree has some great patterns too. These would be my two choices of camo companies. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Mossy oak break up.

Mostly B....not for any other reason other than that is what Cabelas usually carries the most of.

I have a little bit of everything but my two favorites right now are Realtree Xtra Brown for early season when there is still green around and Advantage Timber for the late, regular bow season...both in Saddle Cloth material.

How 'bout this:
I just hung my stand yesterday (opener here in MI isn't till OCT1) and I decided to &quot;stick around&quot; and just see how it felt. Sure enough, an 8 point came strolling up the hedgerow, right to my funnel, and walked right up my shooting lane and passed under my tree.
Now- I was wearing faded blue jeans, a Wilson basketball shirt and sneakers. Not to mention I was covered in sweat from clearing limbs and also had a healthy dose of mosquito repellant on. I'm convinced that it does'nt matter much what your pattern is, but if you are perfectly motionless, you just might get buy with almost anything.

I know if I had to draw on this guy, or tried to move around, he probably would have spotted me asap, but I am amazed at what happened none-the-less. Really makes me question the $200 camo systems...

I use Mossy Oak Break Up, Realtree Hardwoods, and Advantage Timber: Any mixed combination of the three but I always mix up my pants & jacket... (I think) it helps to break up my form more if the patterns don't match. The Most important type of camo: the motionless kind.

I have two pair of camo pants and two shirts and honestly I couldn't tell you what kind they were, all the new stuff is the same to me.

FroMan 09-02-2002 03:40 PM

RE: Poll on camo
 
I use, Mossy Oak Break-Up, Forrest Floor, and Shadow Grass. I also use Realtree Hardwoods Green, Realtree Advantage, and Advantage Timber. You name the type of camo, and I probably have a piece of it in my collection. Call me new age or a Generation X-er...lol.

My mind belongs to my work...
My heart belongs to my family...

But my soul...belongs to the woods.

Early season - Advantage Timber

Middle season - Mossey Oak Breakup and some Realtree Hardwoods

Late season - Snow camo. I think its a Mossey Oak patern.


PRACTICE....PRACTICE....PRACTICE......SUCCESS!

Could care less what brand or fashion it is, as long as it's &quot;LEAFY WEAR&quot;. This stuff would be outlawed if the general public new how great it was. It's almost, I said almost, like cheating!!

Little bit of everything. Mossy Oak, Realtree, Natgear, and other dark colored clothing. I usually mix and match between camos. I'll wear whatever I grab.
