Hey, I started to make a ghillie suit.

It is mainly made of mesh and burlap. I'm still not sure what I'd do for the foliage. I thought I'd use quick snaps and just switch which foliage I will be in so it will be a bit more versatile.

If anyone got any input feel free to share, I'm all ears.

It will be tested on next wild turkey season.

You don't need anymore than what you have now.

Thanks for the reply, that's what I was thinking. It was already beefy and it break the human shape.

Some pointed out that I don't have foliage, I thought I could slip some between the layers if it was a necessity.

You don't need foliage. All you have to do is break up your outline and blend in, you have accomplished that. I have seen worse looking commercial suits.

You definitely don't need to do anything else. If I hadn't seen you in the first picture standing next to the tree, I would have never picked you out there next to it in the second picture.

+1 LOL

I think you're "covered" bud !!!

lol thanks ! Well that settles that.

Sure looks like a ghillie to me!

My only thoughts were:

1) Drag that puppy behind your truck for a few miles to tatter up your burlap, it'll cut out any sharp lines you have in the strands

2) I gave up on ghillie-ing my legs below the knees. Way too much to snag in the field. Most of the time, I only wear a ghillie jacket or "poncho" with a hood - by the time I sit down, my legs are easily concealed, either in the natural debris, or by slacking the fibers from the top over my legs a bit.

wow, you did a fantastic job. honestly that looks better than most of the suits people pay good amounts of money for.

Looks Fantastic I wouldn't change a thing. I would possibly make another one that has more brown in it for the fall.
