I don't think the Squirrels really care what we wear....probably smear some Jiffy Peanut Butter all over Your body,and act like a Nut?


Seriously....I wear Natural Gear Camo most of the time or some type of Mossy Oak or Real Tree Ap (All Purpose) Camo to blend in with the surroundings!Winter time when there's snow on the ground I have Natural Gear Snow Camo that hides me very good but thats what I mostly use when Coyote Hunting!

Default Now that's funny

Newbies, it seems, keep discovering new and usually a lot more expensive, ways to dress and hunt.
When I started, it was old street clothes, with a new orange vest and baseball hat. I have a couple of old sweaters that have lasted for decades, and still fit. I keep a couple of old wool dress pants ready for colder weather.

But I'll admit to being a few year's removed from current fads. Well more than a couple. Still have an old compass to guide me on my hunting jaunts. But, I'm thinking of a less expensive gps. Really am. I have some solo hunts planned this year.

I'm pretty sure you could hunt squirrels in cut-off jean shorts and Jimmy Buffett T-shirt.

However, if you want full camo and don't want to spend much... I bought a set of BDUs at the Army Surplus store for 40 bucks, so there's that.
