I live in Arkansas and use Mossy Oak Break Up year 'round. It seems to work the best for me in all situations.

Until the manufacturers come up with a pattern which looks like a fern leaf for us Pacific Northwest hunters, its gotta be Realtree Advantage Timber or Hardwoods. They seem to do just fine.

Tail Feathers, Check out this new pattern by Tru Woods. Their EF/S pattern might work well for you. I've yet to try this camo but so far I've heard a lot of good comments about its effectiveness. I'm pretty much a die-hard Predator or Sticks n Limbs guy but I might give Tru Woods a try. Here's the link:

Tailfeathers, that tells me you know little about the science behind camoflauge. Please tell me then how I can have turkeys all but step on me in the open while wearing ASAT in the green woods......Tell me then why no animals, predator or prey has green as their primary color...in fact all animals are brown, tan and black...especially the female of all bird species. The only living thing that may think you stand out like a sore thumb would be humans and even then, I doubt they would see you in ASAT....you'd be shockingly surprised to say the least. But heck, yes your Realtree will work fine but ASAT allows me to even get away with movement on PA Gobblers and if you can get PA gobblers that close, you can get them close anywhere in the country.

Rob I freely admit I don't know about the science of camoflage. I do know that I don't want to look like an animal in the turkey woods, I want to look like part of the landscape. So I'll stay with the camo I think helps me blend in with the greenery that is so abundant here in the spring.
I don't doubt one bit that that camo works for you and it may work for me if I tried it. I'm glad to see they're using scientific research in camo, it will surely improve the industry. I really like the look of NatGear for waterfowling, and will switch my waterfowling gear to that pattern as I purchase new clothing. They claim it's good for all types of hunting, but I prefer to try to look like the background I'll be up against.
I appreciate your info, but for turkeys, I'll stick with what has worked for me-RealTree or MO ShadowLeaf.
I'll be looking for pics of you in that camo this spring with a big ol' gobbler. Have a good season.

Give 'em a barrel!

I usually buy whats on sale in the off season, where is i dont believe it makes a difference what you where. But I will try a camo from FIELDS EDGE.com the camo works great and the guy that runs it is on top of his game.

Realtree Hardwoods and Hardwoods Green for me. I really love the green works great in the spring and early fall

I love the Woolrich Technowool, which only comes in RT Hardwoods HD.

BUT...Rob hooked me on the ASAT. I got a 3-D suit for bowseason. I was never detected, and for those that may doubt it, here's two examples that it works under any circumstance.

1) Climbing down out of an oak, surrounded by a hemlock, with my Summit Viper. Got to within 2 feet of the ground, and 4 doe walk out 20 yards away. One large doe was within 4 yards at one point, before they finally wandered off none the wiser...at least until I fell out of my climber because I was starting to get thigh-cramps <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

I had deer within range of a shot 75% of the trips into the deer woods this fall, which I attribute solely to (a) being higher off the ground, (b) better scent control, and (c) better concealment with ASAT. The first point illustrates ASAT.

2) When I first got the ASAT, I sat in a medium-cut (~16 inches high) clover/grass pasture, pretty much just for S&G. By nightfall, I had been visited by a flock of turkeys within 10 yards and a red fox almost urinated on this &quot;funny bush&quot; sitting in the middle of the pasture.

This Spring, I'll be wearing my ASAT over my RT Woolrich, topped with my Mossy Oak Shadowleaf vest. Late morning, I'll strip off the wool and go with jeans and the ASAT.

S&R

my favorite is mossy-oak shadow-leaf.

Tailfeathers, thank you sir and may the good lord bless you and yours with swinging beards. I know it's a hard sell being it doesn't appease the human eye. I simply know from many years of experience it works in all circumstance...thus the name All Season, All Terrain. My partner in the our outfitting business took it to Texas and in the green spring that is Texas, it worked flawlessly. I might not bring to the table a pic of me with my bird, I should however be able to share the pics with the clients I do have. I wish you a great season as well.

Strut&Rut,

That's what I'm talking about. Wearing ASAT is as close to invisible as one can be.
