You need to wear enough camo to cover yourselffrom head to toe, facemask/paint, gloves,ect...It depends on the weather if you want to go light or heavy on the clothes but on hot daysput on little as possible but still be covered, trust me you dont want to have 3 layers of clothes on when its 90 outside.

I camoflauge from head to toe. Turkey have very good eye-sight and they especially pick up on movement. So after you get camoed-out, sit on a big wide tree to help break-up your outline and if possible, put the sun to your back. This helps greatly because it puts you in the shadow of the tree, making it more difficult to spot you...

Head to toe camo, butmore importantly- DON'T MOVE! They can pick up on the slightest movement. Make sure that when you move, they're behind a tree or fan towards you.

It also might be a good idea to wear a good turkey vest. So you have somewhere to put your calls and decoys.

If you want some excellent camo gear for turkey hunting, check out Ol' Tom technial turkey gear. They're having a clearance sale, and you can buy some excellent gear for a decent price. Be warned, order the next size larger than you need, because the sizes run on the small side.

Not to give you the broken record treatment, but just DON'T MOVE. You can get away with just about anything short of your Disco outfit :) Well... camo head to toe is a good idea, but I've killed one in bluejeans before.

Be still and be patient.
