So do you do whole thing?

[Cromm]

Hi,
Been thinking about this for the last week or so.
When you go out to hunt or 3D shoot what do you wear?
We push pretty hard about not using the FB word in the bows and are proud of the fact that we have taken a deer or hog with flint, stick and string but were you dressed in wool, skin...mud and grass??
Or something that was scentlocked, gore-texed 3D pattened?
Thanks for your time.

Mostly wool for hunting....no mud if I can avoid it!!

Only a loincloth

 Mismatched camo, part military and part store bought.

After watching and participating in the camo craze for most of my hunting career I decided to go in a different direction. I am selling all my camo(except my ghillie suit and some Filson wool) and wearing plaid and earthy colors. I have seen "0" difference in the way deer pick me out from wearing camo.

I have come to the conclusion that camo is to hunters as the latest fishing lure is to fishermen, may not catch a fish but snags the fisherman every time.

When I first quit camo I felt like a woman would feel going to a big event with out make-up, sort of a naked feeling when I went hunting. Worn the stuff for 40 years. After a hunting season without it, I now I feel odd when I wear camo.

Hunt with some of both ,[no mud or loin cloth] I use Camo/some sentlock on occasion
and wool a lot,To each there own,I don't clam  to be primitive,I just hunt with wood bows.
and love to practice primitive skills. At a tournament I wear overalls and a T shirt most of the time if the weather is warm,if not overalls and a flannel shirt.

When I am hunting I were a lot of different clothes depending on the temp and weather.  I do wear camo, but I don't believe it is as important as being still and hunting with the wind.I have had very good success with earth tone colors.....but I have yet to get my first deer with a all wood bow.  I have only been doing this for a short while with the bow.  I have killed a lot of deer, and some quite close.  At 3-d shoots I wear whatever suits me at the time and whatever is comfortable.

 Clothes make the man ! ..... Ha ! !   If that be so, I'm near bum.  Kirkland bluejeans and whatever is earth toned from goodwill.  '  Frank

Once when I had blown 5 different set ups on opening morning of turkey season, I skinned completely outa my camo down to blue jeans and a bright blue t-shirt.  I was walking back to the truck when  hen walked up over a ridge.  I sat down next to a tree and watched hen after hen walk by within 15 yds of me without paying a lick of attention.  Eventually I didn't have a bird in eyesight so I lit up my box call and had a gobbler and two hens pop up 50 yds up the ridgeline and look right at me.  He strutted his way to me over the course of 5 minutes and several exchanges on the call he got his head blown off at 12 yds.  3 yr old gobblers with hens on public land aren't supposed to be this stupid.

Camo?  I'm like you, I think it's there to sell to people with money (or plastic) in their wallets.  I like to wear dull colors and move slowly or move not at all.  How many times have you been wearing blaze orange and people have walked right up on your setup claiming they never saw you?  Predator vision is keyed to motion.

most times i like to wear as much black as possible
most my hunting is done from the inside of ground blinds
so black blends in well
if im not in a blind,i wear camo
but have also had turkey and deer at very short ranges,less than 10 yds,while i was wearing street cloths and being very still

 If you don't move you really don't need Camo.

Howdy,  I think camo has become a "fashion statement" and entirely overdone.  I mean really, trademarked camo designs on all sorts of things.   If you're going to rely on a GPS unit do you really want it camouflaged so you'll have the greatest possible trouble finding it again after you set it down in the excitement of a hunt, or even if it just got misplaced during your rest stop 22 miles from anywhere?   At the range I frequent, there is a fashion divide between most of the traditional and primitive crowd and the compound shooters.   Use of camo is very understated among the traditional crowd and never seen on the primitive shooters.
I attended a Halloween party this year dressed in camo, wearing binoculars and carrying a compound bow.  Other archers (all wooden bow shooters) agreed that it was the scariest costume there and then told me to never be seen carrying that thing again.
