Home Forums Birds & Dogs Turkey Hunting Your favorite and least favorite camo

I don't doubt what you're saying, but do you think the outline of our body tips them off to our presence? I do. I think movement and not properly breaking-up the outline of our body alerts more game, than the type of camo we're not wearing.

I've been in treestands, 15-20' off the ground, full camo, sitting still and without catching my scent, I've had deer look directly up into the tree at me. I assume it seen a "mass" among the vertical lines of the trees. On the flip-side of the coin, I've had deer walk past me without ever knowing I was there.

My apologies to the OP for the slight thread hijack.

Around our area, German Flecktarn and British DPM do about as well as anything.

I don't pay attention too much to camo. I use it, but I don't jones on it.

Here are a couple of pics of my camo from different years. I leave it to y'all to figure out what's what:





Least favorite camo? Anything that isn't on close-out, doesn't come from the bargain bin, or ga;rage sale.

Whatever I fish out of the footlocker, still have lots of gear left from 32 years in the Guard. When I buy commercial camo its a long sleeve t-shirt with chest pocket for warm days, then I take whatever they have usually not much variety to pick from, Walls, Browning, Mossy Oak, etc.
