Where is everyone shopping besides the predator site for their camo ? What is your fav pattern. Already got one piece of Gray Wolf Woolens in Fall Grey, and WOW !
Not sure if Spring Green is best for early Archery in a treestand or not ? What is your opinion on ASAT versus Predator ? I noticed that ASAT said they use no green in their camo cause critters are all brown ???
We hunt out of treestands in hardwoods. Since looking at my son 35 yds away in a tree in the Fall Grey I can see how the lighter camo breaks your outline. When he looked back toward me he said my Mossy Oak looked too dark and blobby, no broken human outline. Thanks for everyone's help and opinion.

Nocams , I sent you an email , as I say I can't find them in any store so I buy online , good luck , Fred
Jimmy, I've got the spring green and the green revolution and I think the spring green is the better of the two. I also like the brown deception. But all their patterns are awesome.
As far as buying it, like Greyfox said you'll probably have to buy it online. See ya at the banquet.

Thanks guys, keep it coming.....

I bought all of my Predator camo at the archery pro shop where I used to practice. The pro shop went out of business, but before it did, I bought lots of my favorite patterns including Spring Green Fall Gray and the now discontinued Fall Brown. I like Fall Brown much better than Brown Deception.
Any of you Georgia boys know about the BowHunters Supply Store in Carrolton, GA ? They show lots of it on *bay, just wondering if anyone had visited their store in person ? Thanks for all the replies and help thus far, keep it coming.

Thanks for this info, I ordered some Predator from Sam yesterday evening! I'll let ya'll know how this works out!!!
You're welcome...my transaction with him went flawless.
I agree with the next post by whip!
I've been wearing Predator for years now, and really believe in it. Personally, I prefer the fall brown and think it is the best all around pattern. Spring green is great in the spring for turkeys and in the early fall.
As far as the animals go, I think it all works great. Large patterns really helps to break up the human outline, and that is the most important element of camo. I can't tell you how many times I have had animals look directly at me and after studying for a bit, just go back about their business.
Gray Wolf has great Predator clothing. The wool is marvelous of course, as is the Wolfskin fabric. But he also carries fleece and regular cotton in many of the patterns as well. Best of all, he is a Trad Gang sponsor! :thumbsup:
sorry for the double post....
Day One Camouflage...
MikeW and fireman,
Thanks for turning me on to Sam, sent him a email and waiting for a reply now.
Whip,
Yep, Jeff @ GWW is a great guy ! He sent me a sample pack of his wool in FG. I will be getting some GWW soon. Was lucky enough to score a used GWW bomber jacket for my son in FG and when looking at him 30yds away in a tree he was a ghost !

Predator camo is great! We wear the Spring Green for turkeys and up until the leaves turn brown. Spring Green is absolutely invisible in a tree stand in early season and on the ground. We even wear SG when the leaves turn brown. Fall Brown (Day one and Hidden Wolf) is great for when the leaves turn brown and is invisible when the leaves fall if you're hunting on the ground. Fall Grey, as you've found out, is great for late season or when there's snow on the ground. We have some of the new Brown Deception and it's ok, imo, not as good as the others. I sold my ASAT.

I love predator camo. I would love to find it in a light wool.
Victory at Last !
Just bought four long sleeve T's and a pair of pants in Fall Grey from Sam. What a great guy and pleasure to do biz with ! He is in the corner of Virginia close to Bristol, TN. Told him all about tradgang and that he needed to come on over to the trad side of things. He does most of his biz over on Archery Talk.
He also told me about the new 380 gram fleece that Predator will have this spring / summer. Coat will be about $80 and has windshear in it too !!! Unfortunately the pants will not have the lining ??? What was Predator thinking ? Hopefully , they will change their mind before the garments are built.
Sam, if you are reading this thanks again ! Your business will go far if you treat everyone like you did me.
nocams :clapper:
The 380 gram Fleece Jacket has been out for a while now, I wore mine all last season and love it! Are they coming out with something different in the Fleece??
I think the older fleece did not have the lining and was not available in FG color ??? Not sure ?
nocams
Maybe, I have the Brown Deception in the Fleece with the 380gr of insulation, picked it up for $79.00 shipped! Green Deception would be cool for the fleece!
ttt for my new friend Sam !
nocams
Hey everybody!! Thanks for the good words from the guys that bought camo from me! The fleece jackets have been out for a couple of years but have not been offered in Fall Grey till this year. They do offer the Deception Green and Brown in these jackets as of right now, and the FG should be available in spring/summer. All fleece jackets and vests have the wind barrier and 380gram weight fleece!!
There will also be some nice insulated, water proof warpknit parka and bibs this year too in FG and Deception Brown!!
Sam
Sam,
Welcome to tradgang ! Glad you took my advice and joined up with the best group of folks I have ever been around. As soon as the Fall Grey Fleece with windshear is available drop me a line. I hope Predator will change their mind and add the windshear to the pants.
nocams
Jimmy, why aren't you working??? :) I got Predator for Christmas and love it...Hunted in Texas with very high winds and it was great....Call me Jimmy....Don
Just heard from Predator direct. They will be offering the 380gr fleece with a wind lining in both pants and coats in Fall Grey. They will also offer accessory items like fleece beenies and facemasks in Fall Grey as well. All of this should be out this summer. I am changing as much of my camo out to FG as possible. I am a believer now in the FG pattern after waking up and really taking a good look at it in the real world. All it took was a few hunts looking at Mason 30 yds away in sun and cloudy days both in FG and Mossy Oak. No comparison !

Just love Predator camo...was hoping to see some insulated fleece pants come out this year...I will be on the look out for them.
I had the demo fleece pants in my hand last month at the ATA show and there nice!! Now that they've deceided to put the wind barrier in them like there jackets.....well, all's I got to say is look out for a great pants/jacket combo!!! I think its what we've all been waiting for!!
Sam,
Any chance of some lined fleece bibs being added to the line this year.
Looking forward to seeing the pants!
My fleece jacket is great but it sure does get a lot of burrs, I couldn't imagine wearing the fleece pants. Sure would like to see some insulated bucksuede pants!
What is the "warp knit" fabic like they use in the insulated parkas and bibs? Is it quiet?
the warp knit material is quiet, low nap. windproof. waterproof. It will be some nice stuff!!
Chris, haven't heard of any fleece bibs!!
I recieved my order from Sam today!!! Everything is as described, and it all fits!!! I got the Archers Jacket, a long sleeve T, jersey gloves, all in Spring Green, and a fleece zip up jacket, and fleece beanie, in Deception brown, don't guess it was offered in fall brown. TTT for Sam!!!!!
Sam,
Ours arrived today and everything fits great. Thanks for the great service ! We got long sleeve T's and 6 pocket pants for early bow season next year. Sure do like that Fall Grey color. If it turns out to possibly be the wrong color for the first month of bow, then we will order some Spring Green to go along with this.
nocams :campfire:
Glad you like it guys!! can't wait for the new stuff to get here!!! everybodys excited about the fleece pants, including me!!
