I made mine out of an old green colored trech coat and colored burlap.

Here's my kid putting it on as a halloween costume!

HOW can you shoot a bow when you wear this shaggy camo?   :saywhat:  

I see too much potential for Murphy's Law to rise up and kill a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Have thought about this many times...maybe I will find some answers doing a search...

Ive cut the material on my left arm and chest down so it wont tangle in the string. Ok, it does take abit of the camo effect away but not much and i wont have to worry about it any more.
