Title: Normal ASAT camo vs 3d ASAT leafy suit
Post by: twostrings on October 01, 2011, 10:50:00 PM

I'm about to order the 3D suit, but before I did, I thought I'd make sure it was better than their normal camo. What's your experience been?

Thanks,
mh

It is very effective.  I ordered mine big enough to go over anything I might wear so when I am hunting in warm weather it is almost like wearing a long coat and presents a very irregular outline.  Kind of like a Ghillie suit but not that extreme.

I was in a natural blind last year and had just arrived. I looked to my left and noticed some deer about 75 yards away doing the head bob at me.
They look away for just enough time for me to get my ASAT leafy face mask on. The next time the deer looked over in my direction it was like the lost what they were looking for. And 20 minutes later the walked within 5 yards of me.

hope that helps

I think it is the best thing available for hiding in plain sight, short of a full ghillie suit.  I've had deer inside of 10 yards several times while sitting on a low seat.  It is amazing to hear the "crunch" of the acorn they are chewing, see their eyelashes as they blink, and realize they don't "see" you at all.

Still need to hold still, but it works very well, and just seems to get better with age (wish I could say the same!)
