Well I am making a switch for next year. For years I hunted using Mossy oak next year I will be changing to ASAT. What do you all use?
ASAT. Good call!
I like Realtree AP myself. Its not dark and its a pretty open pattern for what they have had in the past and seems to blend most everywhere.
Depends. ASAT is good. So is Predator. I liked MO full foliage in its day. Lately i use plaid as much as "camo.
:dunno:
asat
Plaid or leafy suit.
Trying a leafy suit this year
Plaid
Predator Fall Brown or Grey, or whatever is clean.
Toad-a-flage or plaid. ASAT is great stuff too!
Blowdown, Predator, and Visas.
Natural gear. Dont think anything blends in better
ASAT
Predator Spring Green.
I guess I like them all. I don't think I have two that match. :)
outfitter camo :thumbsup:
Plaid -If it aint broke dont fix it
Partial to the Predator patterns
ASAT I am a believer in it, now using it for 4 years will never use anything else. Wait until you have deer look at you, on the ground from twenty yards and look away like you are invisible. Numerous instances have convinced me.
A.S.A.T. when I do camo up.
A few weeks ago I took about 2/3's of 15 years worth of all kinds of camo clothing to GoodWill.
Over the past two years I've converted to all Sitka Gear. Fit, design, and material are the main draws for me. I also like the pattern (Forest patter).
I like predator brown deception, or APG Realtree.
Pretty new on the scene is Ultimate Camo. In a tree stand or on the ground sitting against a tree....you just disappear.
Woodsy Asbell wool plaids!
Sitka forest and cabelas outfitter camo.
The original Predators (Spring Green, Fall Brown, Fall Grey). ASAT would be second.
Whatever is on sale! Prefer plaids.
Predator or ASAT usually mixed with Plaid.
look at the colour of the animals you are hunting and see how well they dissapear.
all browns, greys and black. no greens or oak leaf patterns etc.
second to a ghillie suit- ASAt leafy suit is trhe only way to go in my opinion. i watched a video of two guys walking down a slash together- one in mossy oak one in asat- thats what sold me- the mossy oak stood out like a sore thumb.
once,i stalked up on three bucks on the top of an open knoll, from 300 yards down to 80 yards- moving when they werent looking- until a lone buck lying hidden bust me. i sank slowly to a kneeling position. all the bucks left their grazing and followed the open trail out of there- which took them about 25 yards past me. they all eyed me- but couldnt figure me out- and just walked on past- that sold me on asat leafy suits.
most camos nowdays seem best designed to catch the hunters more than anything else!!
Plaid works great for me.
layers of different shades and patterns, ASAT, Nat Gear, several Day One items . Wool plaids. KoM. ASAT leafy suit. It all depends on what I'm hunting, where I'm hunting and how I'm going to hunt.
I wish I lived in the town that all that stuff was taken to Goodwill!!!
I like plaid.
predator and plaid
I used to really like the original SkyLine Apparition. But it is tough to find now days and they have changed it. Now its Natural Gear or brown wool
I love my ASAT 3d leafy suit. Will be getting some KUIU Vias for mountain hunting. I bought some Natural Gear with the windstop fleece as a layering layer, and its very warm.
Predator and mute plaids.
Predator Fall Brown or Grey but the material may be more important than the pattern on it. In that case, anything wool is my favorite followed my saddle cloth or whatever brand name for synthetic material.

Cabelas Outfitter or ASAT
Im sure there are many great choices but King of the mountain garments are my favorite for not only warmth, but the camo will make you disappear.
This is years of experience talking.

Skyline Apperation, or outfitters. My hunting friends never see me . So I think it works somewhat
After reading these glad I am making the choice to ASAT. Showed my boss some pics of it and he is changeing over to it also. Showed him a Predator jacket I had in my truck and he liked it.
Military Eastern Woodland still works for most of the season here.
Cabelas outfitter fleece in outfitter camo
Whatever was on sale at Walmart at the end of last season.
Predator
ASAT, Predator (most patterns), Kuiu Vias and Verde, Max-1, Mothwing Mountain Mimicry, Cabela's Outfitter and Open Country, Mossy Oak Treestand, Optifade Forest and Open Country. Each of them is great depending on the surroundings. My favorites overall are the contrasting, open patterns from ASAT, Predator and Kuiu. Nothing is as good as a ghille suit, with a leafy suit close behind. Almost every modern pattern can be very effective in the right surroundings, but the conditions where that happens can be VERY limited for some patterns. Dark, non-contrasting patterns tend to "blob" except when the background is dark and fairly uniform, like tree trunks and heavy bushes.

ASAT

Me Too ha! If I had to pick one pattern though I would say the Original Realtree.
Most of my stuff is realtree AP because it's easy to match across different clothing lines. I really like the sitka patterns I just can't afford to spend the money on it.
Since '86 it's been ASAT. Early season I like using a Sticks 'N Limbs top because of the heavy foilage. I also like my Brown Woodland Camo....on the ground, use anything with brown.

If hunting turkeys I like some kind of camo, really believe the stuff works. Over the last few years it has been Sitka Gear, the early stuff, that I am pretty sure says mothwing and mountain mimicary on the clothes. If hunting deer or other non avian species, it dont matter. Camo, plaids, etc. I am truely convinced that a tree with good cover to break up outline and correct movements at correct times are way more important than a camo pattern. From Mid Oct till jan 6 500 square inches of hunter orange is required in TN when muzzle loader and big gun season is going on. I kill more deer with a recurve wearing blaze orange than it seems I do in early season not wearing it. The only thing I dont like about wearing blaze orange is if hunting in areas with turkeys it can be detrimental.
I like 5.11 multicam. for southern whitetails. Hadn't tried it on turkeys yet. I have always used Obsession for them but I am going to try the MultiCam this spring. It won't take long to see if it works. Them turks will let you know quickly.
I like the first Realtree Hardwoods. It was very open, dull and wasn't "hi-def"
Going to Great lakes outdoors to buy some ASAT tomorrow. They are listed as a dealer in my area.
Predator camo in Spring Green, Fall Gray and the discontinued Fall Brown patterns.
Natural Gear
Winona camo used to be my favorite. Now it's Predator or Asat.
Old school WW II pattern. I think it's as good as any, ESP on the ground.
I do also wear ASAT!
Went to buy some ASAT this weekend after looking on thier site and found a dealer. Drove to Middlefield about 45 min. ride to find out they don't carry it. Good thing I had other thing to do in that area. I hate buying on the web. I like to handle something before I buy.
ASAT leafy suit.Critters don't seem to notice me.
The Predator Deception Camo fools the Turkeys eyes every time, if it works on them, it'll work on any other animal in the woods!
ASAT.
I usually wear plaid, but if I could I would love a set of the old WWII/Fred Bear camo.
(Predator) winter gray this time of year & spring green in the early seasons.
I'm usually mix & match, but on this day, match
