I grew my beard 25        years ago for camo(brown)     , do I/you camo the beard(and how) or wait till snow hunting       .

Not 50 yet but plenty ....well mostly white    :(  No camo

no.

I did before, a few times.  It really isn't worth it though.  Deer have white on them and we still can't see them in time.

There's shrubbery that looks like my beard, isn't there?  I purposely grew it that way because it looks like a sage bush I saw one time.  A stripe of black across the nose and I should be good to go!

 

Mine's white. I figure I look like a really wide bush growing behind a white birch.

Bahahahaha    I the air force wont let me have a beard but try sticken leaves and grass in it like military snipers do to the ghilie suits.

I'm 45 and the goatee is finally PREDOMINANTLY grey.   There is no way I would color it... A couple of stripes of black war paint across the cheeks and forehead and I'm ready for hunting!   Besides, the Bible (Proverbs) says that hoary hair (grey/white) is a blessed thing... No sense in hiding what's natural and a blessing from God!

sometimes folks find things to worry about...that really arent something that matters...IMHO..

there is a whole culture out there that thinks we need camo everything...I think it has more to do with selling this years newest camo pattern than anything else...those outdoor shows are getting out of control...too many uncle bubbas for me...

of course there are silly things you could wear...but I have killed plenty of big game with my recurve wearing my blue jeans and a flannel shirt...

I did "black out " my eyes ...and even wear a head net a few times when I couldnt get my stand up over 12 feet...

picking the wind and stand...sitting still...and taking that first shot are still the bowhunters best friend...

Not much white yet. I'm 54 and the head is getting quite grey, but the beard is still predominately dark. Copper defficientcy causes grey hair.

I consider it the Grey fox look.

that's a good one Bladepeek      

Im not fifty till next year, but I may have quit growing one cause it's getting so white!

Most are not that white.  I don't think it is a problem unless you have a big old white St. Nick one. Then you better stay out of the woods in gun season.

for turkey I wear a face mask. for deer I do not.

I don't think Ron La Clair, camos his beard.

EXACTLY what came to my mind!  

Mine has been said to look like a heavy frost on a cow turd. It's been thru an awful lot without having to put up with camo on it.

all depend on the bird i'll be hunting    

My is white also, I always where a face mask.
