Easy question,

What's your favorite camo pattern for fall hunting, what do you hunt with it, and what does the land look like where you hunt?

Vias camo, made so game cannot see you not so it looks good so humans will purchase.

my favorite is Natural Gear, but unfortunately the quality of the clothing it comes on is not the best, so I like the Max 1 camo, I hunt everything from cottonwood filled river bottoms to pine forests in the moutains and above treeline alpine settings. I think the Natural Gear is really good in the cottonwoods

Various bows, but if you see me shooting, it's probably a Toelke in my hand!

I like natgear as well but use a lot of military surplus I can find it cheap and when the leaves are off theres lots of gray around. Also since I'm colorblind I've foundthat this is tougher to spot than most other patterns.

The old Mossy Oak Treestand. I wish they would make it again. I mostly wear Asbell plaids these days.

Predator is my favorite. I like the older stuff, not the seclusion.

For this time of year I like Bottomland Rock-o-flage (a light, neutral camo) to blend into the leaves when ground/still hunting and Mossy Oak Break-up (closer to maple bark) when in a treestand.

   

 

When it gets colder - Shadow plaid wool.

I like high contrast patterns cause they don't run together and make you a big dark blob from far away.  From November onward I love my Asbell evening stand green pullover mixed with surplus pants and various Realtree or APG trimmings.  I also just picked up a real neat looking zip up hoodie with a high contrast camo type pattern at of all places Target.  There's no rule you can't invent your own system, no need to be Realtree'd from head to toe.  The critters can get just as dead if you shoot em looking like a fashion disaster hahaha.

Can't get it any longer. Sold through Gander, not sure of brand, but pattern was "Pine Tree". worked great here in the south.  Love my plaid these days.

I have been on the ground with the wind in my favor and had deer walk right past me and I swear never see me. Mostly deception and fall grey..

I'm alittle odd... Never really concerned myself with patterns.....

As a matter of fact, I seem do have just as much luck wearing solid "earth toned" hunting clothes,LOL!!!

Yesterday I played Hide & Peek with a young 4 pointer at about 20 yds. I was wearing Realtree camo jeans, a solid Olive Green sweater and a brown hat. He was feeding his way toward me wearing nothing but his Brown winter coat(I never saw him either,LOL) when I decided to stand up & stretch... When I stood up,his head popped up!!!!! It was a staredown for quite awhile,LMAO!!!!! The wind was right in my face & he couldn't smell me. However... He DID see me MOVE and he knew it!!! Finaly, after about a half hour, he decided that he'd probly better take another route, and moved on.

I get most of my hunting clothes from the GoodWill store. A good solid color "earth toned" 100% wol sweater usualy costs me $3 or $4. I've also found wool hunting jackets for $10-$15.

Nothing wrong with "solid" colors, and I've never had a problem with camo that "blobs" either!!! As a matter of fact, I took a picture of my son Tyler, sleeping in our Stone Circle ground blind, with his back against a stone wall... He was wearing Realtree/Mossyoak whatever, and if it wasn't for the Blaze Orange & Chartruse fletching on his arrows... You would never be able to make him out!!!!!
I only shoot WOOD arrows... My kid makes them, fast as I can break them!

There is a fine line between Hunting, & Sitting there looking Stupid...

May The Great Spirit Guide Your Arrows..... Happy Hunting!!!
