Old Camo Patterns

[HuronArcher]

Here's a pattern called 3D leaf. Don't know how long it's been around. I got it in '95 and like it.  It's served me well.

Yep, Bob Fratzke's Winona shadow is tops; especially when you consider it was a soft, quiet, acrylic knit.

Camo Clan was a favorite of mine.  Both green and snow camo.

I love the old camo...because it works, and I love garage sales because thats where I find my old camo.
Ive found that the old military pattern works as well as anything, its not fancy or trendy but it works, and thats all im after when it comes to camo. [/url] [/IMG]   [/url] [/IMG]

They make other camo other than original bottomland and Treesstand? Oh, I didn't know..   Learn something new everyday
I did break down and buy some new Drake Old School Timber camo last yr. love it

i'm sold for life on ASAT and Predator.

however, i did score a full set of the old early-80's Treebark (shirt and pants) for only 8 bucks for the set! however, fat boy couldn't fit in them, so i gave them to my best hunting buddy. he was pumped.

We use a more sage color here in Nv, but I still have trebark with colored cutout leaves pinned on.  I have mil cammo from my collection that also works in open sage.  That Marine WWII cammo is still good

I really loved my Tiger Stripe camo from Viet Nam.  I finally wore it completely out a few years ago....actually, a couple decades ago!  OK! they may have shrunk a little while hanging in the closet, but, it did the trick!    :D    Horserod

Anyone have a lead on some of that old WWII camo? All I ever find is noisy water-fowling stuff...

Back in the early 80's, during winter, I'd wear a ragwool hat and brown plaid wool jacket. Some snow would stick to it in a mottled pattern and I could all but dissappear. Plus I'd stay warm.

My hunting partner would cut a poncho type hole in a green Army blanket and just sit down in the snow. He looked like a boulder and the deer walked right by him.

I'm a little surprised I only see one mention of it, back in the day it was Ranger Tiger Stripe. A little bleach in the wash and everything but the black got lighter. It was in my opinion one of the best patterns ever developed. It would not surprise me if one of the "newbies" re-created it.

Regards to all,

Not sure what this camo is called, But it seemed to be the Nam tiger stripe camo turned side ways, Vertically.  One of  the    best camos  I've ever used(the deer seemed to look    past me , as if I were a part of the tree)

[Bob T.]

Thomas , that looks like it might be Camo Clan from the 70s

[Kingsnake]

I'm definitely a fan of the Viet Nam Tiger Stripe.  Horizontal pattern blends in great in the pulp-wood pines that I hunt.

(OK . . I also watched too many episodes of Magnum P.I.)

The best I ever saw back then was mirage it seamed like I became invisible when I wore it I still have one of the two sets just don't fit anymore but cant get rid of it.   Widow

I still hunt with my Nam Tiger Stripe Camo pants and a Blouse. Best pattern I have ever used. My second favorite was the Kelly Cooper camo that Joe uses. Fits right in with Beech trees and fallen leaves.

[stagetek]

Shot a lot of deer wearing the old WWII,and Trebark patterns. Good stuff.

[Matty]

I love some of the old patterns. When I lived in NY as a kid I always wore the original tre-bark still have some goods. Same with original real tree. Out here in colorado those patterns don't work too well. And LOTS OF CRITTERS have been killed using the old military or basic camo patterns.   Don't be fooled by marketing of scent block this and charcoal infused that.

Old woodland pattern we used to use in the Army for me.
