I've got a mix of mossy oak, real tree, and army fatigues. When the stuff I have now wears out I'm buying wool stuff probably in plaid. I would love to get some Kuiu or Sitka but it's way out of my price range.

I have the First Lite ASAT wool.  Great stuff, love the camo.  I will say that I don't think camo matters anymore.  I had shots at deer wearing tan carharts and an ASAT shirt.  Anymore I think I will just go with brown earthtones.

Never had the chance to wear predator or asat or natural gear. Although I've always wanted to try those. I think at the moment I like any muted natural color and plaid. Lol kinda said to heck with it a while back and have seen more game in plaid so not gonna change what dosent seem to be broke.

I really wish they brought some of that back I liked it allot also.
I'm using a mix some solids, some plaids, and lil camo. Results are the same

Predator; although I think camo is overated.

The only true camo pattern I own is a lightweight outfit I bought for turkey hunting. I think it is Realtree AP. I wear it once in awhile for very early season deer hunting, and it works well.

Usually, I wear plaids or a muted solid. I have a pair of moleskin pants and a shirt too match. They are extremely quiet, sort of an olive drab color. 90% of the time, though, I wear plaid. Either wool or cotton flannel(flannel only on hot days).

In this picture I'm wearing solid OD moleskin pants and a Timber Ghost plaid jacket. I look at camouflage as a concept, not a pattern.



Which is not to disparage commercial camouflage. I will be the first to admit that some of the better patterns (Predator seems like a great one) are worth owning. For me.....NOT wearing commercial camouflage feels more "woodsy, natural" if that makes sense. I won't say it's more of a challenge, because I don't believe it is, but it seems to fit the simplicity of traditional archery well.

ASAT 3D Leafy Suit and NatGear are all I use if I'm wearing Camo at all.  If I'm not wearing camo I have on jeans and an earth tone shirt/jacket.

I live in SE Ohio,Athens, and we have more deer on our city streets and yard than in the woods.
I counted 5 bucks in my side yard. I still hunt in the woods but come home and find deer in my driveway.

So I am going to start new camo lines:

1. Pressure Teated-Makes you blend in with your deck.

2. Roof line-Stand on your roof and shoot.

3. Best of all-Weber Grill cover-You can't grill it unless you kill it.

I think camo is useful, but overrated.  I have mossy oak and realtree stuff, but have yet to use it as I don't have a bow lol.  When growing up in Alaska, warmth was more important than color...my "hunting" coat was a Codet Olive drab/blaze orange reversible, and I wore spandex long undies and polar fleece snow pants...worked great!

Sweet, urban warfare.  I think some of the patterns they had when I first started hunting appeal to me due to nostalgia like original mossy oak even though I'm sure I look like black blob at distance as far as effectiveness hard to beat the asat and predator patterns.  Will probably be buying army surplus woodland green next time in market.  Price and effectiveness hard to beat

Depends on whether the leaves are on or off the trees, but don't much matter, I still like tiger stripe, make with rip-stop fabric.
I don't chase after the latest greatest.

I wish I could find some Predator, or some muted plaid. But being 6'6" and 340 I am at the mercy of what the chubby/tall camo companies have
