I'm sure we have done this before, but as season closes in it's something to help close the time. My favorite camo pattern is treebark. I still have a short billed cap I bought when I was 6 for a whopping $3.50. also wore out several copies of bow hunting October whitetails. So what is yours?

I have a pair of camo pants I hunt in most of the time. They are older Mossy Oak Fall Foliage. My ensemble rarely ever matches though. From old army green/black to Real Tree tree bark or.... just as long as the silhouette is broken. If the good cotton, or all wool plaid was not so expensive I would prefer earth tones in that.

Anything that breaks up my outline for the terrain I'm in, and that doesn't reflect light and make noise. I've actually killed deer just as close with wool plaid on as I have with a camo pattern.
Now...a GHILLIE suit on the other hand is an entirely different story! If you don't move in one of those that's about as close to being invisible as you can get!

Anything that has gray, white or light blotches in it. Anything else blobs you out especially in a tree. The predator camo is pretty good and I change depending on the time of the season here in WI. When the leaves fall, it is mainly a snow camo pattern. Lots of times during the main part of the season, it may be a checkered flannel shirt with light grey.

I have a few different camos. Probably wear Outfitter from Cabelas the most. I have found bits and pieces in different fabrics from heavy to light over the years. Works for me. Also will wear drab solids or plaid for hunting. Not moving is the best camo.

I have a large variety of camo clothes, old school and the new stuff. I like the old school camos the best like Mossyoak Original Bottom Land, and the frog skin camo but they're hard to find sometimes. Sometimes I just wear a plaid shirt or jacket and earth tone BDU pants. I really liked the camo in the attached picture, but I don't remember what it was called, maybe illusion camo.

Faded Trebark, Advantage, and Outfitter by Cabelas. But I have lots of different patterns and as I've gotten older I wear the piece based on comfort, feel, etc. so I'm usually mixed-and-matched in my patterns.
My cold weather stuff is ASAT fleece by Day One and it's really worn fleece and muted. That fabric not reflecting sun, combined with the faded pattern is actually unbelievable. It truly just "melts" into any background.

Usually have on some forest green pants, snake boots, and a thin/vented mossy oak shirt during archery season. On cooler mornings I'll throw on a mossy oak zip fleece and a tan shemagh.

Realtree xtra grey was a good one years ago. Prairie Ghost when they were in business. I also have some Seclusion in their open country pattern, not sure if that company is in business anymore.
Those were good but once I started using ASAT the difference was clear.

I love ASAT, & was lucky enough to get it from First Lite before they discontinued it.
But i've found that the First Lite patterns-Specter, Fusion, & Cypher all work just as well. If I could only afrord 1 of these patterns, it would be Fusion-it's the most versatile, IMO...
Back in the day before I had some extra $, I made what I called "Poor Man's ASAT." I took the military 3-color desert camo BDU's & got some black & brown waterproof fabric paint, & painted the pants & jacket with "ASAT-like" curved lines...That worked too!

I have a bunch of different camo in totes in the cellar. Old school, to new school. to wool plaids.
My favorite is WIYF. You can't buy it or order, you just have to wait for it....then get out there. Amazing what you can be wearing with the "wind in your face".
Old blue jeans and a red/green plaid flannel shirt and this fellow came in close to check me out. Pretty cool.

#1 - Whatever fits
#2 - Whatever is good quality and on sale.
This year’s collection includes some pants in basically a woodland pattern, gaiters in mossy oak somethingorother, a green plaid shirt from Woolrich and a Boxcall hat. The Woolrich is a real go-to item; bought a size too big and shrank it hard so it’s extra thick.
I do like old-school Predator, especially the Fall Gray, because in black & white it seems to blend into ANYTHING, but functionality trumps everything. An Elk weighs 4- 5 times what I do, and they can disappear in their 2-tone tan/brown get-up even if everything around them is lush & green, so I don’t think patterns matter nearly as much to the animals as it does to us…
