    I don't know if this applies to all deer species, but it's worth a read.

    So from a deer hunting perspective, not covering yourself in colours that deer can see well sounds more important than the exact pattern, though if pattern helps to break up your profile a bit, that's not a bad thing.

    But most importantly, their eyesight is sensitive to movement, the same as any other animal. It's quite surprising how big and bright of an object you can casually miss provided it's not moving. And the less you look like a human, the more time you'll likely have to takea shot whilst the deer figures you out, if it does spot you.
