Thread: Camouflage?

How important is camo clothing? Hahaha, well its not the clothing that makes a hunter.
I don't have a sence of fashion either, nor do I dress to fit someone's concepts of what looks good. I've mostly worn green in some from and would say the last twenty old years the army has dressed me cheaply and it happens to be camo! but I mix up the top end abit.
It turns out pretty good for me, being involved in pest control and being up close and personal! in a day it could be rabbits or geese and now duck season, it's all been said! hands, face, movement the biggest and the Ultraviolet spectrum and there is plenty of information on that. I think the bow hunters are more aware of breaking up outline.
There was a time when it was red and blue Swanndri and that gear is still around with us today,
Gear has got lighter with the ability to take sweet away, there's all sorts of kit you can be hyped into. But what's your need for some of it? the hills are to high for me now. So I don't need a great pack, but I do need a good sleep if out hunting over night, even that's rear. 4x4 and slippers now, well almost.
What you hunt, where you hunt, may dictate what you wear. I've ran down hills to get back to camp before dark and ran smack into deer, I've crept along deer trails looking like a leaf and came on deer! Do I wear camo for deer? not really, but it does help in hunting, is my personal thought! As it covers all sort of situation you can find yourself in. That's why duck shooter's try and conceal themselves and some know nothing about ultraviolet and wonder why ducks flare up.
Did alot of goat culling they are silly, but keen eyed.
So I guess if you ask yourself the questions, which you have, but now you want some sort of sence of opinion on it.
So here it is! What was camo made for? And if you come up with disguising personnel or something, you would be right. Then the next question is disguising something, going to help you? Hope to process helps.
