    What’s everyone’s camo of choice? Mines realtree edge or the different patterns from redhead

    I'm a bit of an oddball when it comes to camo. Early season I use an ASAT 3D Leafy suit.

    Mid season I wear a mix. On any given day I might have Mossy Oak Breakup pants and a RealTree shirt on or vice-versa. Once it gets chilly I have a Scentblocker suit in Realtree something-or-other that I wear. Not that I put any faith in Scentblocker. My son got it for me and it works great for 40 degree and up temps.

    Late season I do have a preference. Mossy Oak Treestand. I've had does catch me moving three times wearing that pattern and when I froze they looked me up and down and then kept on doing what they were doing. They died.

    I wear whatever. I have never been one to care what matches or think it matters

    Doesn't much matter. I've got a collection of camo (RT, mossy oak, sitka, First Lite in RT, solids), I wear more for the materials (merino, poly, nylon, blends) than the pattern.

    I will wear any but I tend to lean more toward mossy oak!

    I have never heard of firstlite before. How do you like it? More of an early season pattern and material or all season type line?

    I’m a real sucker for mossy oak breakup country. Just cause I love the look of it. Not necessarily because it hides me better.

    I prefer realtree but I have mossy oak also. Camo that fits and I'm in it

    Their merino wool is top notch, and I love their new foundry pants. I will say it’s great for when you are going up and down mountains and western hunting. For tree stand hunting I think you can definitely get by with cheaper stuff. I think for western hunting you get what you pay for and clothing is a big deal with weather changes, miles of hiking, etc etc.
