    Where do you get your black clothing and accessories? I just checked BPS and they only had one black to choose from. I would like to get 3/4 mask and some bowhunting gloves, etc. Any help would be appreciated.

    I'll just be wearing a long sleeve black tee or hoodie from target or wal mart or anywhere. It doesn't take anything special.

    Thats got to be a little chilly during deer season! :D

    Yeah I have a black fleece jacket that I wear over my hunting clothes during deer season. But I am having trouble finding a good mask so I can feel my anchor point and some gloves. Does anyone make a black bowhunting glove?

    Oh I disagree with that one if you are not shooting through mesh. On more than one occasion this past season I had a deer enter the food plot then glance to see if I was in my blind. The inside of the ground blind is black so I want to blend in.

    i put the mesh down, i got bit in the a$$ by the net once and vowed never to do it again, so i put it down as soon as i get in. i would wear some real dark brown cheapo gloves, they are soft an not really sturdy but covered my hands. i'd cut the index finger off though, i like to feel the trigger on my release

    The scentlock masks are usually black or very dark in the inside.

    I went to UnderArmour's website and ordered their tactical heat gear clothing for my antelope hunt last year... Extremely nice stuff, and very thin for the early season.

    If I were going to blind hunt in the later season (i.e., colder...), I'd wear my black Scentblocker stuff.

    I wear a black redhead enduraskin mask and gloves.
    Any dark black, blue, brown, or olive green jacket will work perfectly in the interior of a ground blind.
    Face and hands are most important though.

    You should always wear black in a black lined blind. I just went and bought some black material for a face mask, a black hooded sweatshirt, and black t-shirt for when it's warm. You don't need black bottoms just cover your upper body and hands.

    That's what I use for a mask. Just turn it inside out and you have your black facemask.

    I have a black sweatshirt I wear over all my other clothes, and also an all black stocking cap if it's cold out. For gloves, I just use a regular pair of black gloves.
