    Realtree AP or APG, Mossy Oak is too dark and RealTree looks like the woods I hunt.

    Mossy Oak to me. I like that it is a little bit darker and blends in better up in the tree. If I was a hunter that hunted on the ground Realtree would probably be better as it has more of the leafy pattern.

    In all honesty, it really depends on the type of woods and area that you hunt. I've seen woods where they are nice and thick where the Mossy Oak blended in better but then I've seen woods that the Realtree seemed to blend in better. I have used both, but I feel I blend better with the Mossy Oak.

    I've got a little bit of everything. Of those two, I prefer Mossy Oak Obsession for turkey hunting and Realtree Xtra for deer hunting. I wear Natural Gear a lot too. But, I saw NOMAD Outdoor at the ATA Show. Diggin' on their gear in this pattern....

    Sitka or First Lite. Both work.

    If you're going for the pretty factor then Realtree all the way.

    I use both and like both...but really like the new green mossy oak obsession for early season and tend to go toward realtree once the leaves fall

    Generic woodland pattern camo for me. A flannel pattern works too.

    I have both as well as Predator. I really see no difference in effectiveness between any of them. If you are still and have decent cover around you I don't think camo pattern really matters very much.

    I like Realtree the best overall but LOVE Mossy Oak Treestand. I wear a lot of it late season. I have a serious problem with hunting clothes.

    I own a lot of ScentLok stuff, mainly because I think they make really high quality clothes. Not really because of the Carbon.

    My mossy oak Treestand stuff is Under Armour. They're both nice but the ScentLok is way better IMO. I just wish they offered Mossy Oak Treestand.
