    Which one do you prefer/like best? Which is your favorite camo pattern?

    I like realtree better, my favorite pattern being hardwoods.

    If I had to choose between those two then it would be Realtree Hardwoods. But I prefer predator and don't see myself going back.

    Between the two, I like Realtree AP, but as stated, I prefer other brands, Ultimate Camo, ASAT, And hopefully in the near future a Predator outfit.

    I like realtree better and use the AP line. I like how there are more browns used as the fall in Indiana is very brown.
    Mossy oak is a lot of green, too much for my location.

    I am really liking lost camo. The pattern works very well for the Indiana fall.
    That said, I'd like to see predator also, a local shop finally has some in so I may buy a piece to check it out.

    I'm glad to see pretty much everyone said realtree. I hate mossy oak. That's why I think I might switch to a Hoyt bow this year - because PSE bows are mossy oak breakup. IMO mossy oak looks like cat diarrhea or something.

    Take a look at Predator before you bite the bullet.

    I wear Realtree early season and Mossy Oak Tree stand for later on. If you have good cover I don't think it makes a difference what kind you wear :D

    that is the down side of wearing real tree.....you don't get to use it very often because you always fill your tags so quickly because real tree camouflage is
    THAT effective.:wave::rolleyes:

    Heck, the old timers used to do it in flannel and other non-camo clothing
