Nice pig
I'd say 10 time out of 10 times camo isn't necessary when in a blind. Bow hunting from a tree or tripod different story. I think most hunters wear camo bc it's comfortable and they don't care if it gets dirty.

That's a great idea on the super glue. It was funny because we've got a ton of pictures of a pig just laying down while all the others are eating. One time it was literally on top of the corn pile acting like it was all hers! Kind of comical at times. I wanted the video of it BAD! Oh well, at least I got some pics!
The whole thing with camo was kind of a joke seeing as how I just ran out there the way I was and the last 3 times I went I got nothing. Yes, it's absolutely necessary in most situations. I guess the humor got lost in typing!

Nice Hog. I usually wear camo just because I typically buy it cheap at the 2nd hand store,and if I get blood stains on it I don't really care.

der Teufel is right, who cares if it is dirty or has blood stains!

The first hundred years or so of my hunting career I wore jeans and a red & black plaid shirt. When I hunted Colorado, Utah and New Mexico, where they had regulations that specified a certain number of square inches of International Orange material had to be worn, that's what I wore. Always got my deer, even without camo. Now, hunting coyotes, bobcats and foxes, particularly when you're setting up and calling at ground level, breaking up your silhouette is more important. I've also found that camo is a good choice when going after pronghorns; the dudes have some fabulous eyesight, and the wide-open country they inhabit don't offer a whole lot of places for the hunter to hide out. Blending into the background when turkey hunting also improves your chances, since they have some pretty sharp eyesight.
