How Did They Do That??

The cover photo, two (2) guys, a dead deer and not one piece of camo to be seen. How did they kill it?

It must have died of natural causes.

Sitting in a box most likely.

I think I know the answer, the poor deer had severe Glaucoma and his medical marijuana card had expired. just my

When you can become an effective hunter, you don't need no camo.

But then you won't know what saw you first and slipped off without you ever seeing it. I'm still betting on sitting in a box.

Same way most of us. Via the Passenger seat of Pick up or SxS

yes but if your door handle doesn't work you better have strong tires as you jerk the steering wheel to the left, to give a greater field of view and rifle maneuverability from left side drivers window

I bet they shot it with a 6.5 Gaymoor too

I need to meet up with you one of these days and buy you lunch, I laugh every time you say that Your truly a dedicated hater of that round and I can respect that

People have been killing deer from a truck since the beginning of time

Photoshop I'm surprised they didnt have a pic of a black panther in it too.

I am wondering why one wouldn't want to wear camo?

Why wear camo in Brookshires?

That's hurtful I own 3 of them, but never take them where people can see them.

Some folks like to make sport of others who do. Those folks have likely never hunted deer with a longbow.

Anyone can blast a deer from 100 yard out. You don’t need camo for that.

10 yards is an entirely different matter.

Contrary to what many believe and camo companies would want you to believe camo is not a requirement to kill critters.

One of my favorite most successful camo patterns though was a gray shirt that matched the seats in the truck almost exactly aka Bobo the Clown style hunting.

I have killed deer with a recurve bow at 8 and 10 yards before I owned any camo one from a couple boards in a tree between a couple limbs as a stand the other I watched her bed down in a cutover in a light mist, slipped in to 8 yards and shot her in her bed, again before I owned camo. I have sat at the base of a tree wearing the old green coveralls with a blaze orange hat and vest to be legal and had deer within arms reach and killed quite a few that way inside 20 yards with a rifle. I have had turkeys within arms reach as well with the same clothing during deer season. Almost forgot the button buck I backhanded on the nose one morning he was so close but youngster probably had never encountered a person.

My guess the one on the cover photo though was killed from blind or truck. in either you are hiding most of the camo and it generally doesn't match the pattern of the inside of a blind or truck most of the time.

It’s not mandatory but I do believe it helps ( certain patterns at least). Being still always trumps a camo pattern however. Many traditional bow hunters to this day eschew camo in favor of darker plaid.

Most predators in nature are tawny and drab with many wearing camouflage, like leopards, tigers and jaguars. You’ll never see a predator with a bright colored coat. Even birds of prey are drab compared to other birds.

My favorite pattern is the old ASAT, which you can hardly find anymore. Vuni is very similar but not an exact match.


But, in Texas we have all the camo cowboys in head to toe Kuiu when they are sitting in a truck or box blind. And on that I agree is pretty pointless.

Ever hear of Chuck Adams? Don't know that he wore anything but jeans and a plaid shirt.

I know people that changeout camo every year having to have the latest pattern from their favorite brand. Seems a big waste of money to me but hey it is their money not mine.

He wore/wears camo.

But he’s a very accomplished Bowhunter and was widely successful when we didn’t have half the archery technology we have today.

Paul Schafer is another one, his exploits are unbelievable

you have ever drove a tractor or combine in a bean or cornfield? you can kill ringneck pheasant, quail, deer you name it with a 22 revolver. no camo.

Nobody said cam does not work. Less experienced hunters just need it.

Then again, who knows what you're not seeing by not wearing it? I do admit that insurance salesman are the most gangster animals in the woods though

Got that right. Death follows me.

My biggest problem is I dropped my Camo knife and can't see it.

I’ve been looking for one of those since about 1986. I’ll find it. I’m sure of it.

Yep

Don't get a camo phone case and accidentally drop it in the woods... sharing for a friend...

"Ok, call now."

My day pack isn’t camo.

Hunting a deer with a rifle IMO camo is not necessary. On the other hand, stalking through the mountains of New Mexico in the Gila national forest for elk then camo has its place.

I could really care less what a hunter wears while they are hunting -

notice the custom wrapped rangefinder… one could say I have a similar issue


Just for you STXranchmam

yes just wait until it snows, pheasants stand out in the cut corn and milo fields. Good dog and you dont even have to get out of the truck. Sad day when the Game warden took our 22 away.

Oh come on now...Muddy Girl is technically camo.

I’d rock me some Muddy Girl.

Christmas is only a week away…

I remember sending you a tracker tag but it got lost in the mail.

No Camo.......

Notice in the early 1900's hunting photos, they all wore a tie and were dressed up?

Camo when I started hunting was a green shirt in the spring and summer and brown in the fall and winter.

When you live, work and hunt on your ranch every day, besides not getting made by sharp eyed animals like coyotes, it doesn’t look dirty as easy as solid colors do. Camo is my retirement uniform.

I'm retired and wear camo cargo shorts every day.

Heck yeah! I'd do that but I have too much green briar for shorts.

all whom wander are not lost….. they are just looking for theirs keys. Range is a little limited though

You ever have summer duck.

Market gunning paid well

A tie is just a leash your master cut, because he knows you ain't going nowhere.

i just realized I miss quoted the movie- ….Mr. Judge, you must never et Summer Duck….Judge- case dismissed

Y'all got this all wrong. The two dudes are simply photo bombing... you don't see the dude that killed the deer who is in camo.

I found another pic in my grandads stuff.

Getting ready to hunt rocking the camo.
