Folks have the newest line of camo with the newest scent prevention and sit in a box blind 100-150 yds from the feeder? Just curious...

i sure dont have the newest stuff, but as i was packing a min ago, i pulled down what i thought were my coveralls.... and realized that it was BIBS!!!! i was excited... completely forgotr that i had bough these last spring for like 25 bucks or somehting... usually like 80...
btw, i dont hunt in a blind... spot and stalk all day....and i really dont think camo makes much difference. brown is a pretty good camo where i hunt

u have some camo shirts and i wear them because the blood doesn't stain them, but i also have quite a few hunting shirts that arn't camo.
dosen't matter to me, unless i'm predator hunting then i will put in some extra effort to hide, my hunting attire is snakeboots,jeans,shirt and hat.
killed alot of deer wearing this, see no reason to change

I've seen no less than a hunert 4x4's with trailers loaded with 4 wheelers and utv's pass through Jacksboro today. No problem with that at all, but it's funny to see some of the dudes in full camo driving to lease. I guess it's just something we do as men, but it's funny as hell if you sit and think about it.

If your in Jacksboro at 445 am tomorrow, you will see me going through there too, only I wont be in camo. I just wear my ol brown Carhart bibs and coat if its cold enough for them.

I've seen no less than a hunert 4x4's with trailers loaded with 4 wheelers and utv's pass through Jacksboro today. . it cracks me up to see a 4x4 with big mud tires pulling a mule or a ATV. this time of the year it isn't bad, but why would you ride out on a cold morning on a 4 wheeler when you can take your truck?

I'm good for jeans and some sort of T-shirt. I wear camo sometimes because it doesn't show blood stains as bad. I don't worry about scent blocker or anything like that.

Living in a small town such as mine, it's like clock work every year. During dove season, you can always spot the out of towners' by the fact that they are covered in camo, hauling four wheelers with dog boxes mounted onto them, bright orange hats ect.
Same thing with deer season, they are camo'd out with whatever high dollar pattern that happens to be hot that year, under armor shirts that are skin tight, all that stuff.
I don't wear camo, my dog has never worn a collar or been in a kennel, heck, he eats his dog food off a concrete porch. He's the best bird dog I ever had.
I've never worn camo deer hunting, or used scent killer. I've gone hunting pleanty of times in clothes that I wore the night before and got hammered drunk in. Deer have never seemed to mind.

More like 75 yds. from the feeder. I can't quite shoot my bow that far.  So I set up around 20 or so to my feeder. No camo, just blue jeans and a dark shirt.

I wear camo most of the time deer hunting, but I don't stay in a box blind all the time either... And I have a nice 4x4 truck so I carry my four wheeler in it to go places that I am smart enough to not take my truck.
I also don't give a rats tail about what the other guy is wearing.

Depending on the weather, if its cold i wear my carhart bib overall's and my Danners, if its warm like most opening weekends, i wear my normal colthes, wranglers, short sleave shirt and my eveyday boots.
Only go full camo when im bowhunting, or in a tripod.

In retrospect, I've spent a bunch of money on scents, camo, deer attractants, doe pee, and a bunch of other stuff I didn't need. I quit watch hunting and fishing shows cause they turned into nothing more than Infomercials. I think I shot more deer when I hunted in jeans and a sweat shirt and sat on a board in a tree.

I wear camo when it's cold because that's what my heavy coat is. Other than that it's whatever t-shirt I happen to be wearing, blue jeans, square toe boots, and a A&M hat. And I've never used any type of scent blocker in my life
