Camo is over rated. If you feel like you really need it, try Predator or ASAT. If you're going to wear camo, you might as well wear something that works.

I'm a Brush Country fan. Didn't realize they were a Texas company. I've found it at HEB for really cheap before.

Cabela's Open Country or Mossy Oak Brush. But, more realistically, whatever is on sale at Academy.
I found the PERFECT upland shirt at Cabelas but it ran $70+tax... academy has a cheaper and cheaper constructed version for $20... guess which one I got.

I wear woodland or desert military surplus BDUs. They're cheap and durable.

Cheap and good, in the DFW area, try Wall's factory outlet. It's on Risinger, off I-35W south. Risinger is about 2-3 miles south of 820 and I-20 on I-35W south. Go about 3/4 mile west on Risinger to a big warehouse. I've had good luck with them. Call ahead for store hours.

Check Ebay too. I have bought some nice scentblocker clothes in the past relatively cheap. I'd take into consideration where you will be hunting and try to match the surrounding patterns. In example I typically wear brush country in South TX, Mossy Oak infinity while bow hunting or realtree HD.

Ive killed more deer in khaki jeans and a dark green t shirt than on full camo. If you are hunting from a blind. Don't bother. If you hunt from a tree stand, any realistic camo from academy or walmart will do just fine.

I'm a eBay fan for hunting clothes. I don't really wear camo mostly old school wool plaid but in warm weather I have some kind of bug suit that's net I put over shorts that's about it.

I grabbed some Cedar Country Camo this year. I really like their pattern and it is a very well made product. They have what I look for - heavy cloth material and extra stitching in the stress points.

I kinda like the open patterns and lighter colors more and more. I don't hunt blinds and usually wear brown jeans and an earth tone or Mossy Oak Brush or Break up shirt. As I get older I feel less and less need for camo. Still like it but I find myself wishing I could get the superfabric clothing in plain earth tones instead of the latest whiz-bang camo pattern.

Brush country is a great camo for almost any region of the state. Another really good one is Multicam. It is now being used by the military and can be found kn some pretty high quality pieces. But then again unless I am predator hunting in the daytime, bowhunting, or something else in the wide open I prefer jeans.
