Camo Clothing in Africa
« on: March 08, 2009, 11:15:00 PM »
Alot of the older African hunting books (60's-80's), say expressly...do not bring camo clothing to hunt in, when in Africa. I know times and policies have changed. What countries in Africa can you wear camo in currently while hunting??

not much of a problem in most of the places now check with your outfitter depends in some specific areas

South Africa there is no problem, Namibia no problem, most places in zim no problem

depends where, what, and how your hunting.
if your out of a blind you could use an Ace Ventura Hawaiian shirt and not have a problem    ;)

tradtusker is right on, actually in a blind all black would be the best camo, in any case I would just avoid the all military camo patterns. I have traveled to a few places around the world where I was concerned about taking camo only to find that it was a popular local fashion trend!

British Army Camo did me just fine, with a Gray wooly shirt.
Andy next time were rocking those Trophy photos   :)  
I dont think hunting in these things will be harder then trying to find some where that sells them, lol

Hell, that looks like pretty good camo for hunting bunnies out of the flower garden.

I have had very good luck with my ASAT suit.  I have had no trouble with it in SA, azIM or Thazania. Also bring a pair of knee pads and I recommend those short gators to keep jumk out of your shoes. I prefer some sort of soft flewible shoes as well.
