Fall Gray in a treestand when the leaves are off. The light patches blend with a gray sky and break up the outline, not so much on the ground.
Lefties are the only ones who hold the bow in the right hand.

Fall grey works great in the snow! Up close and personal.

It and camo like it are awesome when in a tree and the leaves are down.  Look up at a tree in the late fall and what do you see ?  Dark limbs and white sky.  Also works great if the trees you are in and near are Poplars or birches.

Yup

Yup, it's one of my favorites for late season, snow or no snow.

And it's also great on the tundra and in rocky areas for caribou.
May your next adventure lighten your heart, test your spirit, and nourish your soul.

Ive used predator fall for 20 years and it has always worked great ive never shot a deer over 20 yards so they come in close and half those shots were from tree stands so it worked well in any season. up or down. as far as deer go i think this is a great pattern it wouldnt matter if it was flourescent orange and yellow i think it would still work

My best harvest ever is when i used it on an accidental run in with an 8 pointer on my way home. i seen this buck up in the green soy bean field an put a open field stalk on him i never hunched down once he stopped several times to look at me and then nose to the ground munching and on his way again.i kept angling in towards him til i positioned myself for a nice 20 yard broadside shot he went about 40 yards .Ive always felt that it wasnt the colors of this camo its just a great pattern.ill be the first to tell you i missed a buck or two also ,that after i shot my first arrow ,stood there while they watched me knock another , and get em on the second try! i think stuff like mossy oak and realtree might look awesome real to a human eye but i suspect the deer just see a dark outline of a man ,the predator camo has the best break-up pattern out there in my opinion. i think the different colrs they sell dont make much if any difference.like i said its just my opinion.

I've got the gray, fall brown, and asat from Day One. The gray is my favorite, but I really have nothing bad to say about the others. Take a look at the trees, there's alot of white or should I say light opennings in those trees.

I like fall brown a bit better not as bright. I toned all my grey down just a bit with a bottle of ritt grey dye, works great.
