I wear at least a camo shirt or jacket every time I hunt. Camo pants if I'm off the ground!

The only non-camo clothes I wear when I hunt is the black shirts I wear when in a ground blind. I guess in reality, those black shirts are "camo", appropriate for that situation!

Solid colored fabric also helps in locating ticks.

Appreciate being asked.

I often wear some form of it but don't always go head to toe in it.  I frequently have solid pants and/or plaid shirts.  When small game hunting, I usually just go in whatever I am wearing.

I wear camo most of the time when hunting, but in the last couple of years, I have been using more plaid. I don't like to wear solids, as they make you look like a big blob that stands out against a wooded background.

I wear it hunting and sometimes when I'm not hunting. I'm not one of those that thinks every piece has to match, mine don't for sure. I also don't think there's anything wrong with wearing it when you're not hunting, just casually. Of coarse I've never been accused of making a fashion statement either, lol.......

Sorry I couldn't resist.
Always when hunting, never in public. Unless I'm returning from hunting. Lots of "camo companies" make solids. I don't necessarily wear them.

Always when hunting since those clothes get sprayed down with tick spray. Never when not hunting except a camo cap.

Normally, when I'm hunting. Mostly because it's the most functional for the purpose at hand. Will wear it sometimes when I'm not hunting too. Guess I'm kinda proud to be part of "That crowd". Besides, it's my favorite color.

My outfits generally have surplus camo pants, wool plaid coats, camo hat, brown right glove, camo left glove. Nothing matches, absolutely nothing.

I wear some camo, some khaki, some flannel. Really whatever I've got that works. I've never noticed a difference between commercial patterns like mossy oak, army stamp, or even khaki or flannel to be honest.

Always while turkey hunting. Never when hunting anything else. Plaids for me....

I'm confident I'd be just as successful without camo but it has been my hunting "uniform" for more than 45 years. I always hunt in camo.

The stuff I swear by now is more for comfort, durability, and design than for its pattern. However, the pattern is, I think quite good at "confusing" my shape and minor movements.

I don't wear it when not hunting.

Huh?  Is this a trick question?     :D   Everytime.  Even my socks and shoes are camo!
