I started to reply to this thread, but figured a new post would be of better use for ghillie suits...

  Ghillie suit primer  

It should be a discussion, I am no expert, but have been using one for a while and consulted a very well respected sniper along with a couple more military and LEO snipers when deciding to make a ghillie....

I hope it helps

It seems all those dangly threads would catch your bow strings, do you cut them short on your bow arm?

Yep, just on the inside part of the arm.

Good photos Mudd, but looks like you need to stay home a couple days and rehang the back door and maybe a coat of paint on the house.  :biglaugh:

My wife accepted the fact years ago that I am a "hunter gatherer" and not a "fixer upper" so leave me alone!...lol

God bless,Mudd

PS: that isn't my house in the picture either...lol

Only when I draw. I felt bad for the poor little deer not being able to see me, I wanted to give them a chance.   :bigsmyl:

HaHa!!

Sorry Buddy,

The only suggestion I have is to buy/cut her a new tree, or buy/make yourself another ghillie suit.
