Hunting without camo

Check out 511 tactical, little bit costly but great quality. Chris

Wally world has some really nice cargo pants with big pockets on the legs, tan and grey colors, about $20 a pair.

I always have my camo on ! (my face paint that is)

For many ladies I've seen make-up is a very practical thing. So is camo.

I'm not bothered a bit by folks that don't want to wear camo or those who do. Match the hatch or not. Whatever floats your boat (or dug-out).

It is very rare that Trad Gang smacks of elitism but this is one of the threads that pops up from time to time that comes across that way to me.

Wapiti,
I like those forest green wool pants. Where did you get them?

I personally ever enter the woods w/o face camo (dust or paint).  I don't like a net, etc, due to visibility issues.  Besides, even if I am walking in from a hunt in the daylight, as long as my face is darkened, I am always in the hunt.  

More than any camo clothing, I attribute my successes over the years to a hidden face.  It always amazes me that the "experts" on TV wear the latest & greatest in camo patterns and scent reducing clothing, but hunt with a bright face.

I think that any type of broken pattern, plaid, or camo will work well in a hunting situation.  But I'm a firm believer in getting a face dirty!

Jeff,

Garage sale finds. I got two pair of them and they are great where I hunt because of all hemlocks and pine.

For those hunting in hotter climes, might I suggest Indonesian/Javanese Batik. They are available in various patterns and colours to suit your surroundings and make a good alternative to plaid, if not better.
