Early in the season while it is still hot on most days it will be some lightweight cotton camo I have had for a while. Later I will switch to ASAT, some surplus BDUs and a cheap store-brand camo fleece jacket that I have had for a couple of years. Nothing too complicated or too expensive for me.

Hi All,

I'll be wearing my usual, a red/white checked flannel shirt, and blue jeans.

Warmer weather, Jeans and flannel shirt.  Cold weather, wool suit pants over wool underwear, checked wool shirts and drab colored wool sweaters.

for me...whatever I have thats clean.   and depends on season.  late season I have columbia wool bibs I got cheap, or swedish mil surplus pants(even cheaper).  and some plaid shirt.  wife got me a plaid heavy wool coat last christmas that I love.

forgot to add the most expensive thing I'm wearin usually is the noggin tops irish flatcap.   :)

I will reach for a combination of Max-1, Predator Fall Grey, Predator Fall Brown, ASAT, Cabelas Outfitter, and tan/green plaid.

If I get dressed in the dark I just grab whatever pants and shirts I can find.

I was thinking of the bed-sheet approach, you know, complete with eye holes, cover the whole dang thing with rubber cement, and roll down a hill for a toss....sort of your basic DIY oak leaf, twig crusted low-cost 3-D conglomeration.

Looking forward to hunting in my new 3D Leafy Suit as well!  Mossy Oak Camo, complete with a beanie cap and Primo's spandex face mask.

Picked up this suit at BassPro for $49 and I would recommend it.  Very light and cool for early season and large enough to bulk up underneath for midseason.

Always wanted a Leaf Suit.
First season hunting with a recurve, really excited about this season!

Let's see..

I picked up a couple new synthetics ****s on clearance Realtree AP hardwoods...

I picked up a few pair of lite pants on clearance in the original mossy oak..

My ASAT 3d suit over shorts and cotton t-shirt in the early season...

I have some wool.. Some green... some columbia gallatian camo

My ghillie suit when it's kewl enough...

In reality I don't think camo helps half as much as the companies try to market it...

But I believe it helps us ground hunters... and unfortunately here in the south, the wool doesn't get used too much till gun season...
Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes.
