My Avatar pic is     me, helping a Wounded Warrior, who is  learning to shoot    (the target: spinning turkey heads). Helping  him forget that he was hurt    have!! Trad Archers Of NJ Help out with this event every year:)

The RED SUIT and sleigh would come with 8 tiny bucks and that's over the NJ(Buck)  Limit for bowhunting

My beard is white and I only camo it for my wife every now and then.....

Facemask.

I think it's appropriate to get into the spirit of things myself...

From "Ho Ho! Ho! to....

 

 


"Go ahead..... Make my day...."

YES: I'm pushing 60, have a white beard, and find rubbing some dark camo grease on my beard/mustache or wearing a mask is a MUST. This became super evident when I was busted by a lead cow two years ago: I was well camouflaged, well hidden in my ground blind, and had the wind in my favor. Yet, after approaching to 20 yards (with a string of two dozen cows, calves, and bulls behind her) she was totally spooked by my white chin, stomped her feet, barked an alarm, and led the whole troop 100 yards around me.

For deer, I don't think it much matters. But elk on public land in Montana have a PhD in avoiding death.

Thomas,
That's an  Awesome  thing to do and I appreciate all our warriors!

I am very proud of the gray, worked hard to get it thanks to raising a family. No I do not camo it.
It is useful for cutting down on the glare from uncovered skin.

Some times have a mask on But sometime you don't have time to get any camo on. Mines camo gray now.

Just let some T'backy juice drip through it and you should be fine.

I don't camo mine (don't chew either)

With my significant ninja skills, it just wouldn't be sporting if I colored a beard.

Now I have two things to worry about drawing attention to me.

As of today I now ear glasses.

The new look.

 

God bless,Mudd

I sometimes pull a face mask down but often not. There are lots of light colors in the sky, leaf and bark reflections, etc. that I think I blend in just fine.

There is a guy in CA who combs his white chest hair out of his shirts-he looks like he has a fur collar-and he does not dye it!

Me, no at 65 I have a little red left in it, but shave it off!

Should you ever hunt in Colorado, you could pretend you're an Aspen tree!

This year I'll hunt without a grey/white beard or mustache. I'll use burnt cork or a silk face mask...
