Always been a Nat Gear guy,  but seriously thinking about handing all my gear down to my son and switching over to ASAT.

ASAT. I have some non-insulated coveralls that are big enough to wear over anything so I can use it all season long.

I hunt whitetails in central KY in mostly grown-up creek bottoms, cedar thickets, and small woodlots. And occasionally I hunt bigwoods deer in the knobs.

I have a couple different camo patterns I used to wear but now mainly just earth tone street clothes.
Brown Carhart jeans & plaid shirt is my usual garb. I haven't noticed any difference from it to when I wore camo.

Learning to mind the wind has done more for my success than anything I could possibly wear.

I'm still doing fine with some old style woodland pattern military stuff I got back in the 70's. In early season in my area, I would consider it as good as anything out there. In my opinion, the pattern itself is not so important as how still you can sit. Movement gets me busted more than anything else, except perhaps wind.

ASAT and Predator Fall Grey or Brown.  If you don't move, they typically look right through you - even in green leafy trees.

I love to wear the old Winona Mills camo. Soft, quiet and good color contrast.  For hunting whitetails in hardwoods and creek bottoms,it's tough to beat. Wish they still made it.

I hunt western Ky and southern Il. ASAT works real well on the ground. I also like natgear fleece later in the year, especially elevated.

Looking forward to trying some Asbel wool in the future.

I've been a fan of the Outfitter Camo the last couple of years.

I'd love to find some of the old tiger stripe like they made in the 60's and early 70's.

We have a lot of cedar trees around here and I use them as often as I can. When the light is beginning or fading they get really dark inside them and when I am tucked into one I want to be as dark as I can as you do not want a contrasting color in the background when you have to make a drawing motion move at the time of your shot. With that said I like the old school Mossy Oak bottom land or Breakup patterns as it is dark. As a whole the mossy oak patterns are darker also.

   

With that said. There is no pattern or wool that is the best for every hunting scenario. The one that best matches your background is the best for you at that moment. If you are in a pop up blind, black is the best for you to wear.
