I would be about half afraid to wear one around here hunting. I,m a big old boy an some of the people out there might think they see a Bigfoot an bust a cap on me.

I just wear "Leafy Wear". It's not as "Squachy" as the others and works well. Using 3D camo really breaks up your outline better than any 2D camo will.

Been using one this summer for coyotes. It is a very warm outfit to have on, and it has a way of attracting every stick and branch in the woods. It is near impossible to walk through the bush with one on, it's like a big patch of Velcro.
It is too puffy to use with a recurve or compound, but should be fine for a crossbow, but you have to watch where all that material is hanging.
Got busted by a couple coyotes in the early season, but since the suit I have not been busted once. I would like another in winter colors.
My son made a gille sleeve for the rifle.
This is the color of mine, my daughter is in it for this picture, $100 from Triggers and Bows.

I bought the ASAT 3D suit they have out. Cost me 124 bucks off Amazon. I haven't had a chance to use it yet but it's super light weight and has mesh as a base liner so you don't get hot in early season hunts. Also they are sized big so you can wear them when it gets cold. I have even talked to the company and they have a 1 year return policy " if you don't see more deer in one year than we'll buy it back". Not so shabby. So far i love it but we'll see what the deer think on Friday.
