    Default What hunting camo do you use for early season?

    i'm looking at buying new camo for early bow season. I was wandering what camo you all use for 30 - 60 degree weather.

    I have a coverall in Advantage that I use until the temps hit the 40's then I switch over to the insulated Advantage coverall.

    Predator Camos Spring Green is good for tree stand and ground hunting in early October. I bought a set for turkey hunting this spring and its awesome!
    I switch to thier Fall Grey pattern once the leaves start to thin out up in the trees at stand hieghts...

    In the early season I have a Realtree Hardwoods Green leafy suit with a Scentblocker underlayment. When it gets cooler then I have a Scent Blocker outfit.

    For spring turkeys I use the leafy suit and just put what feels comfortable underneath as temps change alot here in Michigan!

    I use Kings Mountain or Desert shadow for almost everything. Mossy oak has a new brush camo out that looks good. Advantage max 1 need to use less blue or a slightly different tone of it. It really doesn't match the sage brush I hunt in as well as the others. I guess maybe I'm in the minority but western big game camo other than kings or ASAT is tough to come by. I'm glad to see mossy oak and realtree finally trying to put products into our market though. I just wish it hadn't taken them so long to remember we were out here.

    Most anything that happens to be available at the time... I've even been known to use the old military BDU's from the service days....

    Hardwoods Green, once the leaves drop then regular Hardwoods. But I have some MO new break up as well. But I think its too dark. Only thing I have for colder weather is the MO. When that wears out It will be all Hardwoods.
