What camo system do you use? Sitka, First Lite, Predator, etc?

[BGA]

I need some assistance - I am taking the plunge and getting rid of my mismatched cheap camo and want to get something that is full system that will last for years to come. I am leaning towards Sitka but am really stuck since we get cold in GA but we dont get artic cold.

What do you wear / recommend ?

do you still kill deer with your "mismatched cheap camo?" Not trying to be smart, but unless you just have a bunch of $$ I wouldn't waste it on that kind of "system" for GA. Now if I hunted out west or colder places each yr I would probably invest in something like sitka or similar.

I do however, I have to replace items frequently due to the way they shrink or lose warmth or degrade overtime.

I have 2 pairs of pants that I replaced 2 times in 3 years.. That is the same cost as 2 pairs of Sitka. So why not buy something you don't have to replace every other year.

The blue jean/flannel shirt army will be along shortly to tell you you're stupid....that said, I own mostly First Lite. It has the best cut for me(bowhunter) and its very quality gear.

Buy good quality stuff. It makes little difference what color it is unless you are hiding from people.

i am waiting for that one... I too bow only. I want quality and durability... and the overall camo pattern matching is cool

I like Badlands. Guaranteed for life, the pattern is cool, and I happened to have picked up a pair of Hybrid pants on Ebay for near nothing so I'm a fan!

Kuiu would be my choice if I was to really take a pricier plunge.

I've still got some surplus woodland from nearly 30 years ago.

You do realize that a pair of faded heavy duty jeans or work pants in brown or gray and a faded medium gray (or brown) long sleeve shirt, combined with a dark colored floppy hat, will become almost invisible if you are still and quiet, in brush, or in the shadows next to a tree, or sitting in a shaded stand - don't you?

In preparation for a backcountry elk hunt next year, I have bought a combination of first lite, kuiu, and Sitka. I like the fit of first lite and kuiu better, I’m 6’2” - 215lbs. Sitka tops are shorter than I like.

My favorite pieces are the Kuiu merino zip off long johns,, they are incredible for walking to a stand on a cold morning.

The first lite uncomphagre was incredible as well.

I like the FL Camo the best.

It’s really nice to have the merino wool that doesn’t allow bacteria to grow and it’s nice to be warm without the bulk.

I just buy walmart camo. My OCD makes me match the patterns.

When I sit in box blind I usually just wear tshirt, carhartt jackett and jeans though, unless it's below the 40s, then my camo bibs and parka are much warmer. Killed 3 of my last 4 deer in street clothes and work boots.

Everything I wear is Scent Lok. I have 3 different systems that I can ear between the GA bow season, Kentucky Gun and Alabama gun seasons. They layer well, fit well and are very comfortable to me.

I just dropped my load on Sitka gear... a lot of pieces

If I win the lottery this is where I'll get outfitted:

Until then I'll stay mismatched thrift store brand. (occasionally really great brands)

I have been using the ASAT 3D Leafy Suit for a few years. Just throw it on over my clothes and go. Seems to be good quality.

I won`t tell you that you are stupid. I will tell you that you don`t need it. But if it gives you more confidence, use it.

I have a few First Lite pieces (SS Llano, Hooded Chama, a pair of corrugate guide pants and a pair of the Kanabs). Pay attention to the size recommendations on their site. The Llano and Chama were a tad small. I bought L in both since that's what I wear in everything but an XL on both would have been better.

The Kanabs are super quiet, but they are delicate. I feel like they would get torn to shreds if I stormed through a clear cut with them. The Corrugates are a little noisier, but I wear them all the time fishing, working in the yard, hunting, etc. They are the pick of the bunch so far. I ordered LT on both of the pants and they fit perfect.

I own and like the product from King's Camo, Cedar Creek, Midway, Kryvo, and a couple more. My favorite piece, that goes on every cool/cold weather trip, is my Sleeping Indian vest. Someday, I'll buy a pair of their bibs.

I do not try to match patterns. Most of the time I'm in a ground blind or an elevated box blind, and if I'm in a ladder stand, I generally have a camo net hanging from the shooting rail

This. I have Badlands pants and jacket. Tough, decent camo pattern, and absolutely no questions lifetime warranty. I too got tired of replacing worn out clothes.
