I actually buy camo for two reasons. People don't see me as easily on public land. And it's generally warmer/quieter. Blue jeans and flannel just don't do it for me any more. Killed deer in them but could never stay warm enough. So figure if I'm going to buy the clothes anyway I midas well get something nice.

Not always just hiding from the deer.... Sometimes the wife wants to find you for house work.....

Brown Deception as an all purpose. Fall Grey as a late season pattern. I find Fall Grey a little too "flashy" for the early season.

I am buying some more fall gray this year. Hunting out my LW climber a ton on public puts the Predator camo to work in trees with little cover.

I think you'd be surprised at how well Fall Gray works in the early season. The light background matches up with the sky very well, even in October. Remember, with Predator you are not trying to look like something, you are trying to look like nothing. As I've mentioned before, Fall Gray will destroy the human outline at any time during season.

I just want to add in here that I have been talking to Jeff with gray wolf about different options, what to use for insulation etc. He has gone above and beyond what I had expected. Without me asking he said he would send a fabric sample to me in Kuwait to help me decide on pattern and material. You usually expect a reply in email to be a few lines. He has written extensive emails to me discussing the items I am looking at and making suggestions. Outstanding customer service andi have not even bought anything yet.... Take that back I ordered a turtleneck in fleece just because they dont have many left lol. He even offered to hold onto it till my order is done to save on shipping charges. I look forward to doing business with him and so far it has been top notch. When I asked him about patterns predator or intrusion he straight up told me he is partial to intrusion because he created it but has been wearing predator for 20 plus years. I love honesty from a company.

He will be getting my money now its just a matter of how much..... I want it all
