I'm so sick of my normal camo not cutting it, and didn’t know if this stuff is good or not ... Anyone got a clue ?

i don't know if it works or not, depends on when and where yourplaying.
if you play in the fall and the grounds covered in brown leaves and no
coverage in the trees, i would shoot at the only "leafy" looking thing
on the field. dress for the playing field, thats why where are so many
different types of hunters camo. plus, that stuff costs an awful lot.
bottom line, if it moves, you can see it, know what i mean. camo if
most effective to blend in, once you move, anyone can spot you no
matter what your wearing. i you are looking for camo. use military
camo. its usually the cheapest, used of course, and if anything else
was better, then out military would use it, right?

Ghillie Suits are the ultimate form of cammo. I have one myself(hence the name "You Wont See Me". As long as its the colors where your playing your practically invisible.

To prevent spaming up the forums,
Do you guys have any suggestions for a good sight, it has to be a sight with mag. I dont see the purpose of a red dot with no mag. when I can aim better without one.

I have a scope on mine. It poses absolutely no use exept for looking good and spotting every once in ahwile. Its no use for aiming.

sorry, i wan't implying that that suit was never used by military, just
that standard issuse is your typical camo.. exactly, your camo color
and pattern must blen in with your surroundings. otherwise its useless.
i saw a guy wearing this stuff once. i kinda blended in pretty well,
but then he moved and you could see everything about him, he might as
well have been wearing orange. i followed him from a long distance and
took him out, then he cried like chewy, ok, not really, but i did take
him out. if he handn't move, i would have been the one crying :)

| Like you said before your right. If your moving around you might as well be wearing hot pink, because camo wont help you any.

i bought a red dot from red head at bass pro shop, its a 30mm two
different rail mout options, 3/8 or 7/8. its 29.88 from their website.
plus shipping. if you live near one, they will price match off the web
site. also gander mountian, same thing, BSA,for 40 bucks. I love it,
finds target fast, looks cool, and with the flatline, i hit the target
better than i though i would. at 100 feet, i'm usually withing a foot
of the target every shot. look at my sight here

I read some of the ghille suit posts and I am concerned that you all don't use them properly. You have to "Veg-Out" the burlap is just a base. Find plants where you are going to hide and tie them into your suit. that is how you become invisible. a pair of rose pruners makes this much easier. I wouldn't spend that kind of money on a suit. You can build your own, a custom better one... just search.
