Under Armour, expensive but well worth it, all of their collections are great from early to late season.

Blue jeans and any long sleeve shirt you can find. Deer see movement.

I prefer wearing camo and I match head to toe. I have multiple patterns and thickness for the changing season. I personally think it's silly to go out in blue jeans and a tee shirt unless your on a dog drive or something . Why try to stand out when you can be hidden? I'm a big fan of mossy oak bottomland since I'm on tree most of my hunts . Realtree hardwoods is nice as well.

I'm with Surefire1911. IMO, Mossy Oak Bottomland is a great pattern weather you're in a swamp or a pine thicket.

What camo should you get? Well first...What Can Deer See?
http://www.outdoorlife.com/blogs/big-buck-zone/2014/07/video-new-study-sheds-light-what-deer-see

Take aways:
Dont wear blue or white.

Deer see yellow and greens. But are not able to distinguish the shades of the yellows or greens as well as we do. So most camo is going to look like a blob to them unless it is really an open pattern. Ex. predator camo or woodland BDU.

Don't know if it's been suggested, but you can go to Cabelas's web site and look at the "bargain cave." Usually some good deals this time of year on winter clothing.

You will definately need early season and late season clothes. I have been sweating profusely on some bowhunts, wearing a "T" shirt. It can get into the single digits here, it did this past year. Also, if you live here now, you will get acclimated to our weather thru time, and 25 degrees will be cold to you. The quality of the clothing matters more than the color. I have some clothes that i've been wearing for over 15 years, that i bought from cabela's. When it comes to deer hunting, camo is not as important, as turkey hunting. Even the old trebark had enough vertical, and horizontal lines on it to help break-up your outline.

How many deer do you wanna kill? ASAT 3d leafy suit, throw it over whatever you want to wear anytime of the year. I suggest a good wool wicking later by first lite or similar, a windproof layer, and a water proof layer.


If you want to always win, never play anyone better than you!

Here ya go ^^^^^, leafy suit, then wear whatever you want under it, a hunter orange snowmobile suit in cold weather, something lighter in early season. Wear your orange to and from the stand then put on the leafy top on over it when you get there.

Don't worry about it and just be still. Been just as many deer killed by hunters wearing plaid flannel shirts and brown coats as the latest and greatest camo patterns. I swear I thought duck hunters were bad about buying into camo company hype,but I have realized deer hunters are even worse. Dress warm,comfy,hunt the wind,and BE STILL

I hunt in jeans and t-shirt. Unless it's cold, then throw on my old coveralls.


Life is a journey. Make sure and bring plenty of Beer.

My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.

I have a couple leafy bug suits that are a size bigger than I need; great for early Bow and can cover up when you layer in the harder winter weather.

Get good boots and whatever for the rest of it. Light early and have a good heavy jacket and possible bibs for late season but pattern doesnt really matter. I know a couple guys that could kill a big buck in the middle of I65 and they wear whatever work clothes/jacket thats close by.
