Your Favorite Camo Pattern? Empty Your Favorite Camo Pattern?

Post  BigDaddy1 Mon Nov 16, 2009 9:58 am

Hello All,
As I have yet to hunt on here Oahu (have to wait a few more weeks) I was wondering what everyone's favorite hunting camo pattern is here. I mainly have heavy winter duck camo and good old BDU's, so I'm looking for ideas for warm weather clothes. I was wondering what pattern to get, primarly for the NW side of the island. Yea, I know different patterns for different areas, but this is just to get me looking in the right areas. Multicam, Seclusion 3D Open Country, and Mossy Oak Brush are just a few I'm looking at, any others? Thanks.

I don't go over there much but I hear digital is good for that area. Personally I go for whatever is the dirt cheapest thing as long as it is not snow or desert camo or something. If I have a choice of sale stuff like on line or something, I go with mossy oak breakup. I stay in the wetter areas.

O.K. we all gotta know, Who is the guy on the side of the road in Nanakuli, I've seen plenty of da kine in that area

He sells new and used military style stuff right on the side of the road, pretty cheap too. I got some new woodland camo BDUs, a boonie hat, and a Gerber multi tool for twenty bucks!

Mauka side of the highway. Just drive through Nanakuli and you can't miss him. I'm not sure if he's there during the week though.

For hunting in the wetter areas it is hard to get camo that matches the terrain. The normal woodland camo is probably one of the best, but its hard to find it in anything but cotton or cotton/poly. I dont like walking around with my pants weighing 20lbs when they're wet so I won't buy em. I liked advantage Timber cabelas microtex a lot, it had a lot of bright greens. But I haven't seen it for sale anymore. The spring green predator camo looks nice too, but the quality isn't too good I've read.

I think in the drier areas, the ACU would do fine. Or any of the desert camo patterns.

Mossyoak breakup might as well just be solid black, because that's what it looks like from 20 yards.

I'd have to say staying still is better than any camo. As long as your clothes are dull colored I don't think it matters much.

the previous poster is absolutely right about being still being the best camo. Detected motion is what catches animals attention. Any camo that breaks up your outline and isnt a solid contrast will work. Moving slow when the animal is occupied eating or drinking helps the most.

I use secluision 3d for most of scouting, but a have a gillie suit form cabelas in realtree apg hd. for sitting in the stand. It breasks up your outling pretty good though its better in real brushy areas.
