Who doesn’t wear camo to hunt

[WyoDoug]

It does not hurt or harm hunting successes wearing camo, nor does it really help. Exceptions are with turkey and some bird hunting. What really works is noise discipline, wind and thermal awareness, movement control and odor control. Wild game really sense things in nature that does not belong and any of them affect your success rate way more than camo clothing does.

My girls and I scored 3 bull elk this fall not wearing camo.

Obviously you would have scored BIGGER Bulls if you wore Sitka.

One of my favorite parts of hunting is blending in with the surroundings and becoming one with the landscape. Even if camo doesn’t help hunts at all, I don’t get that same nostalgic feeling of totally blending in when not in camo.

My daughter and I won a "Camo picture contest" without any camo on! We also managed to shoot an elk and pronghorn on that same trip!

Obviously we would have had the world records with Sitka on. Gotta start somewhere though.

I took a nice Blacktail buck while wearing blue jeans, hickory shirt and a green watch cap.

The buck didn't seem to care!

Have a camo jacket but being a rifle hunter i wear orange on public land. Heard too many stories of someone getting shot because they were mistaken for some kind of animal or something. Also, if we're hunting as a group making a drive it is nice to be able to see others in the distance to keep track of each other.

An added bonus of not wearing camo is that you have more gear options. Finding the right piece of gear is easier when you can choose from Outdoor Research, Rab, etc in addition to the hunting brands

Why couldn’t you do both?

I wear camouflage while hunting. It is not the real difference maker, though. Wind and movement are far more important.
