Night calling camo?

[moonshine44]

What patterns are you all using? I've got a couple of pieces of antique D) Realtree stuff, but the rest of my camos are sagebrush patterns and digicam.

Thanks!

I really don't think you need camo any time, least of all at night. I wear camo pants and jackets when it's cold, but that's just because my best cold weather gear happens to be camouflage. Otherwise, I'll wear a black shirt, some dark pants, or whatever, but just like daytime, put the moon behind you and find a shadow. Seems to be the best method.

any dark clothing works great. we also use snow camo in the winter. by the time a coyote spots you, it should be dead or about to be dead. hunting during a full moon is different. use the shadows and cover like you would during the day.

I will use snow camo when there is snow on the ground, otherwise, anything dark.

I wear dark clothes, often blue jeans and a dark hoodie. If I wear any camo at night, it’s because I have some warm camo that works well on colder nights.

Dark cool clothes during the Summer…mainly camo during the Winter because it’s the warmest.

Night camo? Day camo isn’t even needed

I use old "recycled" archery clothes cause they were bought for all day Nov. treestand sits when it is cold. If snow, I put a snow ghillie jacket over it. In warm weather I wear anything I got, sometimes even fishing pants and shirts if really warm and they are tan or gray.

Camo is the least of your concerns at night, I wear it because that's what I have.

Dress like a Bigfoot and you'll become so invisible a camera won't be able to pick you out.

It depends on your hunting scenario. Some are saying no camo needed and I doubt they have ever tried stalking to within 30 yards of a sounder of hogs with 10 or 12 sets of eyes watching in bright moonlight.

This horse has been beat a long time on these forums. My theory is you have to wear clothes, so wear camo hunting clothes then you don't have to worry about it. It's that common sense thing again.

He asked specifically about night calling camo, not pig stalking, or turkey wrestling, or opposum kicking camo.

I guess that isn't common sense.

Excuse me....Yes, night calling. In that scenario I think your best yellow golf shirt and the matching plaid pants would work better than camo.

Especially with a full moon.

I could shoot coyotes every night wearing that uniform.

Which is kind of the point of all of the answers explaining why camo isn't neccessary.

I think we should ask Stevie Wonder what he thinks.

Thanks, troops. Some of your replies were good for a laugh!

Dark hoodie, etc. it is!

Never had an issue stalking hogs and being seen day or night. As long as the wind is right and you move slow, you can get too close sometimes. I know everyone says they can see great, but that just hasn’t been my experience.
