Message: <blockquote data-quote="swampratt" data-source="post: 4135250" data-attributes="member: 15054">Bow season decades ago I was all in camo as was my buddy and we get setup in a clover field at Lex.Nothing seen all day.He told me my face stood out like a giant pumpkin in the woods I was nuzzled into.I seen his face also but he is darker complected.But he was right it was bright and out of place and if you make movements you can really see it.Next day way before sunup we go into the woods, I have a camo face net now.I told him I would be in the same spot.I did not go there.I let him get into his spot and I stayed right where he began walking away from me.I let the sun come up before I began slowly moving towards him.It was about 40 yards.By 11AM or so he was very restless and I could see he was trying to see me.He would look beside and behind himself looking for any deer or movement also.(figity)He looked right at me over a dozen times and did not see me sneaking up on him.I was 10 feet from him before he realized that bush should not be that close.F---%^^^ how long have you been there.All morning and you never seen me.Camo works.What does not work is walking into the woods way before the sun comes up because we came face to face  (4 feet) from a big racked buck that was at the edge of the field we were hunting and it bolted.I now wait until there is plenty of shooting light before i head into the woods.I kill way more deer that way and never spook one up.</blockquote>
