Do you think leafy camo is better? I know the north mountain gear pullover gets alot of praise I have one myself but it got me thinking if leafy camo really makes any difference.  I seem to get same results with or without it.  What is your thoughts ?

It's another trick in the closet.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

Just bought a North Mountain green leafy jacket. Looks like great stuff and heads above the Bass Pro stuff I had before.....

Unlike most, I run leafy bottoms and just a Trebark top. I think the leafy bottoms definitely helps break up the outline, particularly if you get caught in a place where tree choice is limited.

I think there's a advantage to it. I feel that it gives some added depth and a little movement in the breeze makes it a little more realistic. I have used a Mossy Oak Diffusion pullover for 4 or 5 years last year I picked up a North Mountain gear medium weight Greenleaf pullover for early season.

It seems to help break up the human outline a little better. I've had good results with the Firstlite top and facemask

I wear a leafy jacket, leafy vest, leafy face cover and leafy ball hat. Works really well.  I do not wear leafy gloves or pants.

Started wearing a First Lite leafy jacket and head cover this year mainly because my grandkids gave it to me for Christmas. After wearing it this season I can't imagine being without it. It blends with almost anything and softens your outline like regular camo can't.

I only wear leafy because it's convenient to put on over my work clothes.  I get the cheap, almost disposable, ones I see on eBay.

I use a leafy top which also has a leafy hood. I don't know as I've ever been picked up wearing it whereas I have been picked up, sans leafy, by those pesky hens that come looking for you.

Definitely love it, they walk 5 feet away. It breaks up human outline.....
