I like original Mossy Oak Breakup in the beginning of the season and Mossy Oak Obsession as it gets greener. Hoping I can hunt some outside the blind again this year, if not then my favorite camo is black.

My 100% handmade, deerhide thermal thong. For those chilly days. 
Actually I like the new bottomland, but aint scared to wear whatever. Have killed a few in 30 year old Spartan made realtree camo. And just this winter someone bought me a nifty merino wool pullover in some new realtree pattern that looks like it will work. I personally won't send a dime realtree's way if I can help it, but since I didnt pay for it I ain't against wearing it. Movement is more critical than the brand of camo but it definitely can help. That's my opinion anyways.

My favorite camo pattern is new bottomland. Ive been wearing it exclusively since its been available. I wear it for everything deer and turkey. I don't have to worry about changing seasons as its not an actual pattern of anything..just simply lines, shadowing and colors. It works decent in just about any situation. Its slowly become kind of a "bro" camo....but I don't care. I was wearing it long before it was cool.

Couldn't care less what camo pattern I'm wearing. Whatever I grab. Sometimes that includes thin solid khaki colored pants when it gets hot. Camo is the most overrated and overly worried about thing in hunting.

New bottomland.
It's all preference. Finding a good hiding spot and sitting still will always trump camo patterns. I just like the way bottomland looks.

I think camo is slightly more effective with turkeys and ducks than deer and other big game. However, I've started replacing my camo with muted solid colors when pieces wear out. I do other outdoor activities like fishing, hiking, backpacking, etc....Gets old keeping separate (and expensive) gear in a camo and in regular colors. So I'm replacing pieces as they wear out with higher quality stuff that I'll use for everything while owning less actual clothes/stuff.

If I don't take my 3'x9' cut-out camo netting screen which I set up in front of me, I wear a leafy camo cut-out suit. Any light or dark color pants/shirt under that will suffice as I wait in my ground lounger for a gobbler to spy my jake and hen decoy set up.

But as a pattern old and new Bottomland is hard to beat.

I honestly never give it much thought. I actually have some under armor Chesapeake in Mossy oak obsession for a top when it is warm. Bought it on sale on eBay, a size large. It is a very cool shirt on those warm days. I bought some on the cheap and gave them as Christmas presents to the turkey hunters in my family. Kind of embarassing when my son in law and brother and I went hunting and were all wearing the same shirt. We stopped in to get something to eat and noticed it. Made us look like some kind of fishing team or something. LOL. Pants are either Wrangler camo, some mil surplus my son bought for me or dark brown Wolverine cotton pants.

I think camo is designed to catch they eye of the consumer more than not the eye of turkey. I grab what ever fits try to keep it drab during early season and green it up a little as the foliage comes in.

Original Bottomland just because it works no matter what time of the year. Plus, it's the nostalgia of it! Also greenleaf. I'm like a drug addict when it comes to those two patterns. I gotta have em and I can't get enough! Ha!

I think this is probably true. The main thing is to stay still. Having said that, Realtree Xtra for the most part.
