I always wear a 3D jacket turkey hunting and bowhunting deer. It is definitely superior. I prefer the Whitewater Realtree Pro Jacket. I don't wear the pants, because they get hung up on briars and everything else.
My Dad wears a jacket, pants, and hat. He had a song bird almost land on the brim of his hat. I've had a hen walk past at 4 yards and not see me.
That's a great story you have!
