Its cool to see guys as picky about camo as I am.  I am Realtree and Advantage max-4 through and through.  The Realtree with the Midwest timber just matches really well.  I do like the MO Duck Blind Camo but you will not find me wearing MO very often. I do wear a MO Brush under armour type shirt turkey hunting sometimes, but I just couldn't turn down the sale, so I bought it.

I've always liked realtree stuff, Xtra brown and the advantage classic were my favorites.

I'm switching out all my camo to NaturalGear and NaturalGear SCII.  I like the idea of their camo and it works very well, IMO.

Genesis 27:3 - Now then, get your weapons—your quiver and bow—and go out to the open country to hunt some wild game for me.

Mossy Oak has nothing on Realtree APG. Take a swatch of each and place them both in the same place, anywhere in the country and take a pic. APG will blend better more often. :)

I'm not hard core RT or MO. I enjoy both, but I do tend to wear more MO.  I wear bottomland pretty much all year.  It is ideal for the area I hunt.  Big open woods. When you sit beside that big ole pine tree you blend right in and do not have to worry about looking around to make sure you have enough green around you to blend in.  And I assue you, my turkeys notice something not of the ordinary.   :OGani:

If I recall, in the 80's and early 90's realtree had a full "tree bark" style pattern. I do not remember what it was called.  I remember having a pair over coveralls in that pattern.

I think you are thinking of realtree brown leaf and grey leaf.  I had the brown leaf when I was a kid.

Yea, that sounds right.  I think I still have an old turkey vest somewhere in that pattern as well.  It was my pawpaw's.  Or it might have even been a pattern before the brown-leaf with just the bark pattern w/o the intermitten leaves in the design.

I'm right there with you. Most of my season is spent in N. MS so Bottomland is ideal before everything greens up. I then will switch over as everything starts coming to life near mid April. I just wish that more manufacturers made their clothes is Bottomland. I love the Ol Tom line that is similar to Russell's treklite series, but MAN, Ol Tom is expensive for what you get. I wish the Treklite line would make some Bottomland apparel.
As for Realtree... To each his own sort of like the Ford/Chevy thing. I'm a MO guy!!!!!

I like any pattern that breaks your outline,I have been wearing realtree ap hd for several,not because i don't like mo i have just bought some mo bottom land. all this stuff will work as long as we pay attention to where and how we set our self up,but one will work better than the other depending on the make up of the terrain we are hunting. personal preference is just that,most of the time I mix it together and it works good for me that way.
