Get bottomland pants and Greenleaf top. Done
I am not sure if that was a comment to me or not, if so thank you for the reply, but those have to be my 2 least liked camo's in the hunting world. Mainly because they are just not great for where I live. I hear they work excellent Down South and the types of trees in that area. I was thinking more like Mossy Oak Obsession old or new style.

I'm going to be unpopular and say it doesn't matter as long as you sit still.  I've been wearing a All Predator Calls Kill Suit.  Its a hybrid ghillie and does a great job.

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.

I do think that ghillie suits and die cut suits do much more than you standard shirt and pants, but they (ghillie suits) tend to be so hot that I just don't care for them. Sitting still helps a lot no argument.

I don't care as long as it's clean. I mix and match camo constantly

I wear a leafy suit and any camo as long as it is more light in color rather than dark. This has worked well for me. I've had turkeys within feet of me with no idea I was there.
We wait all year,why not enjoy the longbeard coming in hunting for a hen, let 'em' in close !!!

Thanks for all of you who gave an opinion on the two camo patterns,I guess I will do what some suggested,buy bottomland pants and bottomland shirt and a greenleaf shirt!!

Original mossy oak bottom land or original treestand on the bottom for early season. Original breakup on the top.
Later in the season .....forest floor on the bottom and obsession up top.

I learned a few years ago that if I put my camo netting out in front of me like a screen, that I can wear whatever I want and move my hands, gun, calls, etc. and the turkeys can't see what's going on. My portable netting consists of thin camo plastic "fabric" with holes cut in it for air movement. It's about 8' long and 3' high with a thin bamboo stick hot glued to each end plus one in the middle. It's very light, portable, easy to unroll and I just push the sticks in the ground behind which I rest in my turkey lounger. I successfully used it three times last year, once for each permit I had. The incoming gobblers seem to focus on my Funky Chicken just behind a hen in the breeding position and never give my hiding place, only 20+ yards away, a glance.

I don't know why you think this was directed at you. It was directed at the OP.

Also, why would M O obsession work and Greenleaf not? Both are mossy oak camo.

Because it was directly after my comment and I had made the comment about liking darker stuff but wanting to add some green and then you posted with a dark pattern and one with more green to it. Not a big deal.
