I hunt spring gobblers mostly in the Texas hill country but would like to know what y'all's opinions are for a camo pattern that you ban take most places in the nation to hunt turkeys in the spring?
I prefer mossy oak obsession. Works great where I am. Most everything is green by the time season comes in here.
To tell the truth ,I have no idea from day to day what I'm wearing unless I look at the label. I grab whatever is clean and hit the woods.Mix and match.
Anything with a moderate amount of green from Muticam, Obsesion, SCII, Predator Deception Green, APG...
I am favorable to BottomLand here in South Alabama. I also like many others though (MO Obsession, Infinity, APG, ATACS, Nat Gear, etc...)
I only own BottomLand, but that is because that is what the wife bought me.
I like Bottomland currently. My old favorite was Shadow Leaf from Mossy Oak.

Obsession and bottomland
I'll wear anything, but I really like AP and obsession.
MO Obsession but would like to buy some bottomland when the funds allow it.

Anything that breaks up my outline,none of it works if you aint sitting still though.Tom Gaskins Sr. killed many a wiley Osceola in dungarees and a work shirt,barefooted.
ASAT works well for me.

x2 But most of mine are starting to fade. I was looking at the mossy oak obsession. Looks like it would work great here in NY.
ive always liked mossy oak break up for about everything
Mossy Oak Shadowleaf no doubt.
Really more concerned with comfort and price (if it's light weight material so I dont get too hot and on a clearance rack, I'll buy it) BUT my favorite is probably natural gear ll camo.
I think just about any camo will work if you sit still.
Obsession, seclusion 3d, duck blind, depends on how quick it greens up
Mossy oak shadow leaf or Forest floor

Whatever Walmart has on sale! Lol
This year I bought some cheap ivy and grape leaf bundles from the floral section at Walmart. Put some leaves on my camera tripod and on my mesh face mask. The birds haven't picked me out yet.... Called in 3 and shot 2 so far

Same for me, in that order.
I got this Mosquito proof stuff at Cabelas, seemed to fit the bill this spring.

I wear Natural gear. Works on everything from waterfowl in the fall to ducks in the spring.
I still use Realtree Xtra Brown above the waist. It's a good match for sitting against an oak tree. I hunt in CA and during spring turkey season the woods' floor is a riot of every shade of green. I wear pants with a Realtree Max1 pattern because it had the most green of the patterns this particular style came in. If I had my pick I'd probably take Mossy Oak Obsession.
anything with some green in it
Advantage timber.
Predator Spring Green, Predator Green Deception and Mothwing Spring Mimicry.
MO breakup and Realtree AP and APG
Mossy oak forest floor, I don't think they make it any more, so I'm being careful not to wash it too much so it won't fade

Turn it inside out, wash it in cold water with Sport Wash (no scent, no UV brighteners) and they won't fade. I'm still wearing my Realtree Xtra Brown from the 90s and it hasn't faded yet.

Mossy Oak Bottomland and Natgear
Absolute best for my area is the old gray Realtree Hardwoods 20/200.
AP and APG are close seconds.
All the MO patterns seem too tight and dark for the northern PA woods.
I love my MO Shadowleaf leafy suit. got some Bottomland too though
Mossy oak Greenleaf and it is getting old. I wish they still made it...
My all time favorite is mossy oak forest floor, too bad they don't make it anymore.
Predator camo. Love it
Wish Mossy Oak would listen to the hunters and bring back an updated Green Leaf.
My favorite all around is Bottomland, but I am liking Hardwoods Green too.
Depends on where I am hunting.
I am using the Elevated Forest Optifade camo that Sitka offers on their clothing line. Here in CA everything is GREEN this time of year and I really like the way that camo blends into the surroundings. :gobble:
I use mostly mossy oak but camo doesn't concern me a lot as long as I have it on
Mossy Oak Obssession is my favorite now Breakup is good too, Shadowleaf was my alltime favorite but they don't make it anymore.
Obession looks great in the spring woods. But my all time favorite is defiantly shadowleaf. Was at a local sporting goods store the other day and found a brand new shadowleaf button up hanging there. I couldn't believe it. Lol. Don't know where it came from but I'm glad I was the lucky one to find it!!!
Advantage Max 1 or Ground swat
I like the realtree AP green
Hunting before green-up, I use Mossy Oak Breakup and after I use Mossy Oak Obsession.
Another ASAT fan here.
I got alot of camo and I try to match it..lol! If its clean and depending on the temp outside is what I throw on ;)
Mossy Oak Obsession fan here

Predator camo. Love it
+1 it doesn't merge at long distances.
I was just wearing my APHD gear but this year I started to buy Obsession. I got a vest and pants so far.. I mix and match usually. It drives some of my OCD friends crazy. Camo is way too hyped up.

I don't believe I own two pieces of camo hunting clothes/gear that match. I have some old LW BDU uniform pants, one pair of Multi-Cam uniform pants, and several long sleeve camo t-shirts I have had for several years (Forest Floor, Infinity, and a commercial BDU copy). That makes up my turkey hunting gear (this stuff get used for fall whitetail to when it is still too hot to wear heavier clothing).
I always wear a camo jacket of some sorts, but I have killed a pile of them wearing just dark pants that are not camouflaged. If I can, I like to get in a spot where as soon as he can see my position, I can kill him.
i'm one of the mix match crowd what ever i have on is good.if i have camo on that means i'm going hunting so it's all good
most anything by mossy oak. I like to mix it up. Yesterday I wore Bottomland, Obsession and Breakup.
I have had good luck with MO breakup. But like others have said, I wish they would bring back forest floor!!!!
Big mossy oak fan, but the original Advantage is hard to beat for all purpose
Mossy Oak Obsession :icon_thumright:
Realtree has a new pattern, Realtree Xtra Green that looks promising. Click on the Effectiveness Photos.
