Face paint or Face mask?

[GomerPyle]

face paint is a common debate on waterfowl forums, but I'm interested to get an opinion from turkey hunters' perspectives.

anyone use face paint in lieu of a mask/net?  I use it for deer during bow season and like it.  much more convenient than a mask that may or may not move with your head when you turn it. 

thoughts?

mask if i can only hunt a few hours in the morning, paint if i have most of the day to hunt. I don't use a net mask though i can only use the  3/4 stretch type with the mouth cut out.

Mask b/c usually I try to hunt in the morning before work. The liberals where I work would probably crap themselves if I showed up with paint on unless it was a rainbow of colors.....

Mask

Half mask, split up the back with elastic like a bandit mask.  Wear it around my neck and pull it up when I set up.  One I use is net but has 3D leaf on it like my leafy jacket.  I wear a leafy boonie hat and pull it down low over my eyes.

3/4 mask for me.  I like the ones you can put around your neck, then slip over your face on when it's time to set up.

3/4 or 1/2 mask.  Either works, just remember to pull it over your ears and across the bridge of your nose.

Use both  If it is a short hunt I'll use a boony type hat with a drop down full mask. Have a couple of slits cut in it because I use a red dot, hate looking thru the mesh. All day hunt face paint if it isn't blistering hot. Can be a pain to remove though. You look like you are a member of KISS

I like a full face mask, never has bothered me.  I like it also as it seems to keep many bugs off, I can hear them buzzing but they can't get to me.  The ones I like they don't make any more, they are the ones with just the eye slits in them.

I use both. Because I wear glasses, I put carbomask on my nose and under my eyes to cut glare and the pull up my 3/4 mask under my nose and over my ears.
