Hunt with some of both ,[no mud or loin cloth] :) :) I use Camo/some sentlock on occasion
and wool a lot,To each there own,I don't clam to be primitive,I just hunt with wood bows. :)
and love to practice primitive skills. :) At a tournament I wear overalls and a T shirt most of the time if the weather is warm,if not overalls and a flannel shirt. :)

When I am hunting I were a lot of different clothes depending on the temp and weather. I do wear camo, but I don't believe it is as important as being still and hunting with the wind.I have had very good success with earth tone colors.....but I have yet to get my first deer with a all wood bow. I have only been doing this for a short while with the bow. I have killed a lot of deer, and some quite close. At 3-d shoots I wear whatever suits me at the time and whatever is comfortable.

Clothes make the man ! ..... Ha ! ! If that be so, I'm near bum. Kirkland bluejeans and whatever is earth toned from goodwill. ' Frank

Once when I had blown 5 different set ups on opening morning of turkey season, I skinned completely outa my camo down to blue jeans and a bright blue t-shirt. I was walking back to the truck when hen walked up over a ridge. I sat down next to a tree and watched hen after hen walk by within 15 yds of me without paying a lick of attention. Eventually I didn't have a bird in eyesight so I lit up my box call and had a gobbler and two hens pop up 50 yds up the ridgeline and look right at me. He strutted his way to me over the course of 5 minutes and several exchanges on the call he got his head blown off at 12 yds. 3 yr old gobblers with hens on public land aren't supposed to be this stupid.
Camo? I'm like you, I think it's there to sell to people with money (or plastic) in their wallets. I like to wear dull colors and move slowly or move not at all. How many times have you been wearing blaze orange and people have walked right up on your setup claiming they never saw you? Predator vision is keyed to motion.
