got my first buck wearing my braintan outfit..respectable 8 pt.. not huge ... it is incredible how I have had deer react to my presence this year..nothing like seasons prior wearing traditional clothing.. I had 3 bucks under me Sat. morning one was a 17 1/4 wide 8 pt .. decided to take him.. after the shot the deer scooted off about 20 yards and then came back... 8 ran down hill but the 6 and 4 came back and feed for another 20 minute... I waited another 20 min and started to climb down. I was 8 ft off ground in the wide open and those rascals came back and got under me again... when they got about 20 yards off I went ahead and slowly climbed down.. the tall lil six just stood there and watched me pack up .. he never ran.. but fed up hill away... I've had mama does spot me moving and try their best to get me to move and end up feeding right by me again.. even go downwind to try to figure out what the heck I am... my thoughts since I've had numerous encounters now is this... HUGE advantage to hunting in this outfit... HUGE...  I believe it is a combination of the fringe breaking up silhouette of a human and the smokey smell covering my scent.. its almost feels like cheating at this point... LOL.. gut

Gut, those buck skins don't reflect light like cotton and poly cloth cloths do. Probably looks pretty natural to deer and other animals.
