Thanks to all you guys you have responded to my previous posts about different camo patterns. The optifade question really received lots of comments.
Anyway, I have decided that, although very nice outerwear, the sitka line is too expensive for my blood. I have found that Core4element has similar products (the mountaineering style hunting clothes) at lower prices.
I wanted to ask the question about patterns offered by Core4element. They offer max1 or mountain mimicry. Which pattern do you prefer for overall use? Or do you like a particular pattern for a particular season?
Here is my two cents...
I think I prefer the Max1 pattern because it is overall lighter in color and has more green to it. But I want to hear other opinions.
I am a bowhunter in Salt lake and will be hunting early bow season as well as the extended archery hunt through november.
I am considering mixing and matching my camo. I have already purchased their lightweight stuff (switchback and pivot) in Max1. I think Max1 is probably better for early season. I am going to buy the element pants and the torrent waterproof gear and I am considering getting that in Mountain mimicry to ad variety to my camo. Also, I think mountain mimicry might be a better camo match for the later seasons of the extended hunt. MM being darker is probably better in latter fall.
So the question is, would you go with the entire system in the same pattern (max1 or mountain mimicry) or would you mix and match (use max1 for lightweight clothes, and mm for colder weight clothes)?
Also someone previously posted that wearing two different patterns at the same time is also effective....
Just looking for more opinions... thanks...
