There are a lot of options out there that fit South Carolina well, but both the True Timber Strata I talk about in this video and Huntworth Disruption or Vertek are great choices. For areas with pines I’d lean more towards the Vertek as it’s a good all season option where you have greens and browns in the environment.
Your channel has become my favorite since I decided I have to upgrade my stuff, glad I found it. Now that my kids are older I’m able to enjoy the outdoors and hunt for bear and deer a lot more. I travel between PA, NY, and NJ. In the past I have used some of my old marpat for turkey but now that I’m spending more time out in the cold and I have gotten a little too… big boned.. over the years for it any more. For someone in that area that spends maybe 60% time on ground and 40% time saddle hunting. Do you have a recommendation between strata, huntworth, and Asio for a one set and done? Or do you believe it should be split up?
It’s definitely more economical to go with one. I’m a huge fan of Asio, but for ground hunting you would probably be better off with the Strata or Huntworth. I think True Timbers camo is great for the ground. Huntworth’s camo, especially the new Vertek, is very multifunctional and can work well for both. It really depends on your budget. You’re not going to go wrong either way with the areas you are hunting. Thanks!
@ I keep going between disruption and vertek. I was sold on strata until I saw the features that come on huntworth. Can’t argue the bang for the buck with them vs competitors. Epically right now with everyone’s holiday sales. I like the Asio, and wasn’t sure if the splashes of red/ brown would work on the ground this time of year. Thanks for your input.
@ that’s tough. If you’re talking season long versatility, Strata and Vertek are both pretty solid. Disruption for this time of year like I said. Depending on how or where I’m hunting I could flip flop. You can’t really go wrong either way considering deer vision.
i've got those true timber pants for my kid , the youth version, they're great. windproof rain proof , sturdy fabric. i'm more of a wrangler jeans and woodland m65 jacket guy but i like my kids to have good quality versatile gear because the more comfortable they are the less bitching they do and the more hunting time we get lol
is it to much to ask for a 4 in 1 or 7 in 1 type jacket and bib/wader set with all the bow hunting, tactical and ice fishing features like good fit, camo, waterproof, windproof, zipper under arm, side arm access, silent fabic, harness port, stretch thumb hole cuffs, hood, neck gaiter, tactical pocket placement and float tech or do we have to keep buying seperate items? Itd be nice to have 1 set to late season hunt and ice fish in. Should fix that. Jmho.
Love my TrueTimber polar fleece jacket, its so warm! Got it on sale last year for $39. Could you tell me what blind that is that you show at 0:27? Looks great
Yeah, they really offer low prices on things you wouldn't expect to be that cheap. The blind is the Cabelas EZ Blind XL: bit.ly/ezblind-xl I think it was around $69 when I bought it last year.
I get my hands on every decent pattern I can between $40 - $100 I can and I mixed them. I mix Truetimber Strata and True Timber Prairie, Kryptek Skyfall Obskura, Kryptek Transitional and Veil West River patterns. When possible, Some days I'll wear say, a pair of Nomad west river pants, kryptek obskura skyfall longsleeve and Cabela's windshear truetimber strata vest. You get 3 different patterns all different shades of light and dark and differend colors. Really breaks up ur outline.
Good stuff, true timber, kings, and realtree will all get the job done no doubt. Ive always been of the opinion, your camo is only as good as the hunter. People get wayyy to bent out of shape over CAMOUFLAGE. Yes it helps alot and there are definitely advantages to it, but if you don't know how to act in the woods, it doesn't matter. Ive seen guys personally go out with me, that were wearing easily over 2500 bucks in attire with a $1500 to $3000 rifle and said they never saw anything, or whatever. Meanwhile, 99 percent of the time, im in jeans, a t-shirt and a pair of muck boots or if its cold, a pair of bibs, camo jacket and muck boots. I normally get it done every time. Not tryin to brag or anything but, the biggest things that help is knowing how to move, how to set up a hunting area, even if spot and stalkin and most of all, just be quite 😂. I can't tell you how many deer and other things I've killed over the past 25 or so years, just wearin normal clothes or camo from Walmart. But if you don't want to get into tryin to find THE perfect camo or camo company, just honestly buy good quality earth tone clothes. A good set of brown/dark brown pants or bibs, any kind of top that's a shade of brown or od green ish, ranger green can get it done. Main thing to remember is where you're hunting, if there's leaves on the ground wear browns, if its spring or summer, throw some green in the mix, it'll work out. Been wearin dickies and tractor supply brand carpenter jeans in earth ton colors for well over a decade huntin.
What do you recommend for washing? Does having good camo apply to black chest rigs and harnesses that don’t have a camo pattern, and also aren’t a solid green or brown color as a well? Specifically in stalking type ground hunting scenarios where blinds aren’t used. Does predator hunting like Coyote and varmints like Jackrabbits need involved camo patterns or can you mix and match solids, as long as you’re minimizing movement?
I’m using the Phase System laundry detergent: amzn.to/4eGbpPP Black can work when mixed with other camo, but if you are wearing a lot in the wrong environment it can stand out a lot. Deer see contrast very well and can spot it easily if there is too much of it. Especially when stalking in an environment where there is mostly green or brown and you are moving a lot. When hunting coyotes I think camo is even more important. They can see you so easily. Jackrabbits I have no idea lol.
@@theeverydaybowhunter thanks for the quick reply, I was asking about washing because I’m contemplating using Fabric specific Paint made by Rustoleum, for outdoor couch cushions, to re-color any existing black colored gear that I have, into the patterns are close to the hunting camo I’ve got.
@@momosgarage ok. Not sure what would be best for that, but don’t see why it would not work for that too. You want something that removes the scent and any UV brightners. You definitely want to get rid of the paint smell.
At 27, im a first year bow hunter. I’ve been shooting for the last 6 months and finally feel comfortable enough to try to tag one this year. Would you recommend either of these for a ladder stand? I know you said they were quiet but I was not sure if you meant it was quiet enough for rifle hunting. Another question is do you have any tips for masking my scent when I am in the woods for the early season?
If you’re looking for something quiet for bow hunting, the True Timber isn’t bad, but the Huntworth would be the better choice. Both would work for a ladder stand easily. As for scent control, here’s a post I put together that will give you ideas for what to do. There’s a lot there, but it’s a guide to understanding how I go about it. It’s probably excessive, so take it for what it’s worth. Remember, making sure the wind is in your face versus at your back is the best way to manage scent overall. Knowing if a spot is good for a west wind versus an east for example. Here’s the link: archeryhunting.com/26-scent-control-tips-for-deer-hunting/
You should go on the nine fingers chronicle podcast. Dan is sponsored and always says he loves Huntworth since he started wearing it. I’m sure he would love to have you on and hear about what you have to say about it.
That’s a tough one. I am a big fan of both. But, when it comes to being optimized for bow hunting specifically, Asio wins. Asio wins for fit and function. Especially with the pants. Huntworth wins on November cold weather starting with the Grayling hoodie and Saskatoon line. But, not by much. Huntworth, with their sales will win on overall value of features vs price. I’m not the biggest fan of Huntworth’s pants. They work great but no zip vents and they can be a little noisy if you get the ones with the butt and knee reinforcement. If price is your biggest concern then Huntworth. Asio is a slight step above in quality if you want to pay for that. Then if you’re a tree stand hunter in woodland settings, the Asio camo is great but Huntworth’s multiple options are great there too. I hope this all helps. I have a dedicated coupon code you can use for Asio if you want. You can get 20% off with code: ARCH20.
@@theeverydaybowhunter Yes i only do tree stand hunting and i use a crossbow year round just due to a shoulder injury so no bow. It really does not get super cold down here in NC, but i do hunt a max of 45 yards so i definitely need something that is quiet.
I'm in NZ and purchased some strata camo hunting clothes from pinewood clothing UK check these out excellent quality, price and features and you're right strata mixes in very well

Any suggestions to what color is the best for the woods of South Carolina? They may be Pines or they may be hardwoods.
