What type of camo do you wear for turkey hunting?  Personally I just wear my scent lock suite that I use for bow hunting, but it can be a little warm on a nice spring day.  Have any of you purchased one of those mesh 3d type of suits?

I'm new to this, but I was planning to wear my Real Tree Hardwoods camo.  The area we are hunting in is oak and pine with out a lot of clearings.

I think that any brand or pattern of camo that allows you to break up your silhouette will suffice. Turkey have a very keen eye and they detect even the slightest motion or shiny objects. Wear some sort of mask and gloves. When I have forgotten my gloves, I usually rub mud on my hands.

I have a friend who got a branch in his bow on release and it unstrung the whole bow and he missed a nice buck.  Ouch!

Burlap does have and odor and I don't think that the smell ever goes away completely. My bro-in-law buys one size too big surplus camouflage, specifically the chemical suits. These are thin, warm weather suits that are lined with charcoal. They act as scent-lok suits, but cost under 20 dollars. He uses his Rambo knife to cut strips of burlap and sews them onto the suit. The game haven't seemed to notice the burlap scent. He bagged a 17- point bruiser this past season. - Archer

Big Buck,

Sorry for the delay in answering your question regarding the chemical suit. You can find them online by searching for British military issue charcoal-lined chemical protective suit. These suits are military surplus, and usually sell for <$20. I have been using mine for 5 years and it is still working for me.
