What do you think is the best camo for west side elk?

[elkkillin5]

I'm thinkin about getting new camo this year but I'm not sure what the best pattern is. Here are my options Sitka, predator, or asat. Need some input.

Waterproof camo!

This is popular in some parts of the west side. It may be right for you, too.

it doesn't matter

If its dry, woodland BDU's blend in great. If its wet.....BEST rain gear you can buy that is quiet!

[HighCountryHunter88]

you just need to be able to break up your silhouette. quiet is nice, quiet while being water proof is what i juggle with

I'm looking into a combo of Kuiu Vias camo and First Lite's ASAT camo for west side.  Check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyQB65ig5PQ  Be sure to watch the whole thing.

Blue jeans and a brown jacket works fine.

I'm not to worried about waterproof it seems to be like 90 degrees in the early season I'm looking for REAL light weight, quiet, and will blend in the best up there in that St. Helens. I got riverswest for the late season.

Check out the merino wool top by FirstLite with the 1/4 zipper down the middle.  From what I've gathered, the FirstLite merino wool is lighter than Kuiu's... Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I wear Guide's Choice pants from Wholesale Sports.  Very light, breathable and cheap ($30ish). Comfortable in 90's early elk.  They come in green or tan.

Here is a model of the pants with zip off lowers: http://www.sportsmanswarehouse.com/sportsmans/Guides-Choice-Zip-Off-Convertible-Pants/productDetail/Pants-and-Jeans/prod999901361531/cat101321

Couple years ago I shot a Rosie at 5 yards....he looked right through me.
I was wearing a KUIU wool shirt and army surplus bdu's. 
I don't think it matters as long as your outline is broken up.

Prior to all this fancy stuff people wore plad

It really dosent matter. What I wear during early archery is Carhartt camo jeans(heavy but effective in thistle and slash) a camo tee during the day and a camo wa state bowhunter longsleeve in the a.m. until about the time the elk quit talking (hour after first light) most important equipment I have is a good pair of durable and dry boots. For the years it dumps rain I dont plan on my stuff drying out overnight. But i can have 3 complete sets of camo for what some guys have into one.

If thats what your looking for then its hard to beat predator spring green, or any predator pattern.

In early archery season, for the best base layer comfort I've had, I wear First Lite merino wool. For my outer layers, I love my Day One Camo light fleece.

Been a great combo for me.
