Not me I can't stand having that stuff on my face. Besides I'm much to pretty.  :chuckle:

Never leave home with out it.  It gets cold in the late season but I have never been able to shoot with a facemask or head sock on, just can't get my anchor consistent.  No issues with anchor and the makeup but the cleanup each day is brutal and like I said the late hunt is really cold.  Of course pain is temporary, big bucks on the wall are forever.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

I do. Your face is brighter than you think, especially if the sun hits you when youre walking around. Same reason I dont look up at the sky when duck hunting without it.

had mine on every day I hunted.  I also use a Under Armor bacalava.  I painted up around my eyes and nose and cheeks.

No,no,no that's so you don't accidentally swallow duck crap.  :chuckle:

I don't put on a thick gooey coat but I do take the glare off with it all over my face, neck, throat, ears, and eyes.

Like mentioned above, I just can't get a consistent anchor point when shooting with a face mask.
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.

I have a mesh face mask that hugs my face really well. Much easier and cleaner than smearing the face paint all over.

I got light skin and red hair.  Sun don't like me and hair is going gray so need something to cover it up.  Plus it covers up the ugly some or just make me more ugly.  No the Under Armor got it down around my neck.  Nice buck Bone :tup:
