The wind is the most important factor, camo is important tho. I had a bull bugle at me last year and was walking strait up the trail at me, I had to turn real slowly 180 degrees to face him. Every time he put his head in the brush to scrape i would sneak up 5 or so yards. did that 5-6 times and he never knew i was there. I dont think i would have got a shot if i didnt blend well.And we had the wind in our favor!
The pattern is not important at all. I think the tone or shade is somewhat important, but not all that critical. I wear camo pants because they're made to be quiet, but my top is usually just a fleece or wool sweater- in any color.Face camo seems to be more important that anything- animals spot our faces quickly and know better than to hang around
