Text the show!Out of the blue in 2017 I realized I had been sitting on a pile of camouflage hunting gear that I only used once a year during the hunting season. For the remainder of the year, it sat in boxes gathering dust. Literally thousands of dollars worth of camo that I wasn’t using and wouldn’t use anytime outside of the hunting season.I concluded it was time to quit camouflage and swap those items out with solids in order to optimize my purchases. Since doing so, I haven’t looked back.This episode is a spin-off of the original article I wrote called “3 Reasons You Should Consider Quitting Camouflage.” It has since become my MOST popular article on the site so I figured I’d do a full episode going through the 3 reasons I think YOU should consider quitting camouflage as well.Show Notes and LinksEpisode introductionClearing the air and setting the stageHow I came to quit camouflageReason #1: Cost SavingsReason #2: Camo is more about marketing than camouflageHow we got into this camo fiasco in the first placeCamouflage as a marketing toolReason #3: More OptionsWhat and how deer and elk seeUltravioletHow to choose a camouflage patternFinal thoughtsThe original article with links: https://byland.co/blog/2017/12/11/3-reasons-you-should-consider-quitting-camouflageVisible Light Spectrum: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ColorSupport the showThanks for listening!
