Deer Camouflage Techniques



mn military

If you're thinking about a new hunting technique, you may be wondering about deer camouflage. There are several options for camouflage styles, such as Optifade, blue light and Breakup. But how do we choose the best? Read on to discover the most effective ones. If you're interested in making your hunt more successful, you can consider trying a new technique.

Optifade camouflage

Optifade deer camouferm is made to fool the eyes of deer, who have lower resolution than humans. Its color pattern emphasizes the use of gray, blue, white, and black. Deer cannot see it. The pattern blends in with the foliage to mimic forest settings. This camouflage pattern tricked deer to believe the hunter was a tree stand.

Mimicry camouflage

If you are hunting deer, mimicry camouflage will be your best option. You will need to cover your eyes well as deer can have poor vision. You can use mimicry camouflage if you intend to hunt in areas with little seasonal change. You can also wear bright orange vests that won't clash well with the grayish brown deer.

Breakup patterns

You've found the best deer camouflage patterns that are both universal and effective. Breakup patterns are used to break up silhouettes of deer, fawn, or other game. They make the hunter seem like he is part of the background. Mossy Oak's Breakup Country design is a combination of gray tones as well as fir, and pine patterns. This pattern works well throughout the Rocky Mountains, Alaska to Colorado. It also works in northern California.


Blue light

It is common knowledge that deer can see color. However, it is not the same as humans. They are capable of picking out both short and middle wavelengths. However, they can't pick out long wavelengths. Brian Murphy, CEO of Quality Deer Management Association was part of research done at the University of Georgia in 1990s. It showed that blue light has much lower octaves than red. Blue light is also easier to detect as deer have a larger pupil.

Vision field of 270 degrees

You can determine which deer camouflage techniques work best for your situation by first identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the deer. Deer have a remarkable ability to see blue light, and a 270-degree field. Guy Cramer, a designer for military camouflage, was able to use these benefits to create camouflage patterns that exploit deer's strengths and weaknesses.

Deer color sensitivity

The complex issue of color sensitivity in deer is complicated. There are many theories. Deer are not colorblind, which is quite interesting. Their retinas (the back portion of the eyes) are composed of rods as well as cones. These cones are responsible to daytime vision. Deer, however, have fewer rods than humans. Deer also have better nighttime vision. Deer cannot differentiate between red and green but can distinguish them from light grey and dark brown.

How to hunt wild ducks

Decoys are the best way to hunt wild birds. You can use decoy birds that are live and place them at a distance from the blind to allow you to see them clearly from far away. Avoid hunting in windy conditions as birds will quickly flee. You should also avoid hunting with other hunters as they may scare some birds.

You should know the number of wild ducks you are hunting. It is best to know which kind of bird you are hunting before you shoot. You should ensure that you have enough ammunition to kill as many birds as you wish.

If you do kill a lot of birds you will need to prepare the meat first. You should cook the meat immediately as it will dry out quickly once it starts to cook. Once the meat is cooked remove all bones and feathers.

Wild ducks can often be found close to water. However, they may also be seen flying through fields and woods. They usually fly low to the ground, which makes them easier targets. When hunting wild ducks, try to stay hidden until you get close enough to make a shot. It means that you should remain quiet while waiting to get a shot.
