By far the most impressive thing in this video to me is that someone trained a deer to take a vision test.

Best Camo: Stay Still!!!!!!!! It’s all about limiting your movement

Hunting for 12+ years. Harvested many deer wearing all kinds of clothes. I have blown my cover 9/10 over scent and movement, which plays a much bigger role than camo pattern.

I love the idea of the dear doing an eye test lol

If I wear digital camouflage I can live my whole life in 144p

i just asked a 10 pointer how well he could see. he said his 'deerovision' gets sorta cloudy with his deer goggles on

As a red-green color blind person this was a very difficult video to understand

How the fuck do you teach a bunch of deer how to do an eye test 😂😂

You are right to a point, but effective camouflage doesn't necessarily blend in with surroundings, it makes the wearer look like something other than a person wearing camouflage. As far as making something look like mother nature, it is difficult to make a two dimensional pattern look like a three dimensional forest, unless your deer are wearing 3-D glasses instead of NVGs. This is why Ghillie suits are so effective. They are 3D, not 2D

I used to hunt in solid colors of green and brown work clothing. However, what I also used to do was slowly and quietly, use piles of the native pine straw as a type of improvised camouflage barrier to hide behind or under at the base of a tree.

Might have been better able to spot the hunter in the last frame if the quality was higher than 360p lol.

Deer take a eye test ...slap me silly

My pap killed tons of deer wearing blue dickies and plaid shirts. Think about that next time youre swimming in scent blocker and wearing $800 camouflaging.

As someone who hunts, or used to quite a bit. I can tell you that deer don't care about camouflage. If anything it's movement, quick movement to be exact. I've sat with hunters decked out in the latest high tech camo and have gotten more deer than them with whatever was warm plus my orange. It's the movement deer freak out about

I don't know if all states require the bright orange vests but they are required where im from. Wouldn't the vest negate any camouflage texture anyway?

been trying to test this idea myself

I believe the most important , is a good background that you can blend in with. If you have cedar trees or pine in your area I think they are a great background, especially sitting in a stand. Just my opinion.

You should worry about smell and sound. I do like digital disruption patterns though.

Would the deer be able to spot our outline and what not better because it’s colorblind ?

How does this camo. Compare to predetor or asat camo.

depends on your area

After watching dozens of similar videos, I've concluded that as long as you don't wear glowing high-UV colors that they can "see," any decent camo appropriate for the terrain that breaks up your profile will work, if you have the wind in your face, stand still, and don't stink from that chorizo sausage breakfast you just had you may get lucky. OK . . .I'm on a budget and can only afford generic off-the-rack hunt gear.

Deer see movement extremely well. If you don't move, you don't need super good camo. Look at what hunters used to use.

We have 41 of them in our back yard ... Just point in the general direction! Well, make that 40, my garbage man hit one with his truck this week! Damn things must be deaf and color blind!

I was wondering why the two did not seem very different, then you said deer colorvision is like someone who is red green colorblind and it all made sense.

I'm colorblind, and can pick out a camouflaged man from a couple hundred feet. Contrary to what is stated in this video, Camo is highlighted and stands out from the background, especially digital. Certain artificial colorings have a tendency to almost glow to me. This is not unheard of, colorblind lookouts have often been used by the military of various countrys to spot camouflaged bunkers.

The hunting industry doesn’t want you to know you don’t have to wear camo to kill deer

Digital camo makes sense. But, doesn’t “going one step further by tuning the camo to the deer’s eye” (ie pre-converting the camo to Minecraft FOR the deer) suggest a deer’s eye otherwise converts actual visual surroundings into a Minecraft scene while, at the same time, pictures of a similar tree painted onto camo are magically immune to that? I’m probably missing something here.

Based on the great Doctor Grant . Deer vision is like the t Rex. "Keep absolutely still. .. It's vision is based on movent."

They can see ultra violet. So detergents or clothes with UV brighteners in them glow but we can't see it.

“...helps you blend in...” (Shows UCP) Why I outta...

Best camo? Maybe the camo that blends with the background?

Ive killed several deer while wearing blue jeans and a tan carhart coat

I think I will stay with my trusty m81 or ERDL surp camo

How do you eye test a deer?

I've been using the Marines Digital pattern and the Army's Multicam pattern, swapping out shirts and pants to help break up my outline....and I'm experimenting with dye's on these patterns also. If I ever get it nailed down, I'll produce it! :)

I have a Sitka vest and pants and wear a real tree under armor sweatshirt and I think the combination of the Sitka and the real tree works great for elk

how did you know if the deer could see it?

Wait wait wait! They tested deers with colorblind tests?

My great aunt once made me a jump suit w/ a greenish/tan, smaller lines camo pattern. it was so good, the first time I used it, a deer came up to me to sniff. I had to wait for him to walk away to have room to lift my bow. That suit was stolen but I use a brownish football pattern shirt that is invisible. I ground hunt and was 10 feet away the other day. breakup your pattern, keep to browns and greens mix (usually), use some skunk scent or doe urine an you're in business!

2:33 they added in a outline

At first I was like.. but both pictures are equally as hard to see the hunter. Then they said 'much like a person with red green colour blindness' and it all made sense

Hunters did just fine wearing the good ol red and black plaid jacket. Today's "high-tech" camo is to catch the buyer and separate them from their $$$.

Well, it really doesn't make sense if you think about it, deer are looking at an actual object, then it's brain deciphers what it sees, if you digitize the object, it will see the same object in an unnatural way therefore making it more suspicious,

They got Louis from Beastars to do the vision test... 😅 😂 🤣

Hey cool video thanks!

hay jim is that bow floating

then why dosent anyone use it..? there are no companys that use digital camouflage ... for deer any ways as far as clothing goes..

would you like to know what's really funny? I personally am an avid bow hunter. I am conscience always of being in camo and scent locked BUT, in Illinois, during specific gun hunt seasons, archery hunt must wear 400 sw inches of blaze orange plus a orange cap. I still take deer from the same stands, the same timber in high vis apparel

As long as you blend in with the forest you won't be spotted because the forest and you look the same.

no the canadian military adapted Cadpat camo because it its more effective

If your hiding in brown wearing brown and you match then it doesn't matter cause if they see brown as grey than you are still matching cause they see you hiding in grey wearing grey

B.s. I ware a old Dpm feild jacket and a acts au unifrom pants and coat .

They are kinda like the T. rex in Jurassic park, hold still and they won’t notice you, they see you, but don’t really recognize you to be a human

It's nice being colorblind; I wouldn't be able to see the difference if the narrator did not mention anything.

Deer see in 360p!? God have mercy

Deers already gotta deal with being shot, now they gotta deal with being shot by invisible people.

I identify as a deer. I was not surveyed in this production. DLM

the way this guy says pattern is terrifying

@rebelwolf72 ha ha i agree. only the deer with eyes that are sensitive to the sunlight are issued night vision.

0:31 That voice... Is that Cyanide from ZF clan?!

Is this STIVE from GMM? Love that woman!

MOSTLY THEY USED MILITARY CAMO , I DIDNT SEE ANT ASAT CAMO IN THER.

Oh deer.

Can’t you just wear OD green

What if I'm hunting wabbits? Asking for a fwend.

all life deer eat grass and not see grass color variations?

Been using this pattern for years-it works.

Guess Fred Bear was just lucky? After all, he wore red flannel and buckskin pants.

Wonder if anyone found out the color blind from that test it popped up?

wait wait HE MADE DIGITAL CAMO holy shit i gotta tell my friends back at the tree club HOO HOO

Mossy Oak Greenleaf & Realtree Original seem decent enough for me

where is all the quality

ASAT works the best. After breaking both ankles and my back, I bow hunt from the ground now and have just as good if not better success as when I hunted in trees. The beauty of ASAT is that I don't have to hide behind trees and brush to conceal myself. I am hid in the open woods giving me better shot opportunities. Deer look right at me and never see me. ASAT truly works.

Now desember 2020

ASAT!

I mean those aren't even Tier 3 deer, Those bucks have gen 4 PVS-15s.

wait.. how exactly do you train a deer to take a vision test ???? lol

I don't get camo when hunting. Most types of hunting seem to have you wear a neon orange vest on, which kinda ruins the camouflage.

How can both be more important

Thought deer was blind 🦌👀 wow

I wish they would make a hunter orange digital, why you may ask! Well deer. elk, moose etc are not shooting but PEOPLE are. Camo is made so people do not see you, for the untrained and shooters at just movement you may be a victim. I use the very inexpensive blaze orange camo that has small tree limbs all over that is a sweat suit over warm clothing like my warm tan carhartt jacket and overalls, yes some laugh at me. Yes I still wear a vest except in a tree stand or in a blind. I hunt on private land and only I am there but every once in a while someone wanders in but they see me right away. Deer do not see me, at all, and I have had deer walk around me eating as they went. For me Safety is number one and I am not trying to hide from my wife or any one also I would be easy to find if I got hurt. In the old days Lumberjacks and hunters wore a red plaid shirt or jacket - Why - So other hunters would see them but wild life would not. But the in the late 70's and 80's Brighteners were added to clothes detergents which make you glow like a state troopers red and blue light on a cloudy day or dawn/last light. I also paint my blinds with black tree limbs and stand hunter orange. Remember it is not war but hide and seek!!!!

good to see they did the job properly, haha

gold camo, neon camo wts

orange vests are fine, camoflauge isnt needed

Camo for hunting is a marketing gimmick You get a hunter with an itchy trigger finger and now your camo is red and the deer still can hear you & smell you

Is that Cyanide on the phone?

Well, turns out I'm colorblind... so I got that going for me.

Doesn’t matter. When you enter the woods you are in the deer’s home. They know what’s supposed to be there and what doesn’t. I’ve had the best luck when it’s cold, wet and in the rut! Any other time is basically rolling the dice. Unless, of course, you bait em!😜

How tf did they train deer for vision tests? Lmao

seems i have the same crappy vision as deer then

Bullshit! How do you train a deer to do a vision test? I had a deer come 10 yards from me while I was wearing multicam. I even moved to see if she would spook but it didn't notice me. It heard a noise but that was all. So once I realized it wasn't afraid by my movement I reached for my bow and a fawn came out from behind her so I didn't have the heart to shoot. I sat there and watched them until just before dark, they walked away. Now, I think mossy oak and real tree might have worked in the same situation but, I'm not positive. I agree with the people who say if your camo looks like nature, how can the deer see you.

elusion camo has the most advanced pattern technology, and it defeats the visual acuity of all birds and animala !

what if some deers are color blind? what if they're just super critical of certain colors and just choose to ignore their existance like highschool mean girls?

How the fuck do you make a deer sit still long enough to give them a vision test

How Tf you know what a deer sees? Do you have deer eyes

Staying still tricks any animal including homosapiens.

Nah you know... They migth not see it. but the have a better responses to movement.

I have had deer walk by me standing still wearing solid blaze orange within 10 yards. Sounds like a gimmick to me
