The best accessible camo for the woods is still real-tree . Guys can say what they want, but everyone knows that it's true.

^ In my observation, most RealTree works best in the fall/winter when most of the green has been eliminated from the environment. Once you hit spring and summer, it sticks out quite a bit (unless you're standing straight up against a tree).

I agree with what Steevo said. RealTree is designed for fall/winter, becasue that's when most hunting seasons are. The only thing that keeps me from using it is that it just isn't tacicool :P
I do not always accidentally, but when I do, I accidentally the whole thing.

RealTree is surprisingly effective, but i couldn't live with myself if I had to wear it. Tiger Stripe all the way!

I think we got off topic here. Back to the bashing, tiger stripes aren't as good for the forest environment as the m81BDUs but i would say they are cooler

We got off topic, your opinion sucks. Clearly mine is the only one that matters.

Actually, how many round blotches do you see in the woods?

Now, how many jagged things do you see?

BDU's are much better in the woods than Tiger Stripe as Steevo can attest to when 2 years ago at Fulda I was wearing Tiger Stripe and he was wearing BDU's and the BDU blended in much better than the Tiger the rest of the team was wearing. The Tiger Stripe that most people order online is just too bright. Older faded John Wayne style Tiger works better than the new stuff too.
You name a game, I've been to it.

If I've banned you, then you have more than likely deserved it.

If I deleted a post it didn't need to be there or I simply didn't like it.

My favorite is faded washed out bdu's. Once they get worn they work great. And for those who know me, I thought about requiring realtree as our team camo just to nag you .

Ah, that was a story if ever there was one! There we were, back behind NATO lines. It had been a long day. My comrade Gamblervich had slain many capitalist pigs with his RPK, and I had slain many additional pigs with my rifle. Then, like bear surprised by giant pig, we fall back into woods! Capitalist pig everywhere! Russian backup bear nowhere! Gamblervich take cover, I take cover. Capitalist pigs advance on position, see Gamblervich wearing camo of stripes of tiger, shoot Gamblervich many time. I clutch rifle in ditch full of leaves, hope I can survive. Capitalist pig walk 6" from hand, not see me.

And that's why you wear woodland instead of tigerstripe!
