Default Whatever happend to the treestand camo comparison

I remember in the origional camo comparison a while back a few members said they were going to do such a comparison up in the tree instead of on the ground. Was it made and I just missed it? If anyone was stil thinking about making it I look forward to seeing it!

If the wind dies down to somewhere under 75 mph here.....[] I might get it done this Sunday.
I' ve been a little busy with work and the season and that part of the test got put on the back-burner.
I' ll get it done though.

Yea, the wind is crazy here too!! No rush on the test I was just wondering if any one still planned on doing it.

Same deal here. I honestly have been too busy to do any kind of testing lately though that will change in the next few days. Maybe Matt and I can both do it on Sunday and post similar results.

Because the wind has blown most of the leaves out of the trees, the test results should be particularly interesting. I would be curious to see the black and white photos from 12-15 yds looking up at the camo in a treestand. I am interested in finding out how the stand and the hunter appear from this distance.

Actually Matt, I had planned on throwing a rope over a tree limb and attaching a camo suit (on a hanger and pinned together) to the end of the rope....then pulling it up into the tree. That way I would not have to keep climbing up and down and yet it would still be easy to keep swapping outfits for the comparison.
