Can I wear Forest pattern to hunt mule deer or elk in a mountain environment?
Because both GORE® OPTIFADE® Concealment patterns are based on the study of ungulate vision, gear featuring patterns will be extraordinarily effective in hunting hoofed animals in any environment. However, at W.L. Gore & Associates, our aim is always to maximize a hunter’s chances for success in the field. Because we want to give hunters every possible advantage, we created different patterns that take into account differences in the field in order to make them most effective in specific situations. In addition to featuring different patterns, the gear of our partners is also optimized for ultimate performance and improving your chance of success. Tree stand hunting often requires hunters to endure long sedentary periods in adverse conditions. Open country spot-and-stalk hunting can require greater maneuverability and lighter weight gear.
