**Question for the camo wearing ladies on coues whitetail

Recommended Posts

Ok met my wifey 2.5 yrs ago and she was easily convinced to try hunting and turns out she loves it. so question is since I considered last year a trial run she just wore some bdu noise amker clothes but now she needs good camo tat actually fits her for upcoming hunts..

 

So she is probably sz 6 in womens for camo and sz medium.. any used clother for sale let me know but also wondering where good deals can be found.. it clearly seems womens hunt clothes are like shopping for a Mercedes so far.

 

So ladies if anything for sale or ya have good tip for where I can shop for full fall wardrobe for my BRide please let me know.

 

Thx for the help

I was recently looking for good camo without breaking the bank for my daughter (10). Prois was mentioned as a top-of-the line women-specific camo brand by a guy I highly trust (http://www.proishunting.com/). I personally believe in spending good money on quality that will last vs. buying cheap and having to replace it over and over. Were my daughter not 10 and far from done growing, I wouldn't hesitate to spend the $$ on Prois. If my wife were to get into hunting, I'd get her this, too. IMO (only my opinion), guys don't spend the same amount on their wives/daughters that they do on themselves, but want them to be just as interested and enthusiastic. Get her the good stuff, for what its worth. Of course, there is also King's women's line and She-Safari. There is also the Under Armour women's camo line, too. All good stuff! Online shopping is probably your best bet for having a larger selection.

Dont worry she has been getting the best! bow and guns top shelf maybe some of hers now better than mine. and im bettng all the clothes I end up getting her will be better than mine also im just kinda puting the feelers out incase anyone has good line on quality affordable. she wont be wering makeup with camos so pretty sure she doesnt need stylish clothes but clothes that fir properly would be a bonus. fit without flare should equal little break on my wallet.

 

thx for the input keep it coming.

Yes she enjoys and I really enjoy her company! and we all know a lady with cold feet or fingers is gonna quit the sport if ya dont remedy for her. guess she always kinda sucked at sports and when I told her she handles bow well and shoots gr8 that lighted the fire! she is not really into guns but im thinkin my kimber 243 with shortened stock and reduced recoil ammo is gonna do the job for her in 6a on a good muley..I baited her in with a .17 hmr and a.222 so were gettin there. she loves venison so that is also a bonus!

My wife has been getting better gear then I every have owned. She will have her first hunt here in september with and archery bull tag. 2014 Mathews helium (custom collors and everything) top of the line add ons and arrows. Just ran her down to Cabelas to get some camo. Selection does suck. We ended up getting UnderAmor gear for her. A good $500+ for a couple sets. Pray for us brothers, I hope she has a great hunt!

OK guys, here is a woman hunters perspective.....I have some women's clothing, paid way more for it than the men's clothing. Men's clothing is way more functional than women's, meaning that I can put my rangefinder in a man's shirt pocket, but have you seen a woman's! you would be lucky to get your license and tag in it! I met the owner of Prios and told her of my issues several years ago, no changes. I do own Prios, She Safari and some RedHead woman's clothing, I do not wear it when I am archery hunting, I will wear them if I am rifle hunting..maybe. I am one of the lucky women who's husband wants the best for her, so he talked me into buying the woman's clothing, said I looked great in the clothing and he could tell I was a woman far away. Well I do not care if I look like a woman or not when I am hunting, I want to be comfortable and functional. So honestly I vote for men's clothing, until they finally make women's clothing functional.

I second what Kathi has said here. It's very challenging to find good women's hunting clothing and gear (like backpacks). And if you do find it, they charge a lot more for it. My suggestion is to have her try on a bunch, including men's camo and just see what she likes. Most of the time, the women's camo isn't worth the extra money. She might look better in it, but as Kathi said, it will have much smaller pockets and most of the time it will be thinner material that won't be as warm or last as long. I focus on trying to find whatever camo is the quietest, most comfortable, and functional. I can't stand hearing the "swish" of material while walking.
