Biazv orange is a good idea for hunters when, going
after big game as everyone knows, but it's also a good
idea to wear it when upland game hunting as well.
Often, when chasing grouse or rabbits, you will find
yourself' in thick cover where good visibility is non-
existent. For safety's sake, both you and your partner
should know where each other are, and a spot of blaze
orange makes that possible, nine times out of ten.
There are many stores around that carry those
plastic vests that serve the purpose, but they are far
trona ideal. I've used them in the past for deer hunting,
and found there noisy and seldom able to withstand a..
full week of hunting. They do not breathe either, and I
have come back in from aday afield soaked where the
plastic vest was because the perspiration could not
escape through my wool shirt. They are better than
nothing, but there is. a much, superior product on the
.market that you will find is much more satisfactory.
• Burlington's Ten Mile Cloth is the trade name,for this
material, and it has passed all the U.S. Government
•tests with flying colours. A vest made from this
.material is comfortable, soft, quiet, and ideal for its
intended purpose. It will last for years, and if someone
'in your house is handy with a sewing machine, can be
-quickly modified to include shell loops,. a compass
'pocket, etc. to make it truly functional for the type of
:hunting you do. It, is not hard to get so used to it that you
' u
feel nifressed" if you go hunting'and leave it behind.
The redeeming feature, however, is that it's available
from Canadian Tire Stores, and if they don't have one,
they'll order it in for you. The Seaforth Store. haS.some
'on order now, and they should be in stock soon if you
. want to have a look at them. The price 1 just under $15, I
believe may seem steep; but when you consider the
�,of,,years wear .you'll get out of 07,We not all
~t t tad.' And, if you compare it to some of the Wier
cloth "Blaze Orange" vests around like the Bob Allen
one I wear that probably retails for over $70 today, they
are downright cheap. Have a good look at one if you're
a hunter. You'll probably be impressed, especially if
you've been fighting those plastic ones for years.

All serious duck hunters know that camouflage is •
pretty important if you wont regular success, but
prices for good camo outfits are really skyrocketing.
There are, however, several "homemade" solutions
that work quite well if you are willing to spend some
spare time making them..
Camouflage netting can be made fairly inex-
pensively using curtain material and Rit dyes. Stores
that sell bulk drygoods usually keep a stock of net type
curtain'material on hand in varying degrees of den-
seness Just buy a length of this material, whatever
you t' ..nk you need for a blind or full length cover, and
tye-dy it using ,browns, blacks, and maybe a bit
green. I've used a piece for the last couple of years
found it very effective. Another solution is to use
burlap, either the sheets of decorator burlap or old
bags that don't have -any printing on them. Again,
splash some black dye on it to break up that solid
outline, and you're in business.
Another solution is to revitalize one of your old
hunting coats. Just about everyone has an old discard
tucked away in their closet somewhere, or if not, old
hydro parkas, etc. can often be found at the Salvation
Army. Talk someone into sewing up split seams, holes
in pockets, etc. and replacing buttons until the coat is
serviceable again. The next step is to bleach the coat
out and -or dye it until the desired shade of brown is
obtained. I Brown base is best for duck hunters as the
bulk of the season occurs after the grasses have died
and the leaves have turned: If it looks too difficult to
achieve the proper shade of brown, however, settle for
a faded dull green.
Once the base work has been done, all that remains is
a leaf pattern to be put on the coat with a black laundry
magic marker. Be sure to get a waterproof laundry
marker, however, as most of the normal ones will run
when they are wet.
Your best bet for a design to follow is a current issue
US. army camouflage pattern. A lot of research goes
into the correct shape and size of these blobs,.so by
copying this design, you will come up with a winner. An
evening of watching T.V. while filling in black splot-
ches will give you a serviceable camouflage jacket. It's
best to start oft with a thin pattern initially, leaving
room for it to he filled out until the desired effect is
•:hed. If yzu give it a try, you'll find it's cheap and
,,,fc ctive, and may just give your duck huntinu that
