Most of the time I think if you wear a solid color that is about the same color and shade as your surrounding color you will do fine. Some camo is way to dark or way to light to blend in with your surrounding colors.
In the Juniper country I hunt in Carhartt Tan pants with a darker solid green top would work great.
I try to call the coyotes up to within 10 to 15 yards so I can take pictures of them and shoot them with a shotgun. Quite often I have to sit in the sun to get the wind right so I always have camo on with camo gloves and a camo face mask.
I would tend to agree with Bob on this. Animals see colors differently than we do, but they can certainly see our shapes. Many of us have seen coyotes or other animals kick on the jets at the first sight of a person shaped object.
I think that if you are still, and give them something else to focus on and are in clothing with the right tone, you'll be fine.
I use camo and a ghillie suit during the winter months. Anything that I can do to up my odds, I will do. Why play fair?
