No camouflage pattern works for every location, it is that simple.
ACU sticks out like a sore thumb, in the Coast Range. I have 1 set of ACU, that I dyed with a dark brown, for 15 minutes. After washing and drying them, I used a dark green dye for 15 minutes and washed and dried them again. This works much better, but it is still not as good a my old BDU's or Vietnam Tiger stripe pattern.
I plan on using black dye in spots and streaks, to further break up the pattern, which should work quite well.
Here is my son in BDU's, next to an Elk trail.
My other son in a Vietnam Tiger stripe pattern top and BDU pants. Had he been in the woods, he would be really hard to spot.
I have multiple types depending on where I plan to hunt that day. If I am hunting in open hay fields, the DCU pattern works very well there.
The proper camouflage pattern for the environment you are in, is a must if you want to blend in as much as possible.
