First off welcome to Huntchat!!


And to answer you question. If you're rifle hunting, I wouldn't really worry about a particular "pattern" more so than the type of material (I.e Water proof, warm, breathable, etc...)

Year before last I called in a bull to 40 yards wearing over 250 sq in of orange in blue jeans and killed him with a rifle, so I'd say camo has nothing to do with it.

If you're looking to buy some new camo, maybe make it multi-purpose so you can use it for hunting turkey in MO or archery deer too. If you're looking for quite rain gear, take a loook at Herter's jacket in Cabelas for $39. I think it's made with something called fowltech, but it is quite, breathable and does tread water well. I suggest this more so than an insulated jacket b/c you can wear layers and take off as you climb. Nothing is worse that having all your cold-weather wear wrapped up into one jacket and you're too hot.
