Camo or solid day pack?

I used camo packs for years. This last one I went with foliage (olive green).
20-25 yesrs ago I thought i needed everything in camo as that was the time when
outdoor mfgr’s where introducing camo finished products. I still wear camo for the most part but not much of my other gear is camo anymore.
 
I use a foliage colored Mystery Ranch pack, and most of the time, either my shirt or pants (or both) are a solid color (green/gray), and I hunt both eastern and western style terrain. I own and use camo clothes, but I tend to think people put a little too much emphasis on needing to have all their clothes be matching camo (and having camo that "matches" a specific terrain). I think most people would be better served to spend their time shooting more (bow, rifle, muzzleloader), and learning how to find game (read terrain/maps/sign, understand seasonal habits, etc.).
This and I would add getting in the best physical condition you can.
 
For many years Kifaru hunting packs came in one color, black. And I would guess that a few deer were killed by hunters wearing those packs.

If it's a firearm season I'm wearing some type of blaze orange too and I would not care if it's public or private land. Too many idiots out there.
 
I like the camo option for the blood stain reason. It’s easy to see on solid but will be mostly hidden on a camo pattern
