FAce Paint
I am new to the sport of bow hunting and wondering what face paint would be the best to purchase.

Go to Walmart and get it in the kids department. The tubes are dirt cheap , like a buck a tube , especially after Halloween. It goes on easy ,stays on, and washes off easy, Ruby's is a brand I usually get.
Better than anything available in sporting stores.

How are you planning to hunt? tree stand, ground blind, or walk and stalk. I hunt mostly for elk from tree stand..they not so much look up if good back cover don't seem to need face camo. Not so much for whitetail even with face mask and cover lots still seem to give the head bob and foot stomp. yet when we hunt archery in Nov. from ground blind had whitetail 10 yrds from blind and have had them lay down...go figure.

I use hunter speciality - works great, use during elk bow season, scent is bigger issue, I use spruce bows, rub head to toe, carry in vest pockets, elk are used to that strong smell.

we do face paint but its more for fun and its always a good laugh when people do their paint..
stuff that I find is about the best to put on and take off is the Hardy face paint.

Face Paint
If you wear glasses, get one of those mosquito nets that go over your head, it will break any reflection from your glasses.

You don't need that crap....wind....movement...sound....killed many critters at ground level without the Walmart camo....become a hunter....turn wild tv off and some of the other crap too.....get into the woods....watch and learn first hand.
