How to Customize a Ghillie Suit
Some ghillie suits, such as the ghillie suits from KillZone Hunting, come with extra jute threads or synthetic leaves. This allows you to easily customize the ghillie suit as needed. You can add more jute thread or leaves for thicker coverage or a slightly different camo pattern.
For even better camouflage, collect twigs, leaves, and brush from around the area and attach them to your ghillie suit. There’s no better way to blend in with your environment than to borrow nature’s camouflage!
Besides adding more jute strings and natural brush, you can also remove jute thread or synthetic leaves from your ghillie suit. This comes in handy for bowhunters who risk catching the bow or arrow on loose strings.
To modify a ghillie suit for bowhunting, remove the jute or leaves from along the inside arm of the bow hand. Also, remove the jute threads or leaves from part of the chest area, on the same side as your bow hand so you don’t get snagged on the suit while you’re trying to shoot.
Remember to customize your ghillie suit for different seasons as well. In the winter, use more dark brown colors (if no snow) or white and light gray (in snowy areas) or a combination of brown, white, and gray. In the spring and summer, you may need to use more greens to blend in with the foliage. When it comes to customizing your ghillie suit, it all depends on where you live and where you hunt or play!
