actually depends on what your hunting........I wear camo when deer hunting which I believe helps as long as you don't move.......I've been close to a mile away in camo sitting in a juniper glassing deer......I turned to look behind me and turned back to see every deer I've been watching looking right at me.........hogs on the other hand have very poor eye sight.......camo would be a plus but I wouldn't be afraid to hunt hogs in a plaid suit.........just stay down wind........JMO.

For hogs and with a rifle, its pretty much unnecessary. Stealthy woodsmanship will do you better than the best camo. My usual hog hunting rifle attire consists of Carhart pants and a flannel shirt.

Gotta agree. Pigs are damn near blind it seems deer on the other hand will spot you three canyons away in camo and doing a belly crawl....well not quite but close enough, they sure act like it.

Dang. I guess I'm gonna go throw all my camo in the goodwill pile now. I just can't stand the idea that someone I don't even know might think I'm a yahoo.

I guess I've been lame this whole time and didn't even know it. I guess I'm glad the hogs can't tell the difference.

IMHO.
Bowhunting it does make a difference. But, hunting pigs with gun or bow it never seems to matter because of the limited eyesight of pgs.
I have had deer walk right up to me when wearing camo and not see me. But, it has also happened wearing a brown tee shirt and brown jeans...
