As always, this podcast is “Concealed in King’s!” King’s stick and leaf pattern conceals like no other! We prefer the Desert Shadow pattern, for most of our Western hunts. Mountain Shadow is another great pattern, for those high-alpine hunters. This summer, Realtree Edge will be available for all of you whitetail hunters, in your favorite King’s pieces. Snow shadow is a great late season pattern for when the snow has fallen.
