ASAT, Hey, I just wanted to tell you a quick story about your camo. This summer I recived notice that I had drawn a deer tag here in Idaho that I had been after for the last couple years. The months crept by with a bit of preparation. I tested my rifle a few times and felt comfortable with it, made a few phone calls to aid in researching the area, and poured maps of the unit repeatedly. Opening day finally came and my boyfriend rousted from a short nights sleep to head out for the hunt. We decked out in ASAT, loaded our gear and started off. The morning was crisp and clear and not long after first light we located a nice buck and really got a good look of him. After a tough debate we passed him up and decided to shop around a bit to to see what else might be in the area. We found small groups of deer off and on all day but none held a buck like the first one. Secretly I wanted to go back for him. Finally after a long day of searching, we decided to go back to the first bucks area, and as luck would have we found him again with about an hour and a half of light left. The wind had really kicked up and it was biting cold. The buck had 6 does with him and was in a large grass and rock filled basin safe from the wind. We planned a stalk that would get us close, but knew that if we were going to get a really good shot we would have to exposure ourselves completely to the whole herd. With darkness aproaching we scrambeled down and across to him quickly to the point that we would have to be in plain view. The wind was tearing at us and in order to get the best possible angle and a rock steady shot we had to travel across wide open rock and grass for about twenty yards in plain view of the little herd. |

We put our
trust in the camo and eased forward. Finally reaching a lil
flat we set up to take the shot a just a lil over a hundred
yards. The shot was
perfect and I had my first buck. I want to thank you for a
great pattern and would like to give credit where credit is
do.
I truly think the camo enabled us to close the gap and
helped get me into position to take a fantastic trophy. Thanks again Lori Skaar |

| My oldest son and I each bought an ASAT 3D suit and they have paid off. David took his first deer with a bow yesterday evening at under 10 yards. We were both in the tree together, were looked directly at, and ignored. A couple of weeks ago I took my first deer with a bow from the same stand set, and that deer looked at us several times on his way in, only to ignore us and come within 15 yards. Great product!! My younger children are wanting mom to learn how to hem up your suits so they can have one! On a side note, David just won the National Turky Calling Contest Jakes Division in Yellville, AR on Oct 14. Oct. has been a good month for him! David is also the two time TN State Jr. Div. Turkey Calling holder, and the 2006 TN State Open Friction winner. He has been putting this calling experience to work this fall chasing turkeys with his bow. He has not connected yet, but he has been closer to turkeys that he ever has due to ASAT. Hopefully thatpicture will be next! |

I know you guys like to see
hunters having success with your camo, thought I'd send you
a couple of pictures of a buck I killed in MO this past
Saturday. I've seen ASAT in the past and have always thought it looked amazing. My wife bought your 3D suit for my birthday this summer and I'm truly blown away by its effectiveness. My eyes have a hard time focusing on it. Simply put, it looks like nothing. Sorry for the Predator hat, don't have an ASAT one. I was, however, wearing the hood that came with the suit when I shot him! HA! Geoff Parker |

| Hi, Rob When it is time to disappear, unlike traditional camo. I need camo that breaks up the human silhouette and uses the true colors of animals to blend in with nature, the way God intended. Thats why ASAT camo works for me in all seasons, all terrain and makes my hunting of any animal the best it can be. |
||
| Thanks and good luck hunting. Jody "Buck" Peters | ||

| The first time we used ASAT camo it worked extremely well. The blind and camouflage combined were awsome. The turkey's didn't know what hit them! |

| I bought
my first ASAT 3-D suit in 2006 after much consideration and
thoroughly looking at all the patterns available today. I
got exceptional customer service and was anxious to begin
the season with my new suit. I hunt public land in Michigan,
which is heavily pressured and has wary, skiddish deer. The second day of Michigans 2006 bow opener, I had a group of doe come in with a mature 4.5 year old female in the lead. These old ladies are hard to fool, but the ASAT got me past her radar, and I was dragging her back to the car shortly after. It was a warm night and the suit allowed me to dress cool to keep my scent to a minimum. Opening day of gun season and I was up in my |
|||
| favorite tree with my ASAT and longbow. I love the challenge of hunting during firearms with a bow. Another hunter had spooked a group of doe from 200 yds away and they came in straight to me. I had to bleat to get them to stop. All the deer were on alert, but could not find where the sound came from. I even had one look straight at me!! | |||
| The following spring 2007, I tried the suit on turkey. I was walking back to the car and had a huge tom step out in front of me. He had no idea I was there. Unfortunatly I missed the shot, but the ASAT proved it's worth. |
|
||
| Fall of 2007, Michigans bow opener. I was settled in a new tree but only 12 ft off the ground. It was the only tree available to intercept the public land deer, but I was confident in my leafy suit. That day I had two mature bucks come in and never saw me! I missed one of them, but redeemed the bad shot with a tasty doe the same night. October 20th, 2007 I was trying out a new area and didn't have much cover. The ASAT did fit the dead limbs of the trees around me and I was sure it would perform. That evening I shot my biggest buck to date and it was taken off public land. | |||
| In between the deer and turkey seasons the 3-D Leafy Suit is deadly on small game and hogs. Squirrels can be tough to get in bow range, but I had no problem. The ASAT pattern is hands down the best I've used. It's the only one I will use from now on. Thanks for a great product and God bless!! | |||

Hey Rob and Jan just figured I
would drop a quick thanks. The blinds and leafy suit have
been working outstanding!!! Only if the operator of the equipment can function as good as the camo. |
|||
| On the 31st of August I took my 1st antelope ever with the aide of asat quickie blind. As the archery season is a long one in North Dakota, I had to many opportunities to harvest hundreds of deer. But in turn I decided to wait out the season for the Buford. On morning of December 31st, I decided to take my 1st whitetail doe of the season. The wife is starting to think something is up when I come home with all of these stories of bucks fighting, doe's and fawns playing within feet of my blind. |
|
||
| So I figure I should harvest the rest of my tags since the season is just about over and it is the of start of a new year which means I have vacation to go hunting once again. Going out Friday (January 4th) to finish what has been an unbelievable season. ASAT has a client for life. I will send more pics of blind set-ups and harvest photos. | |||
