I’m not trying to troll, I’m genuinely curious. Thinking about deer specifically, it doesn’t seem like visual camouflage would really help much when hunting them. Deer sense predators by sensitive hearing (big ears) and smell (long snout). Their eyes are on the sides of their head, so they detect motion rather than high-resolution.

So trying to blend in with the surroundings doesn’t seem to be an advantage in this case. Assuming all this, what’s the point of clothing with camo print on it?

      I’m fairly certain it was but can’t recall for sure. The guy at Best Buy or Circuit City really did the hard sales pitch to convince him that it was worth the money and he’d definitely notice the difference. I recall making fun of him for it and his rebuttal was that it also came with a warranty so he could swap it out at some future date (since, you know, it’s so common for HDMI cables to wear out from all the data traveling through them).
