Roll your own.
Here's an upright stalk ghillie that I made for the HT member in the picture: http://www.highlandtactical.com/images/eric_ghillie.jpg The other team didn't like him much that game. ;) |

TRU woodland jacket and pants from opsgear.com (though virtually anything can be used as a base, such as an old flight suit) and a synthetic jute kit from ghilliesuits.com (two fantastic websites).
I also build ghillie suits for those interested, but the most cost effective and satisfying approach to getting one is building it yourself. Always remember to include fresh, natural vegetation from the area you will be operating in. Spend enough time crawling around and this will happen automatically (as branches, leaves, grass, mud, etc. get caught in the ghillie), but some care should be taken before the game to ensure you are properly adjusted to your AO. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...ged-sniper.jpg |
So after a couple months of slaving away at my ghillie suit, it is finished!!
I'm really quite proud of it :D And it works great. I'll post some pics up soon. |
Cool, congrats! Get them up!!! :)

I am in the process of building my own ghillie suit and was wondering if I got everything right. What i need is :
BDU netting (I heard volleyball net works fine) Shoegoo Burlap Dyes (where do you get them and what colors?) You use shoegoo to fix the net on the BDU. You then dye the burlap, cut it into pieces and attach them on to the netting (sew them or ?). |

And you tie the strips with a simple overhand knot onto the netting, one or two every couple squares (depending on square size). |
so only one green and one brown and i'm good to go?
|
Depends on if you are doing top and bottom, might need two of each. Add in undyed burlap too.
|
Use mostly brown and tan as the ground on most fields is that way. The green you can add with the local vegetation.
I used Krylon spray and other colors of spray paint. It's good on the jute and the colors turn out very good. Like OD to make brown, bright green to make green and I leave the jute alone to make some tan. |
This would be perfect for you. The face mask would be perfect for hunting.
