    Default Bedsheets for winter camouflage?

    Thinking about giving coyote hunting a whirl and curious if anyone has tried this?
    I have plenty of camo, and really do not feel like spending more on more winter stuff.
    Thinking just a shawl, white cotton rope waist belt, pillow case hoodie, and pillow case over my pack/gun rest.

    Fairly open hunting, working field edges and corridors...

    Seem like it may be a good way around cost... but I just ransacked my wifes over filled hope chest, all the way to the bottom, and no white linens...

    Just have to decide on double or queen...LOL

    Are you going hunting or joining the Klan?

    On a serious note... yes, a cheap set of white sheets will work for you. Hit them with some black and brown Krylon to create a random pattern so you are not creating a silhouette of casper the ghost.

    If you want an option that is a little more fitted and easier to move in buy a cheap set of painters coveralls. A light cotton pair of coveralls that is large enough to pull over winter clothing will last years. An even cheaper option is a pair of Tyvek coveralls from Lowes. The Tyvek works great but they will not hold up to brush. Googe Images and YouTube have some great ideas on cheap/easy cammo patterns and options.

    Only to be compounded by 'Didn't you think I would fit in it anymore?"

    I like to think that when I have the bedsheets pulled up over me, nobody can see me. I's invisible.
    There's no such thing as a free lunch.

    Admit it, you're just practicing your wolverines winter tactics..

    Rules are written in the stone,
    Break the rules and you get no bones,
    all you get is ridicule, laughter,
    and a trip to the house of pain.

    Tyvek suit (oversized), cut the elastic out of ankles and wrists, hang on wire hanger and spray paint angled lines with black and gray spray paint for leafless branch effect.

    A set of sheets could cost you more than snow cammies.
