Being an avid hunter and outdoor enthusiast, Carlos has always been experimenting on fooling the senses of game he likes pursuing, especially elk. Carlos enjoys the sport of archery and archery hunting. On one particular hunting trip his father, nephew and Carlos where caught up in hunting Sage Grouse; Carlos had ‘bagged’ one, and another, which had flown off into the sage brush, had disappeared. \u00a0They spent the next hour or so trying to find their quarry when they stumbled across it laying near a clump of sage brush, at which point the group decided to play a little game with his nephew who was by now ready to give up the search.<\/p>\n

Carlos and his father were able to direct his nephew to the spot where the grouse was laying.\u00a0 He then told his nephew to tie his shoes. \u00a0The nephew looked down only to see more than just his shoe strings (which by the way were not untied). \u00a0The nephew picked up the bird walked toward Carlos and his father and immediately said \u201cThere Uncle Carlos, use that for camouflage.\u201d Well, we all have heard of the proverbial light bulb…thus Grouse Wing Camo was born.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Animals are used to their natural surroundings, and can become uncomfortable, especially elk, if they don\u2019t see other elk after being coaxed in by using calls. If you simply make a subtle movement so the animal can see it, and then make a sound like a crow by using a mouth diaphragm, the elk become a little more relaxed. Carlos can\u2019t say what it is that causes this, but maybe it is the feathers and sounding like a familiar bird; when that happens, the animal no longer sees you as a threat.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Avid bird hunters and wildlife enthusiasts have used Grouse Wing Camo not only for hunting but bird watching and to photograph wildlife. Carlos currently has three types of camo:\u00a0 western, winter (white) and eastern.\u00a0 There are different types of water proofing and wind proofing that can be applied.<\/p>\n
