Paint. Can't spit in a face mask. We'll ya can, I forgot once, trust me it ain't pretty.
 
Paint. I just can't stand wearing any kind of a mask. Using a wash cloth with good facial soap takes the paint off pretty easily. Plus, you don't have to get all fuckin carried away with the paint, like I've seen some people do.... trying to look like a Navy Seal or something. All it takes is a little black here and there to break up the outline and take away the glow. I really don't even use multiple colors much... mostly just the black.

Same here but sometimes I "Seal Up" my paint if I'm feeling spry. I need my string to touch my face. If its cold I paint the face and wear a mask until primetime then I freeze it out. Even during gun I like to break up my face. A white face sticks out in a dead gray fall woods.

Plus, if a buck sees your ugly mug he might not stop running until he gets to the next countylmao (I'm not in a tree right now like everybody else, so I need to give somebody shit.)

How's it going Randy! Haven't heard from you in a while.
 
Good! Hoping to get painted up this afternoon and get out with the x-bow. Got my right arm in a slinger from the shoulder repars but my blinds are set up so I have a rest and can shoot 1 handed.

Things doing better for you??
 
Mask here.... but am wearing glasses more often so when they start fogging the paint may make a showing lol....
 
That's it! I'm switching to paint. Hunting with my son and having a mask on is impossible. Every5 minutes I have to pull it down to tell him something and twice it was with deer in sight. Kind of a pain since we are whispering and most of the time it's lip reading.

I'm going with black streaks.
 
Most of the time nothing..sometimes I will throw some blackstreaks on to break up up my face..when it cools down I wear a mask to keep my face warm..seems like if I keep my face and head warm I don't get cold in the tree as fast.
 
I use a spandex stlye mask. The mouth opening is large enough for the kisser to touch the corner of my mouth. Last year I started with a net type mask, but couldn't feel the kisser without yanking it off my face. I didn't want to risk spooking a deer at the moment of truth.
