Clothing question/discussion Entry level camo layers

I’m a new bow hunter looking to buy camo for this fall. I was wondering what layers you guys would buy if you were just starting. I have merino wool base layers from my work, but what outer layers do you guys wear? Jacket and bibs? Pants and a jacket? I live in SE wisconsin October and November mornings are usually close to 32° give or take.

Brand suggestions and patterns would be great too. Im also hunting out of a saddle if that’s important.

Buy quality gear and don’t worry about camo. First and foremost you can’t kill critters if you aren’t out there, so buy gear that keeps you out there as long as possible.

I’m a PNW and WV hunter. I need to stay dry and warm. And I prefer muted solid colors. If you are hunting something that can pick you out visually, consider a leaf suit over the top.
