How to Make a Ghillie Suit
Creating a ghillie suit requires a significant investment of time and focus. There are two main methods: an expensive approach and a budget-friendly one. Let’s explore both.
The Expensive Way
The pricier method involves purchasing a ready-made blank, usually in the form of a poncho with twine or burlap netting. This setup allows you to integrate natural foliage. Here’s what to do:
1. Choose Your Location: Decide where you’ll be using your suit, such as a paintball arena or hunting area.
2. Gather Materials: Collect natural elements like grass and leaves from the surrounding environment. Be mindful that green materials wilt quickly, but dead leaves can blend seamlessly.
3. Assemble the Suit: Weave the collected materials into the netting. This process can be time-consuming; it might take several hours to cover just one arm.
4. Camouflage: Once complete, place the suit in a pile of leaves. Add dirt, mud, and dust, and trample on it to enhance its natural appearance. At a distance of ten feet, it should blend seamlessly into its surroundings.
The Budget-Friendly Way
If you're looking to save money, you can create your own suit. You’ll need jute or burlap netting, along with either a sewing machine or a needle and thread.
1. Assemble the Netting: Attach the netting loosely, like scales on a lizard, allowing more coverage. Tight conforming is also an option, but scales are often preferred for flexibility.
2. Add Mud: Submerge the suit in a mud puddle to coat it, then rinse off large chunks and let it dry.
3. Customize in the Field: Like the expensive option, enhance your suit with natural elements from your intended location. Apply mud and lightly rinse to achieve realism.
4. Final Touches: Make sure to cover the suit with dirt and surrounding scents. This helps mask your scent from animals and enhances the overall camouflage.
Conclusion
The primary differences between these two methods are cost and time. However, the satisfaction from crafting a suit yourself often outweighs the investment. The more effort you put in, the more rewarding the result. Whichever method you choose, ensure your suit is well-integrated into its environment, delivering both functionality and personal satisfaction.
