Ghillie Suit? What is the best way to make a ghillie suit for the jungle. I have a volleyball net, camouflage jacket, pants and helmet. What other materials I could use. Is this really the burlap help? Many people I hear of jute makes you better blend into the jungle. But mixtures of jute you how?
Burlap is made of jute, it is a natural fiber material. It has properties that allow it to cling to debris such as leaves, grass and sticks. It is therefore natural and then mixed with the local authority grass and brush fits perfectly blends with the surroundings to use inch cleaning out a lot of fun. I hoe that helps.
Here is a previous answer
To make a homemade costume Gillie is simple. Take some lightweight mesh preferably colored. Fashion to suit the way you want to be able to move with the curtain straps links however you want, then trim 1 / 2 inch strips of burlap at least 8 inches long. Varrious lengths are good, they can break more than if they are all the same length. Do not let them get much more than 12 inches or you have problems getting tangled in everything that you walk by.Let detangle and torsion. then attach to the mesh you have already made up in the combination. Then, simply roll them in the natural leaves and sticks in your environment and you sail a costume Gillie
The best material for a ghillie suit is something comfortable that the appearance of the area that you and breaks your profile. Are you really in a jungle????
Before you assign waste time, money and energy - go take a look at a ghillie suit real person. Most of all Cabella retail stores, Sportsman's Warehouse stores and other stores carry these big game - they are very popular with bow hunters, varmint hunters and ducks - and each color is different depending on the application and the land.
Hope this helps.
Burlap is the material most commonly used in ghillie suits. I have three shirts myself and generally take local foliage around me to help blend in. I would buy one of Sportsmans guide or another site. They will save you much time and you can add them if necessary.
