I hunt in South East Wisconsin some of the habitat hunt in is a combination marsh woods and farm land. Thier is more hunting pressure because i live near Milwaukee. Here is the situation encounter when scouting i find deer sign that is really good but it very hard or impossible to hunt from a tree even with a tree saddle because thier is so much brush i have sometimes i can only get a 15yd shot because so thick. I hunt mostly small parcels 500 acre or less and 100% public land ( i do hunt larger parcels up North). I was not able to scout this spring because i sprained my ankle and alot of family obligations but i did some find new locations that really but i didn't scout yet. The deer ratio of county i hunt is 18 deer per square mile and 1.8 bucks per square mile.

I plan on buying a ghillie suit that fits in my back so i am ready on the ground when necessary. I enjoy hunting from the tree more and this would the first Year hunting on the ground ( i am in my late 40s). I learned this method from the podcast the truth from a stand and the guy from the hunting public who's tall and curly hair. I also plan on using a Montana doe deer decoy the one has head on the ground and is feeding .
1) my question is this what is a ghillie suite that fits well in my back pack and i can use cold weather , that also good camfloge for both marshes habitat and using in the woods. That would also fit over regular camafloge suite.I never used a ghillie suite before so it will be my first time ever.

If anyone hunts this style that has advise for me let me know. With the type of land i hunt and hunting situations find myself it seems its the only way to hunt now.
