I've used a buff turkey hunting but prefer a mesh mask. I've got a scent loc hat facemask combo I wear when deer hunting. I try and pull it down though before bow shoot. Cause I like to feel the string on my face. I face paint sometimes on the weekends when I don't have to worry about washing it off all day

Naked face, never been a problem ^^^^^This. I usually hold my bow in front of my face as anything approaches, and it breaks up the outline of the face. Anchor points are different with a facemask on. I'm not willing to sight in and practice with a facemask on so I don't hunt with one. It's never cost me a deer.

i use face paint. can't stand wearing a mask when shooting my bow. i have used carbomask and it is good stuff and easy to get off. the last couple of years i have been using the Dead Down Wind face paint. it has 3 or 4 colors and its easier to apply than carbomask. It comes in a mini deodorant stick so you just roll it up and smear it on without ever touching it. it comes off just as easy as carbomask does. http://www.deaddownwind.com/shop/Products/4-Color-Face-Paint__1255BC.aspx

Carbomask is some good stuff. It dries quickly and removal is a breeze.

Do you wear a headnet, face mask, face paint, or have a naked face while hunting? I wear face paint. After having to let off on a bull to remove a lightweight mask, I switched over to face paint. I did draw again and wack him though. Pain in the butt getting the paint off but, I haven't lost a mask since and can hear a little better as well. It's just to risky stalking a herd of elk to me to be bare-faced. Too many eyes looking for trouble I don't hide face in a tree stand......but I bet you are on the ground? Probably apples to oranges.

sometimes i use face paint, sometimes i'm naked, only use a face mask if it extremely cold, and then its a fleece neck gator I pull up to my nose.

Paint, but just enough to knock the "shine" off in early season.
Mask in late season if it gets cold.
I'm always facing north in any set so the sun is to my back at some direction...morning or evening. I've found this to be more important than hiding my face with mask or paint.
Ya'll are just overthinking it now

What he said. Carbomask is the ticket. Been using it for years. I always take several tubes on elk hunts and just leave them in the bathroom at the lodge. It doesn't take but about 2 days and everyone in camp is using it. GREAT PRODUCT!!!!

The best thing you can use to remove face paint is unscented baby wipes.
