I'm sure this has been kicked around in the past but I can't remember how long ago.

Which do you prefer: a face mask or half-mask, or paint/dirt/beard? Or, nothing at all?

I'm not a paint guy but will grab a handful of dirt or whatever and smear it on my mug to knock off any shine. Cheap, too. I always figure a face mask might get hung up on the string or release and be a hinderance.

After I grew out my beard, I started using paint. Easy to get off, and I don't feel constricted.

If any of you paint guys don't mind, recommend a few brands of paint that are good. And by good I mean scent-free, mess-free, easy to wash off, etc...

Face mask. Tried paint once and took me three days to get it off.

Paint cause my 8 year old thinks it is cool to look like a sniper. Buy the liquid kind. Not the women's eye shadow container kind.

Carbomask paint for me. I can't stand a face mask when bow hunting.

Face paint and keep wet wipes handy to remove it.

Beard for most of the face, use black paint for what the beard doesn't cover. And no fancy designs like all the goofy TV Hunters , just kinda smear it on.

I love a thin mesh facemask for turkey hunting, but tried one for bowhunting once and couldn't stand it.
