I saw the special on discovery and saw snipers on there. I was wondering what kind of suit they used. It was like nothing and then they stuffed leaves into it. I want one of these so bad and if you could tell me what and where to get one I would be so greatful!!!

I am confused,...why did they only cover thier upperbody...i mean wouldn't you find it odd when you see a pair of legs sticking out of a "bush/pile of leaves", as well as how they got the leaves their in the first place.

You mean the Ghillie Suit? Check the search engines to roder for one. It costs around $300-400. If you want it cheap, just get green shirt, put paste in it and place the leaves all over it...saves you $300-400!

The best way to make a good homemade ghillie suit is to get a big fishnet of somekind then go to your local Army Navy store and pick up some green, brown, and khaki burlap straps and stick those all in the wholes of the fishnet so that it covers it all up, then bind them all on, put some kind of lining for the inside of it and your set. when out in the woods you can also stick extra camo in it (leaves, twigs, moss), whatever to blend in with your surroundings! Happy Making!

Actually a replacement vollyball net at walmart would be best you can make 1 or 2 full suits with it and it only cost about $12, also use unsented dental floss to sew it on and after they are sewnm on cover each stich with a dap of shoe-goo. search around for some sites that will showe you how too cut the net.
I knew they used Guillie Suits but on the show i saw no netting at all it was like they had pockets all over
