If you ever carry your gun with a sling, the suit tends to tangle in a bipod if using one. I think that if you hunt areas that cover is tough to find, then a top would not be a bad idea. But if you can find cover or shadows the suits are not necessary.

Like stated above use rocks bushes shadows trees to hide and break up your outline and you'll be fine. Use the money on fuel or ammo. Killed a couple in my work clothes which was blue jeans and a light gray shirt. The wind and sun were in my favor that day and luckily my aim was on.
Just a couple of the reasons we use the New Tac Con HVP hood from O'Neill Ops... lightweight, breathable for hot conditions, or easily used as a pull over for cold conditions, no pants to get hung up crossing fences etc. ergonomic front buckle provides easy use of a chest rig or bino pack, it's a high speed low drag system that works effectively while breaking up our outline while skylined or sitting, or total concealment (from the front and side) while going prone.
