Three main things about wearing the ghillie suit. If you snag it on barbed wire or a big branch, it won't break and can make you fall (you have to physically unhook it)
Second, it is hard to belly crawl or walk on your knees because of the front flap. They sell them without the front flap but I like having it. You just need to roll it up and carry it with you while you're crawling etc. or move it to the side of your body/legs.
Third, it gets quite heavy when totally soaked.
Once you learn to keep it as dry as possible, and learn how to keep it from snagging on things, it's easy. It's rare that I have any trouble.
I would caution you from walking into briers or other things with thorns (including plants with burrs)
I don't even try to go photographing without it!
