Just curious who all wears face mask or paints their face?
I have tried face mask, but man they are warm and my glasses fog up.
 
I have early season head gear I can cover up my mouth and nose but I don't typically cover up my nose. I move it out of the way for a shot if possible.
 
Just grow a burly beard works better than paint. Also burn a cork it cheaper and better. use that instead of paint it'll come off easier and won't bread you out.
 
I used to for deer but as someone else said, I noticed no difference.
Only exception is when I hunt a stand that is facing the rising or setting sun.

Turkey, ALWAYS.
 
Yes. As for your glasses fogging take one drop of liquid dishwashing soap and rub it on both sides of the lense and then wipe them clean. Usually good for about a week. I do this every week for my son's rec specs he plays baseball and basketball in. Works like a charm.

For turkey ALWAYS. For hunting out of a stand I just put a little on my cheeks where I keep my beard trimmed. Works great for me. ;)

 
I wear paint this time of year since its too hot for a mask. Then a mask from about muzzy through the rest of the season. Seems to help from my observations
 
I hunt from the ground the majority of the time and a mask is an absolute necessity I think. I use a net mask and usually push the bottom of the opening down below my nose so that my glasses don't fog. They will almost every time if I let my breath go through the net. I am talking about cold weather only though. I don't hunt until ML season.
 
I ALWAYS wear a facemask, even if, in warm weather, it is just a mosquito-netting pull-over. A person's white face sticks out like a sore thumb from great distance, and any turn of the head is easily seen.
 
I always wear one during archery season because if a deer just happens to look up when in bow range I don't want them to see my big shiny face. During gun season I rarely wear one.

 
always wear one during bow. During gun not so much. Just a personal preference but not to fond of rubbing my face up with paint everytime I hit the woods when it takes one second to put a mask on and remove after the hunt.
 
I always wear one, even during rifle season. I use a polypropylene one that is really quite cool. I never pull it up over my nose.
 
Always

ASAT 3D Hood is fine in hot weather.
In the morning I wear a Merino wool ASAT Balaclava.
Usually use the Balaclava when moving through the woods...doesn't snag as easily.
