Hunting camo are mostly composed (if not entirely) of static friendly designs. Meaning they work best under no movement at all, and look very realisitically like the foliage around them. These do not perform well under military use conditions because of how static they are. Military camo , on the other hand, the camo is fairly dynamic in the sense is adapts to different areas and during movement.

Since I've sold tons of camo when I used to work at the archery shop here in Calgary, I can tell you that your statement is not completely correct. There are LOTS of camo patterns that are for dynamic movement. You have to use them especially when you go bow hunting because there can be lots of stalking involved. The purpose of camo is to break up the outline of a human being so that an animal (humans included) cannot recognize it. As such, any person in any camo type can be picked out in the bush provided that it is moving. I personally use "real-tree stalker" camo when I go and play airsoft and I can say from experience that it works just as well if not better than cadpat and other such military camo's whilst we're playing in the bush. It's simply because it has a more realistic blending pattern with the given surroundings.
