I have been looking at some new camo patterns for possible use in hunting agricultural field for geese and doves, specificly 'Natural camo' and Seclusion Open Country. Has anyone tried any of these yet? Any opinions would be appreciated.

I've got the Natural Gear camo and like it alot. I've hung it up next to some of my other patterns and it really does blend better from a distance than most of the 'fashion' camo patterns which all seem to turn into a dark blob from a distance. Natural Gear just works better for the Central Texas area where I am with its caliche (lighter brown to tan) soils and scrub. Only place it really sticks out is in front of our dark green cedar trees.
Now, having said that, I've still never seen a camo that really does a good job by itself in a field. You're much better off going into the field beforehand (if feasible) and cutting or collecting as much of the local vegetation as you can to cover yourself. If you want to get fancy but not buy those expensive ambush ground blinds, get a length or two of drab-painted chicken wire or something similar and weave your vegetation into it so you can just throw the whole thing(s) off yourself for a shot and quickly pull it back on top of you.
If you can't collect local vegetation, just get a couple of generic woven grass clumps (saw good ones in Cabela's waterfowl catalog) and lay 'em over you like a blanket.
Either option will hide you much better than just a camo outfit and you can reuse either just like camo.
