Bowhunting is not for the faint of heart. But fortune favors the bowed.

Re: Getting chilly. Cold days are upon us
kinda hard to acclimate to weather being cold here.... In Western New York one day is 60 the next is 20 .. I started switching everything back to wool last year even to the socks and long underwear.. Any more once i have to force myself to stay and freeze its no longer fun to me and hunting is suppose to be fun.

I appreciate all the responses
Ive went merino base layers the wool prima loft wool pants
For up top. Merino wool base. Long sleeve tee a sweater type zip up and my drake stand hunter coat.
Its a sweet deal.
Im going for the heated vest for bday though and i also heard the heats insoles for boots are awesome.
One thing if my feet get cold im done.
I dont know hiw some of these guys could fill up their boots with water. Keep pushing on and sit in a stand for hours. Wow. Id be definitely missing toes lol

I even shower with water cold enough that makes it “slightly uncomfortable” for me to be in there. It helps a lot.
I do believe this works i really do.
But man its harder and harder too sit still on stand when your cold. Which being still is in my opinion very important.
I can go all day scouting , out and about, working in yard , etc. with just light tee or a light flannel but for some reason anymore i get cold on stand
LOL what? Thats your best advice for a guy looking to stay warm, take a cold shower? One word IWOM. Pricey but I can say I've never heard of a guy not loving one after using it.
Yes cold shower! What also works well in frigid conditions is filling your boots with icy water from a nearby stream

Life is hard; It’s even harder if you are stupid.

Re: Getting chilly. Cold days are upon us
I hunt Wisconsin and the UP.... I am use to cold weather, so what your hunting in, to me would be like summer,,,, however when I get cold or its going to be a truly cold day, and that is different for all of us, I simply put on my HBS. Rolls up easy,,, on my back easy, no need for any heavy clothing, or really heavy boots. Tough to beat a Heater Body Suit........... best investment I ever made
