re: Clothing for Cold Weather Hunting

As a person who lives and hunts in northern Minnesota, I can affirm that no one up here hunts in sitka or under armour.

Damn I knew there weren’t many people that live in Minnesota but it’s pretty crazy that you know every one of them.

I am sure that those companies make fine products, but the key to staying warm is layering. you dont need expensive gear to stay warm, even in the coldest of conditions.

I’m a believer in layering as well, but the issue is being too constricted by too many layers on extremely cold mornings. It was in the low 20s here in Arkansas this past weekend, and I had 5 layers on on top and was still cold:
- undershirt
- long john shirt
- fleece mock turtleneck
- fleece pullover
- Drake eqwader pullover coat/jacket

If I can replace 2 or even 3 of those layers in order to move better, sign me up.

I may look into the First Lite stuff, but I also really like what I’ve seen from UA on the hunting front.
