Boots

What's a good pair of boots to get for bow hunting early season deer?

Really depends a lot on where you are.  Usually early season here I wear snake boots.   Been pretty happy with cabelas lines of boots.  If I were hunting elsewhere that it was colder and less potential for venomous snakes would likely just wear a pair of 400 gram thinsulate rubber boots.

I wear Muck boots most of the time. I think mine are Fieldblazers. They are probably the lightest pair of hunting boots I've worn as far as weight goes. They are great if temps are between about 30-60 degrees. Anything colder & my feet get cold.

i used to wear pretty much muck boots only, got a pair of Irish setter 400 gram boots last year that i really enjoy wearing now, much lighter than the muck boots and more comfortable, pretty much wear them all the time unless i expect to have to walk through a lot of water or if it's gonna be too cold.

Depends on the temp.  I use uninsulated Lacrosse rubber boots when it's warmer.  Muck boots (they are light) when it's cooler down to about 35 degrees.

Can get cold here later in bow season, morning hunts can be chilly;  I use these, Alpha Burly by Lacrosse 1000 grams.

I like wearing my LaCrosse AeroHead boots. Very comfy and durable.

Wouldn't happen to have any more suggestions on some elk hunting boots, would anyone? Thread is not really alive anymore, I am in search of better equipment for my hunting trip. Well, it's more of a group of hunters getting together for a hunt. I think that I have picked mostly what I want, like the shooting gloves, the jacket etc. But boots are another story. I do know that hunting boots fall into one of three categories – Early Season, Midseason and Late Season. So, I've been reading online at http://huntingfishingplus.com/best-elk-hunting-boots and I think I like the review on "AD TEC MEN’S 11" boots. The boots seem to be affordable, fairly durable. I also forgot to mention that I am somewhat new to the whole hunting game. I've been into this hobby for about a year now. Would like to see all the options as I have not yet 100% made my choice. Just asking around and looking for some advice.

HeadShot, I would look more into hiking boots for elk.  I've tried hunting boots, then went to Keen, SO much easier to hunt in than boots when it comes to the mountatins.  That's just my opinion though.
