popgun Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Skivvies 2 pair of socks long underwear blue jeans heavy shirt two pair of insulated coveralls (1 Advantage Timber, and the other Hunter Orange Camo) insulated boots large over jacket with a lot of pockets two face masks ball cap with ear muffs insulated fingerless gloves/mittens combo Temperature 24* Time in stand, aprox. 18 minutes. It took me longer to get dressed this morning than I spent in the stand. Today was the day I decided to take a doe, and had four to choose from. The .243 barked at 7:15 a.m., and my doe was down. I don’t take extreme cold or heat well any more. I hope I can stay warm tomorrow morning, because I’m going back out. I had so many clothes on this morning that I could barely climb the ladder into my tri-pod stand. I must have weighed fifty lbs. over my natural weight. I had to drive the Mule to my stand and park directly under it. My wife said I looked like a big orange Pillsbury Dough Boy. The deer may like cold weather, but I simply hate it. ….popgun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichiganHuntr1 Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Re: “Baby…It’s Cold Outside” Congrats on the deer! LOL Orange Pillsbury Doughboy! You know, i tend to stay warm with a few layers, but not alot. I just make sure my clothes are loose enough to get air between my skin and them.

Tony Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Re: “Baby…It’s Cold Outside” spent all day on stand today. it was -2 with the wind chill this morning. but it warmed up a little. the sun being out sure helped. actually i was pretty comfortable on stand all day. layers are the key. i prefer wool sweaters and fleece coats. my toes got a little cold, but i took my boots off and put a chemical toe warmer in. Ahhhh thats feels good. saw a lot of deer also. Shoot Strong Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TnLadyhunter Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 Re: “Baby…It’s Cold Outside” Sometimes i pack on so much camo I feel like a big camoflauge ball I can't even move well but at least I am out there. As long as I can draw or pull I am good to go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
