S'plain Something To Me.....

9.5/10 when I'm watching a hunting show and the temperatures are cold where they're hunting the "stars" are always wearing a baseball hat.  Inevitably all they have on is a fairly light looking jacket too!  I don't know about you guys/gals but I'm bundled up like the Michelin Man.

Once in a great while they'll yank a winter hat OVER their ball cap.  To me that's about the most uncomfortable way to wear a hat..........

WTH is up with these guys?

Clothing variation is always a big problem with me. When things get cold, I start piling on the layers. Next thing I know, I am having collisions between the string and all the puffed out clothing. Also I can get so much clothing on that it starts effecting my stance and head positioning. Most times I wind up having to make sight adjustments depending on what I'm wearing.

This year, I am going with a heated (electric) jacket to keep the bulk down, but still stay warm enough.

The guys on TV don't have to dress too heavy because they just have to stay warm enough to last until the guys chase the deer out of the pen and past the stand.......lol.

I wear cold gear the stuff is amazing, I have three sets light med and heavy.the med are the main pair I wear. the heavy set gets put on when temps drop below thirty.i'm a hot head so a thin face mask and a cap. my problem is the feet but I got a tip on here and will try deodorant this year.

Me too...it's two jackets and insulated underwear,a fleece shirt and at least 3 layers on the legs...Mr.B" How the hell do you walk let alone draw a bow?"  Lol I have a Cabelas camp extreme weather suit...old. That is just one layer under in really cold hunting...but it's way bulkier than all the layers....but I have sat 8 hours in 10 below zero at camp in that using my slip on boot insulators,full mask and ski goggles.

My thing is...where are their breaths??? They whisper...We had a cold front move through last night, it's 28 degrees,,they should be on their feet.  Not a breath to be seen...I did that and it would look like I had a fog machine shooting out of my head...lol

I generally dress alot lighter than most people I hunt with. I very rarely wear any long johns or any gloves and and usually I just wear a camo cap no tuke. If it's wicked windy I will pull up my hood on my jacket. I especially dress very light on the walk in nothing worse than working up a sweat on your way to your stand. I have never been one to get cold easy but I don't take the heat well.

It could be -10°, and the hunting "stars" still have to wear the baseball caps with their "sponsor's" logo. And to not cover up the pretty face, with all the make up for the "lady stars". After the camera captures the money shot, they quickly put on the balaclava, and shiver uncontrollably! Like the rest of us mere mortals.
