The Michelin Man Ain’t Got Nothing On Me

[Lawdwaz]

I’ve been gathering my least bulky cold weather gear the past 45 minutes. Tried a few different combos and I think I’m pretty good. Two pair long underwear tops (Patagonia then Minus 33) then a Patagonia R4 jacket, next up is a huge Stormy Kromer wool vest, all topped off with the KOM wool sweatshirt I practically live in for hunting. 

A Smartwool/Ulfrote full face pullover topped with a heavy camo knit hat.  Lower level is another Smartwool/Ulfrote piece that is super heavy knit then the KOM pants. 

Handwarmers and toe warmers for the hands and feet should round it out.  Oh and heavy pack boots. 

I have a pair of fingerless knit Jersey gloves for the hands too. 

I tried all the upper level stuff on and shot the bow better than anytime this year in the basement.  Go figure.......

I think I’m ready.

Now if only you can lure a buck into your basement, you're all set  !!....Hehehe..

Im bringing all the clothes in tomorrow, I'm hoping to sit all day if I can. Its a short walk in, if I take my time (not in my vocabulary) and dont get sweaty it will be a good start

Eat more bacon and donuts.  You still look like the Michelin man but far fewer constraining layers.

I have to say I am layered up pretty good and have been sitting since 1130 and it’s not bad yet. I am sitting in a stand on a big  ol pine tree so that’s helping with the wind.
