I'm glad to see you guys having success, especially the beginners. congrats on knocking those car smashers down.
I've been too busy to get in a tree even once this year...and to rub some salt in the wound I even let another guy hunt my farm this past week..... |

On a sadder note my grandfather's Brittany pup got into his facial cream for his skin cancer and died. So I'm on the lookout for a male Brittany spaniel to get behind my 8 year old.

Next year I will do more delegating at work and just make a week of vacation to bow hunt. My boy is getting closer to that age too so i need to get some of that man-school going too. |
My friend and I both got our elk last week. I shot a nice 5x5 and he shot a 5 with a broken main beam. Can't seem to post pictures. It says I have a missing security certificate.

So it's a process, and one that's pretty cool to watch them mature through. |
I have a question, It was pretty freaking cold 3 out of the 4 days of our hunt. I was layered up pretty good but I just can't keep my feet warm. I use some Merino Wool socks that I use for skiing but after a couple hours in the stand my feet start getting cold. My boots are insulated either 600 or 1000 grams I can't remember. I did try a pair of those insoles made by the hand warmer folks. I don't think they really helped.
What do you guys use to keep your feet warm? |

If you noticed your feet did sweat then that's the problem. I don't think wool is recommended anymore. Get some wick away socks to keep moisture away from your skin.

Carry extra layers into the field and put them on out there after you've cooled off from the walk in. That's always a good idea. |

jk. It depends what kind of hunting. If you're bow hunting, I'll give you a tip. Buy a $30 camo sleeping bag, sew a couple of shoulder straps into the top....unroll, get in, stay warm. I'm a big believer in hand warmers...I'll keep a couple in my pockets and I'll wear a tight second layer and put one in my back below my neck and one on my chest somewhere. Just having something warm touch a little skin seems to help me feel warm. |
