It's far too cold to wear rubber boots during our deer season.The temperatures are often -20 degrees or colder.

Rubber boots would be ok for the early part of archery season but like stubblejumper mentioned, we wouldn"™t last the day with rubber boots in our weather conditions at -20 degrees..

Yep, I wear Muck boots as my rubber boot selection. When it turns colder, I go for the Schnees pack boots and later, Rocky Bear Claws.

I only wear rubber boots when I absolutely have to and this usually is only spring bear, early archery or sept elk season. I prefer a boot that offers more support and doesn't fatigue me when hoofing it!

I wear those "Mickey Mouse" boots in cold weather here. Military issue with the air valve on the side. Look stupid but work very well
