I hunt in South Florida where its pretty hot until at least November most seasons. For hunting gear I use long sleeve cotton camo shirts, cotton camo pants, and Rocky snake boots. I spray my gear down with Repel Permanone which takes care of most of the mosquitoes, ticks, and chiggers. The Permanone last for two weeks or a couple of washings. For the exposed skin areas I use a high percentage of deet repellant. This is the coolest setup that I have been able to come up with that still gives good protection. Depending on the hunt I also use military camo on my hands and face which is cooler than using a face mask and gloves. As others have mentioned walk fairly slow not to workup a sweat, hunt high and watch the wind.

Aim Hard!
