Default RE: Cold (Talking Freezing Here) Weather Tactics


scow -

Shorts & a t-shirt!!! A little too warm for me....

Going out Friday AM. Weather.com says to expect 0 or below with wind-chill.

So - here is my plan of attack.

Feet (smartwool socks, heatmax toe/foot warmer, polyrop socks, rubber boots)

Body (expedition weight thermals, cotton turtleneck, thin wool sweater, suppresscent top, thick cammo shirt, fleece sweatshirt, windstopper pullover, suppresscent pants, thick cammo pants and finally - cammo bibs & jacket shell)

Head (Super thick balaclava, cammo shell mask)

Hands (Thinsulate gloves with NOMEX type trigger finger, heatmax hand warmer)

I'm thinking this should do it. If not, I'm only up in the stand for around 3 hours. I have tried it out & I can still shoot, but I loose some peripheral visibility.

Comments?
