RE: " Summer" Hunting Season.....
bigbulls,
I know you are a big boy and can choose your own sleeping bag. Just wanted to share a little negative experience that caught us off guard. Part of my wife going along to be the camp chef it that she doesn' t have to sleep cold. So we have propane heat in the sleeping area which is fine; however, we always want to be bagged up so if something happens to the heat in the middle of the night that its no big deal and we work on it the next day, so.......
We bought her a Cabelas 3-D 30 below bag. Very warm, very nice but.... they put the zipper in the " corner" of the 3-D construction and the zipper right in the 90 degree part and it catches easily on the " little flaps" that run parallel to the zipper. It works great if someone on the outside zips it shut for her, but doing it herself from the inside (which always puts things a little bit on an angle bind) it catches regularly.
Our older " plain" supposedly inferior bags that simply have the zipper midway down the side (thus located in a 180 degree side not a corner). These bags are advertised for large people or in my wifes case people that want to have some " roll around" room inside the bag -- not so claustrophobic. We thought we were getting the best thing since sliced bread, thank goodness we only bought one of them. FYI.
Never Go Undergunned,
