Default RE: Sweat! Hot weather hunting tips?

I sweat like a pig so I have to really plan out the hot days. Mornings aren't so bad, it's the afternoons that get me. I have a very thin bug suit that is several years old. I don't even remember the brand. I generally wear a thin cotton t-shirt and camo shorts to the stand. I move very slow and easy. Once I am up, I change my shirt and put on the bug suit and face mask. I carry bottled water, scent killer towelettes and a wash cloth in a zip lock bag. I always try to hunt in shady areas, creek bottoms and such. The problem is you may give up just a little breeze to get into the shade. It's not so much the heat as the humidity!
