Related to "When It Gets Cold". Has anyone used one of these. It is like a sleeping bag with suspenders inside. You unzip it and let it fall off your shoulders when you get ready to shoot. That way you can wear less clothes for the walkinand have plenty of string clearance.

I was thinking about trying one for the late season. But am interested in your experiences. Can't seem to take the cold as well as I used to on those long sits.

I think it would create too much movement when you have to get ready for a shot. Unzip, let it fall, lots of things that could potentially go wrong at the moment of truth. It does look warm though and if you have enough time to see the deer and get ready it could be effective.

EverythingI've heard and read about this suit has been real good. I personally have never used one but I've considered it for my Alberta hunt this year.

Isn't the body suit the same as a fancified sleeping bag ???

You would release it off your shoulders and let it slide down and all of your smell would come right out and that big bruiser comin in would wind you for sure!

I just don't see this one. I don't think I see enough deer to risk using this and spooking them. I carry my bow the entire time I hunt just to make sure that if the time comes I'm ready. I'm also wondering do you put it on before you climb the tree or once you're in the stand. Either way seems exessive.

Good concept if you have so many deer that you wouldn't care if you spooked a few.

You put it on after you get up in your stand , it would be difficult to do the other way.
