BassPro has the Enduraskin that is very light and easy to wear in the summer. I don't think I have worn face paint in over 20 years.

Do you guys use the charcoal based paint or the cheap clay base? I found the clay is a little bit stinkyer, I also find the charcoal doesn't last as long though!

I like the carbopaint w/ the charcoal base.
hands/face/neck and ears I've been painting the ears, cause mine tend to stick out those wings are like my ears lol

Underarmour gloves are where its at! They are light weight, good camo pattern and don't they don't mess with your shooting. I wear mine all season long. And no messy, prob botched paint job on your hands.
If you ever tried these, guys....you'd never go back. They're awesome. I went through 10 pairs, I'd bet....before I found these. They're thin enough to use the release on the outside.....and I still can get my hands in the little thing I wear around my waist to keep my hands warm. The facemask by underarmour is equally as nice.

Just my .02

The area that I hunt is by a pond. Usually in the early part of the bow season when it's hot here in Oklahoma, I'll just walk over and get a little mud from the pond and rub it on the back of my hands. The skeeters are pretty bad in the early part of the season here and for some reason, the mud keeps 'em off my hands. I still wear a face net to keep the skeeters out of my ears though. Later on when it starts to get cooler, I wear gloves.

Yep, I'll use mud long beforeI buy paint, it works the same at cutting down the glare and costs a heck of a lot less. I've done it a lot in a pinch when forgeting my mask.
