Do they make and do any of you guys use some sort of tight camo sleeve on those bulky jackets for the cold cold days of bowhunting??

The reason i ask is because when i am all bulked up in late season i worry about the string hitting my jacket and throwing the arrow. I figured i would see what you guys do before i start hunting around for one! THANKS!!!

You can use the EZ arm guard. It will fit right over your sleeve and keep it snug on your arm. Heres the link... http://www.realtree.com/store/detail/5/startat/1/s/0/

I use an arm guard that has long adjustments. I had an arrow deflected once. Never again.

Head to the local drug store and get one of those elastic knee supports and a handful of permanent markers in the colors you want. Use the markers to turn it into your own custom camo... It'll probably take a little experimenting to find the right size to snug down your cold weather gear but it'll get the job done.

It's easier to get on if you slide it over your jacket sleeve first, then put on the jacket rather than trying to stretch that thing over all your clothes.

cabelas sells one called camoskinz, has a thumb hole and cuts off across your palm....really comfortable, doesnt affect shot, and really cuts down on the bulk of the jacket. the realtree one looks as if it compresses more though, so idk. i loke my camoskinz but if i had to buy another one id try the realtree one just to see how it works.
