headnets

Who uses these during archery season- I started off way back when using one and the last few years have went without one-haven't been busted from a deer looking directly at me

I typically hunt high or utilize foliage - what are your thoughts - I feel too constrined with one

I do in the early season to keep gnats and mosquitos out of my ears. After that, not too much.

I like wearing a mask and tucking it into my coat so when I breath the warm air goes down into my coat to warm me up a bit.

RE: headnets

yeah, but cut a whole out so I could feel my anchor point better, and I can also use my calls and spit.

RE: headnets

I was planning on switchin to face paint, till i found these 1.50 head nets at walmart. They are a stretchy polyester fabric, and dont go over your whole head. Just a tube of fabric like a sleeve cut out of a tshirt. Best things since sliced bread. We bought 7 between two of us, but they are dwindling. I think they dissolve over time or something. If they stock them again this summer, I will buy out the shelf of them just to have. I use for turkey and bowhunting.

I think you are describing what I use...I got mine at Wal-Mart, too, but it was red-tagged for .50[&:]

I have 3 or 4 $20 masks from Bass Pro and Cabelas...even a $35 SB mask......and the .50 one is my favorite

Go figure.....

RE: headnets

I used them without fail untill three years ago. I havent used one since and not once can I say it has lessened my odds. Not even when I hunt on the ground, although if I did much still hunting I probably would want one. It is mostly because I always have my cap pulled down low, my collar up, and I dont move much at all anyway. I just feel they are constricting too. Always wear gloves though.
