Who uses what for bowhunting in wet weather? I was looking at Cabela's Revolution Dry Fleece........uninsulated. I like the looks of the pull over jacket and the pants have cargo pockets. I was about to buy a new uninsulated camo suit but thought why not get one that is also water proof, suppose it could be worn at any time.

Ive been using the Browning pac jacket and pants for a number of years now and it works pretty good, its quiet, light weight and very packable, the only downside to me is the pants. They don't have any pockets, no zipper and the lower legs don't open up enough to put them on over boots, but they do keep me dry.

I wear the Cableas MT050 gore-tex bibs amd jacket. I believe it is packable if you get it without scent lok. I have the scent lok uninsulated outfit. It works great just wearing layers to keep warm once the temps drop.
Real light weight, nothing sticks to it, sheds briars really well, 100% water proof and 100% wind proof. Great setup.

Rivers West out of Seattle Washington makes great water proof clothing.It Is really well made and can be used in cold weather as well.It is quite quiet,not as quiet as fleece but rugged.In a hardwood forest it is plenty quiet,in a conifer forest nothing is quiet enough except fleece and wool.
Very nice people at Rivers West!
