I'm somewhere between Jmatt1957 & Leatherneck on this one. Nothing is perfect but fleece and wool are still favorites in my book.

I still have to laugh. . . sure do not know everyone's situation. . . but here in KS, every inch of your clothes will be impregnated with burrs and sticks-tights.  SERIOUSLY.  I had one of those "quiet" rain suits on the other day- I could not moved my legs or arms they were so enmeshed with stick-tights.  Sounded like velcro every time I moved.  It was almost funny if not so frustrating.   :banghead:  

You guys from other states may have the same thing, but I am not convinced.  You may get away with wool here, but I can NOT EVEN imagine seeing a guy with fleece pants on!

Bears can attack people- although fewer people have been killed by bears than in all WWI and WWII combined.

The cat sized curry comb, which is actually a metal band w teeth,  bent into a loop, with a cheap leather handle,   works great.  Been usng one for years.

A ranch where we hunt has an old blue heeler dog that would litterally pick them off whith his teeth if you sat there long enough. Craziest thing I ever saw, he wouldn't bite you but would just nibble them off with his front teeth. He would work at it as long as you would sit still. Rancher said he figured he was obsessive compulsive.
