I have not tried Kennetrek but I would highly recommend Schnees.  I have a pair of Schness that I have had for a bunch of years that have been resoled once and by far are my favorite boot of that type.
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

Kennetreks are great pacs. I have a pair that I wear when the snow flies and the wind blows, and they keep my feet comfy, dry and warm.

Hoffman makes a great lightweight pac boot too.  I have heavy pair of Schnees and light pair of Hoffmans.

I love my kenetrek grizzlies. I hiked about 10 miles in them one day and feet felt good. Can't go wrong with kenetreks plus the price is good to.

I have a pair and like them but they might be sized a little tight so try them first if you can.

I should have ordered one size up since as it is now, I can only wear one pair of socks. I couldn't return them because the store ordered them special for me and had told me that beforehand.
May your next adventure lighten your heart, test your spirit, and nourish your soul.

I have a pair of Grizzlies and love them. Very high quality and came with a jar of leather treatment.

i have the northerns.  they are great. i had to go a size up too  as i felt the rubber footbed was on the tight side.  they are as warm as my mickey boots. the customer service was great. i believe they are outsourced products if that matters to you.  schnees are slightly better in the quality dept. but but only minutely and ive seen a pair of schnees break in badly and were worthless after.  either is a fantastic choice and close enough id say a personal inspection is needed to really determine a preference.
If your shooting stinks, work with a Form master.  It'll bring back your A game.
