OK my fellow Bunny Hunters!!! Here's another stupid question!!!

How many of you folks plan on wearing a fleece outer layer for the Bunny Hunt???

Last year we did a ton of walking and my old outashape butt was sweatin' ALOT!!!!!!! Well I posted a thread a while back asking a bunch of questions about fleece and 2 of the most common possitive coments were that it's "Very Breathable" and "Fast Drying". Well if my old butt is gonna be sweatin' buckets,then it sounds to me like fleece is the perfect answer. It was also suggested last year that we all wear something Blaze Orange for safety sake. I just happen to have a Realtree Blaze Orange Camo fleece jacket that I think would cover all the bases. I only have 1 concern... I don't care if the jacket comes home in one piece... I just don't want to get tangled so bad that Shawn has to come back and cut me loose with a chainsaw!!!
I only shoot WOOD arrows... My kid makes them, fast as I can break them!

There is a fine line between Hunting, & Sitting there looking Stupid...

May The Great Spirit Guide Your Arrows..... Happy Hunting!!!

Chuck...I didn't wear fleece because those briars would have held me captive as I waded through them. I'm just using an old army jacket with those heavy wool pants. I don't want those briars to latch on to anything...although my face and hands took quite a beating!

I wore it as a top last year and will probably wear the same top this year, adds to the workout factor!  Pants will be different this though, my legs took a beating wearing plain old jeans!

Ya got to wear brush pants and heavy duty ones. I have some nastier stuff tyhan last year to bust through. I would never wear fleece as it woulod be torn to shreds on the first push I do!! I go thru a new pair of brush pants every two years and they are tough. I wear a t-shirt and a light sweatshirt, even if it is rewal cold as I would work up a sweat if I was butt-assed naked!! I am taking a walk later with the KS and my beagle and see if I can get a shot or two!!! OOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! Shawn

I think all the shots on my site are from Curt... should really put that on the site (sorry).

I may post a few "teaser" pics for some special things I'm bringing... haven't decided yet.  Unless I screw up they're gonna look GOOD!  Should know by Sunday if I'm gonna screw up!   :knothead:  

It'll be nice to finally meet you Ken!    :campfire:
