How do you keep the wind from...

Ok, a Cabela's wool windshear sweater on the way. I have also been pricing some new outer layers. Natural gear and sticks and limbs are in the front ot the pack for now. Both can be purchased with insulation and wind defeating options.

Hey buddy, Just remember the further out you can keep your windproof layer, the warmer you'll stay.

I know some will wear something to break the wind, but still get cold because the wind is still blowing through a couple outer layers before it's stopped. A lot of warmth lost this way.

Good luck!

I get behind the biggest tree i can find and that is a nice wind blocker,,, otherwise any sporty wind breaker put on under the camo,,, or like someone above said nothing beats a nice rain suit.

I use the Cabelas windshear sweater and it works great. but if it is cold and i need to put on my KOM bowhuters jacket and it is windy I'll put my peter storm raingear over it to block the wind. The peter storm is whisper quiet and blocks the wind nicely.

Not wind related but cold related...

Most people loose a lot of heat from their head.
My Army Drill Sergeant used to say if your feet are cold put on a stocking cap and if they're still cold put on another one.

I also prefer the cabelas windshear sweaters and pants.

Have you guys seen these on the G Fred Asbell website? Teresa just sent me one yesterday, so I haven't had a chance to try it out. But the theory is to wear this as a botom or mid layer, to block wind and retain heat. They are on the website...simple, inexpensive. I will give a full report after this weekend. We have some cold weather on the way and I need one more deer!

The rest of my cold wind answer.....wool, and something on my head and neck. Nothing drives me out of the tree quicker than a cold wind on my neck.

Cabelas has productswith windstopper built in or did, I have two of their garments and they work the best. Shawn
