I think I'm going to order one. I'm 6'3" and a cookie away from 240. Do you think large would do it? XL's are all BOed. Thanks Guys

I'm 6' 185, and the large fits me well, I think the large might be a bit snug for 6'3" 240.

Good friend was / is 6'2 and went over 300#...he had the XL...

Aside from the smell of the Rio Rancho version of burlap, it's HOT!

he had to trim some to shoot bow.

Funny part was his Rotweiler...he put that on with the head cover and that dog about turned inside out!

He'd talk to the dog and it would want to come, but it didn't trust it... I didn't help rolling on the ground laughing! It kept backing away barking... it didn't know what to do!  Attack or run for the hills!

I think it believed s omething awful ate his beloved master!   :jumper:

RS has ( or, at least had) an ultra light version, which is what I ended up with.  Yup, you can get hot in it, but so far that has only happened in TX.  Mine has no burlap and comparing it to others, has less "stuff" on it.  It packs smaller and works just as well, based upon my experiences.

Doc, that also works on Halloweeners ! OMG

Chuck,

I bought a Ghillie (string) Suit from an online outfit... A guy I know said he put his on, sat in a rocker on his porch... when kids came trick or treeting...he'd sit listening to them after they rang his door bell, and then jump up yelling... he had to quit cause a couple kids peed themselves!

In today's world, I'd be afraid I'd get sued for something like terrorizing minors!
