Careful, electronic calls are a no-no during deer season. 
Such is life in the West and the further West the more the such.

When it is really cold I duct tape a toe warmer to the outside of my wool pant leg right where the femoral artery is closest to the surface, then stand (or sit) with my knees together. It warms the blood.

Poly pro under-layer from the neck to the toes. Wool shirt, wool vest, wool scarf, wool stocking hat, light weight wool pants (as in dress slacks) under heavyweight wool pants. Smartwool socks, 2000 thinsulate rubber boots, jacket, fleece vest, balaclava, fingered wool glove on the bowhand, fingerless wool glove w/ leather shooting glove on the other. If I can't hang my bow I'll slip a toe warmer into the glove on my bow hand, too, to keep those fingers warm.
I'd just like to remind everybody that it's about the hunting, not just the killing. In other words, it's about the total experience, the sport itself and the challenge involved. Bowhunting, done right, is a justifiable and honorable pursuit. Done for the wrong reasons, simply chalking up kills and seeking personal glory, it's taking away rather than giving back to a principled way of life that has to be experienced to be understood.

Looks like everyone is doing the same thing by using toe, body warmer and hand warmers... I use alot of hand warmers and placing them inside my jacket, one behind the neck to warm up the spine, 2 tapped on both thighs, and my military issued fleece thermals.....
There is no hunting like the hunting of man, and those who have hunted armed men long enough and liked it, never care for anything else thereafter.

I have a heater body suit also, it does a good job but has a # of draw backs if its dead quite like when its real cold out makes it really hard to get ready for the shot. also getting it on and off in the tree, or climbing with it on in a self climber not good ether. if you havn't tryed the cabelas stand hunter suite, you are truely missing out on the best pice off clothing that we as a late season bow hunter has. it is very warm, better than the suit and prob. quiter than any other hunting clothing you own comes with a GOOD quality hand muff a must if you dont hunt with one yet. but same as the HS you should wait till you get close to your stand to put it on becouse of the how well it works. easy to get into legs unzip all way to the hip.

After spending a lot of late night hous, in the chilling cold, in Highseats, in Germany, hunting for Wildboar, I have come to love Loden.  I stay, toasty, warm and dry, even if it rains, and no movement makes a sound.  I have found that Loden pands and Parka work just fine.  It is not camoed, but the animals are color-blind anyway.

The rubberized doormat, from the Melissa Bachman YouTube clips, above, make a lot of sense, as well.

Yeah, nothing like a muff to keep your hands warm.
