Title: Late season/winter camo
Post by: Brad Harshman on September 01, 2018, 09:17:29 PM: What does everyone hunt in during the late seasons? I tried hunting late season a few years back and I found I didn't have adequate hunting pants for wet snow. I felt like my layering system on top was adequate but my pants were soaked.

I'm looking at Cabelas wooltimate stuff but I'm not sure and I'm hoping to get recommendations from seasoned winter hunters. Thanks in advance!

Brad

I didnt like the guide jacket hood so I had it tailored off, came out good.
