Title: best deal on sitka gear
Post by: buglebuster on August 04, 2011, 11:32:12 PM

Was wondering if anyone has found the best deal on sitka gear?

Also, how quiet are the sitka pants?
Thanks   :tup:

Ive gotten the best deals on camofire and mountain archery.com. The 90% are usually what I wear and are plenty quiet for me.

The 90% are great in later seasons but, in my opinion, too hot for early season.  True, I'm bowhunting in September, so if you're a rifle hunter it might not be as big of a deal.

Lately I've worn the Ascent pants in the early season and/or the Mountain Pants if I'm hunting up high where it might be a little cooler.  Last year, for instance, I hunted high and it was crappy, rainy weather in September and the Mountain Pants were perfect.  In truth, the 90% would've worked for a couple of mornings because it was downright chilly.

In November late seasons the 90% pants are awesome.

The suggestions of where to purchase are good.  Also, http://www.high-mountain-outfitters.com (http://www.high-mountain-outfitters.com) have frequent sales on Sitka.
