bowhuntercop, did yours have a slit in the back for your safety harness. Saw it written in the add somewhere that they had a slit for this purpose.Bayou, its warm like they say, I got the windproof style and used cottonproof from nikwax to water proof it.Dont forget it weighs 7 pounds + your climber, if you use one.

Just checked again,no slit in it,they must have been in a rush to produce it,will just have to keep running it out behind my head.Suit is really warm.

After I saw this product I purchased a Mossy oak sleeping bag, and I modified it a bit. I cut the thing in half at the bottom and my wife sewed it back up to make the legs. Works perfect and I only paid $49.00 for the sleeping bag. Saved alot of money and it is VERY warm!


Whoever said there is no such thing as a stupid question has never worked in Law Enforcement.

Is it quiet? Do you think it is worth the trouble of moving that much to get a shot off?

I agree with Mathewsarcher, at that price you could buy a sleeping bag and pay somebody to alter it to match the suit and still have enough left over for a new treestand.
