stovepipe,

A good wool coat is still nicer then a GoreTex jacket. Its just not in "fashion" right now cause well you know hunters need camouflage cause animals are smarter then they were 30 years ago. Laughing

I like gore tex. Ive had artificial ligaments in one of my knees made from Gore tex for over 20 years now. its woven like a nylon rope with Teflon eyelets on the end. The drilled through the knee, pulled the gore tex through, pulled it tight and put screws through the eyelets into my leg and bones. You know your in trouble when they call it, " salvage surgery" ,, but it worked, and I have done fine with it for most of the time. Kept me from getting a replacement knee too. It kept me walking thats for sure. Dont keep my knee warm though.

But I do agree with you , the deer must be so much smarter than they were 3o years ago. just look at all the expensive things you need these days just to be able to hunt them. I hope they dont take over the world soon. First we had planet of the apes, next,,, planet of the Bambi's
and were not talking the blond Bambi's who dance with a chrome pole.

Right you are! I have a pair of wool swiss army surplus pants, they have belts on the cuff's and lace hooks and suspender loops and everything. These things are burly and perfect for layering. The pockets hold 4 boxes of 20g too!

Game aint smarter...the tools are duller...so we gotta dressum up more.
