Welcome and good luck. For your gear searches, don’t be afraid to post up specific questions on here, lots of experienced guys on here and most aren’t afraid to tell you what they think.
Just got back from an OK whitetail trip - mild and cold temps, but nothing crazy. I use layers and puffy pants (glassing) on my lower and don’t really care how bulky I am in my lower half. I don’t have to walk far and I move so little in stand noise isn’t an issue. I feel it’s critical to stay...

Starting tomorrow, REI is having a big 25-30% off sale and they have a bunch of OR Ferossi tops/bottoms/jacket, etc in the online outlet
