raingear

[cshore93]

I got a set of Yukon gear for my moose hunt last year. And i realize it is way over kill for colorado elk but i cant justify spending another 120-150 on lighter weight rain gear when what i have is bomb proof. Its only gonna save me like a pound. in my opinion if what you have has been working stick with it unless your going on a hunt that you know could be bad conditions.

Overkill isn't a bad thing! It will last and most certainly keep you dry wherever you decide to hunt. I love the Yukon gear, even though I don't always go to the harshest places all the time.

on budget you can get Frogg Togg and run them in drier in low temp with pair of sneakers.

Id imagine thats to quiet them down, whats that do to the water proofing quality of it?

I also recommend the cabelas space rain gear. As others mentioned it can tear easily, but if it's raining hard enough to warrant wearing it for an extended period of time I usually hunker down anyways.

Its durable enough to hold poor down for a day, then you have to let it dry overnight in warm room or tent.

Maybe you could skip the rain pants, use gaiters and put more money into a good jacket? I think I use my rain pants more in the snow than in the rain. Actually they got left behind a lot because I didn't want to pack the extra weight. I'm not planning on packing rain pants this year myself after listing to the Gritty.

I've never used rain pants, just a jacket. I always think about getting a pair, but never have.
