Summer’s end brings start of hunting season
Whether hunting deer, birds or squirrels, appropriate early season clothing can influence success rates as well as enjoyment and comfort levels. Although most hunting pants, shirts and jackets found on store shelves are geared toward colder weather, early season hunters would be wise to use lightweight, predominantly green camouflage clothing and uninsulated boots. Brightly colored camouflage patterns will match the late-summer woods, fields and marshes. Cooler clothing and footwear will lead to more comfortable hunts, will decrease dehydration and will reduce sweat odor resulting in more time spent afield.
