A good pre-rut chill can kick deer movement into overdrive while serious cold settling in during the late season can inspire deer to move and feed, providing opportunity for the hunter on the ground (or in a tree). However, cold can also be as challenging to withstand for the hunter as it can be for the deer. In fact, as our bodies aren\u2019t acclimated or made to naturally withstand temperature extremes, it can be even tougher for us. For more hunters than can be counted throughout history, cold has spelled disaster for them as they encountered the harsh challenges unprepared or merely couldn\u2019t endure them after becoming lost. In the now infamous Armistice Day storm of 1940, when wicked white-out conditions hit the upper Mississippi River region of the Midwest, nearly 200 people lost their lives, at least half of them duck hunters who got caught in their storm.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, there wasn\u2019t the Weather Channel, weather apps on smartphones, Gore-Tex or Thinsulate back then, either, which made all the difference. Simply knowing bad weather is coming and appropriately preparing for it would make a similar tragedy virtually impossible today, though cold weather still claims lives every year. If it\u2019s that severe, maybe change your hunting days. But for those must-hunt days when the mercury simply plummets below the freezing mark and deer are on the move, get out there, but be prepared. Nothing gives a hunter\u2019s location away to deer quicker than when that hunter is stomping, jumping or simply walking around to keep warm. Comfort and warmth are key, not only to make your sit on a stand tolerable, but to also help you remain still so the deer never know you are there. Follow these common-sense strategies and products to help you beat the chill this deer season and be in your stand when that monster buck decides to move during the late season.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Dress In Layers<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_63573\" style=\"width: 333px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Cabelas-MTP.png\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"deer-camp-keeping-warm-temperatures-turn-cold\" title=\"Deer Camp: Keeping Warm When Temperatures Turn Cold\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-63573\" title=\"Deer Camp: Keeping Warm When Temperatures Turn Cold\" class=\"wp-image-63573 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Cabelas-MTP-e1474052152924-323x300.png\" alt=\"One of the author's favorites for really cold weather is Cabela\u2019s MTP Heavyweight Crew, made of a fleeced polyester that is super warm and super comfortable. \" width=\"323\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Cabelas-MTP-e1474052152924-323x300.png 323w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Cabelas-MTP-e1474052152924-150x139.png 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Cabelas-MTP-e1474052152924-768x713.png 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Cabelas-MTP-e1474052152924-1024x951.png 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Cabelas-MTP-e1474052152924.png 1052w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 323px) 100vw, 323px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-63573\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">One of the author&#8217;s favorites for really cold weather is Cabela\u2019s MTP Heavyweight Crew, made of a fleeced polyester. Image courtesy of manufacturer.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I still see hunters every year (mostly older ones; sorry Dad) who step from the warmth of a home or vehicle in just their flannel or camo shirt and hunting pants and put a single heavy coat on before walking to their stand. No doubt that coat will keep you warm; but walking to and from your stand it will also get you sweated up, which in turn creates moisture on your body and give you chills not long after you quit moving and are trying to get comfortable on the stand. Once those chills begin, they can be hard to beat; especially if you are planning on sitting outside in the cold for several hours. It\u2019s a mantra worth repeating: Dress in layers.<\/p>\n<p>Start with a good wicking base layer. Silk and Merino wool materials are best. Avoid the old-school cotton long johns. They hold moisture and will keep you soaked if you sweat. They also do little to actually keep you warm. I\u2019m also not a fan of clothing that clings to your body like the casing on a sausage. A little room for air, that can warm from your body heat and remain trapped inside the clothing, goes a long way to improve the insulating and warmth capability of the clothes. One of my favorites for really cold weather is Cabela\u2019s MTP Heavyweight <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cabelas.com\/product\/clothing\/men-s-hunting-clothing\/men-s-base-layers\/men-s-heavyweight-base-layer-tops|\/pc\/104797080\/c\/104748480\/sc\/104495580\/i\/104036580\/cabela-s-men-s-mtp-heavy-weight-crew-150-regular\/731102.uts?destination=%2Fcatalo\" campaign=\"DeerCampCabelasCrew\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Crew<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cabelas.com\/catalog\/product.jsp?productId=752621\" campaign=\"DeerCampCabelas\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Bottoms<\/a>, which are made of a fleeced polyester that is super warm and super comfortable.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond base layers, avoid cotton altogether when it comes to sitting outside in what is typically cold, damp weather when it comes to winter deer hunting. Choose clothing made of technical materials such as Gore-Tex lined garments that keep moisture out, but allow sweat vapor to escape. Go with light, loose pants and shirt, maybe a fleece or Polartec pull-over and a waterproof lined shell. If you choose to go with a heavier coat in extreme cold (wool still can\u2019t be beat for warmth), strap it to a pack or frame and tote it in with you, putting it on only after you have gotten into your stand or blind and cooled back down from the walk.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Protect Your Extremities<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_63577\" style=\"width: 244px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Peloton130_Glove-Verde2.0.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"deer-camp-keeping-warm-temperatures-turn-cold\" title=\"Deer Camp: Keeping Warm When Temperatures Turn Cold\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-63577\" title=\"Deer Camp: Keeping Warm When Temperatures Turn Cold\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-63577\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Peloton130_Glove-Verde2.0-234x300.jpg\" alt=\"Kuiu Peleton 130 liner gloves offer a lot of protection for your hands in the cold.\" width=\"234\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Peloton130_Glove-Verde2.0-234x300.jpg 234w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Peloton130_Glove-Verde2.0-117x150.jpg 117w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Peloton130_Glove-Verde2.0.jpg 531w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 234px) 100vw, 234px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-63577\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kuiu Peloton 130 liner gloves offer a lot of protection for your hands in the cold.

And because working opposable thumbs is so damn important to everything we do, from carrying a firearm to climbing a tree stand, you need to encase those babies in a set of gloves or mittens that will fight off the chill. I typically prefer a light pair of gloves that won\u2019t hamper the dexterity needed to operate the bolt or other action on a firearm, to reload, etc. Light gloves are enough to fight off the pain exposure of your skin to cold can cause while walking; but when in your stand, if needed, I can shove them easily into a hand-warmer filled pocket. For extreme temps, I like a mitten\/glove hybrid where my fingers are encased in partial gloves covered by a fold-back mitten end for when it is time to fire or pick stuff up. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cabelas.com\/product\/Cabelas-KidsMT-reg-Extreme-II-Glomitts\/1222751.uts?searchPath=%2Fbrowse.cmd%3FcategoryId%3D734095080%26CQ_search%3Dmt050%2Bextreme%2Bii%2Bglommitts%26CQ_st%3Db\" campaign=\"DeerCampCabelasGlomitts\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Cabela&#8217;s MT050 Extreme II Glomitts<\/a> are a great example of these.

You do, after all, need to walk back from your stand at some point, and it\u2019s hard to do that on legs that feel like nubs. Don\u2019t skimp on boots. They tend to be expensive and there\u2019s a reason for that \u2026 if made right, they will keep water and cold out, and warmth and comfort in. If you are doing a lot of walking or live in an area where temps mostly flirt with freezing, select a good leather or Cordura mix boot with 400 to 600 grams of Thinsulate or a comparable insulating material. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.danner.com\/product\/hunt\/pronghorn-8-mossy-oak-break-up-infinity-400g.html\" campaign=\"DeerCampDanner\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Danner Pronghorns<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rockyboots.com\/rocky-cornstalker-gore-tex-waterproof-insulated-hunting-boot\/RKYS085.html?dwvar_RKYS085_color=48#cgid=6&amp;start=1\" campaign=\"RockyCornstalkers\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Rocky Cornstalkers<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.underarmour.com\/en-us\/mens-ua-brow-tine-hunting-boots-400g\/pid1240079-946\" campaign=\"DeerCampUnderAmor\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Under Armour Brow Tines<\/a> are all great options.<\/p>\n<p>For extreme temps, short walks and long sits on a stand, a good set of pac boots with 1,200 to 2,000 grams of Thinsulate and\/or removable insulating liners are the way to go.
