Heater Body Suit

Post by XBHUNTR »

While reading some deer magazines, I came upon a item to keep warm in the tree stand. Has anyone used a Heater Body Suit. I'd appreciate a reply on the item and performance. To check out the article www.heaterbodysuit.com Thanks Ray. XBHUNTR #298.

HEATER BODY SUIT

Post by JUSTANUFF »

I HAVE ONE AND THINK IT'S GREAT FOR WHEN THE TEMPS GO BELOW 20 DEGREES.IT TAKES A LITTLE GETTING USED TO AS FAR AS GETTING IN AND OUT OF IT BUT I HAVE SAT IN SUB ZERO WEATHER FOR HOURS AND WAS WARM.THE NEW STYLE SUITS HAVE A LONGER ZIPPER INCORPORATED AND ELASTIC SUSPENDERS.BOTH REFINEMENTS MAKE THE SUIT MORE USER FRIENDLY AND COMFORTABLE.LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS.

:shock: Are you serious...below 20 degrees...heck that is still short sleeve shirt weather here in Canada!!!!!! :D :D Now if it were below -20 C degress then I might consider something like that but quite frankly, it would just be one more piece of equipment i'd have to carry into my stand...soon i'll need a tractor trailer to carry all my stuff in!!!!!!!!!! :D :D Brampton Mike 8)
If I can't hunt & fish in heaven....then I don't want to go!!!!!!!!!!

Hunting in 20 degrees Farenheight temps, you guys have it made in the shade !... I would love to hunt the late season in that kind of temperatures... I love hunting the late season, that's when the big boys come out of their holes.. Try hunting in - 28, - 30 C temps like some of us do here in Ontario, I guess that's where we separate the men from the boys... :wink: :)

Macho, nope... Crazy, yep!...:lol:

Seriously though, the cold does bother some people more so than it does others. And if a hunter needs one, by all means, I agree that such a suit would be most appreciated on the freezing bone chilling mornings.

Beleive me, there have been many early mornings when I've found myself wondering what the heck I was doing out in them temperatures, when I could have stayed in a warm bed, or wishing I had one of them suits while on stand sitting 25 - 30 ft up in a tree during the late season. Although I do have a snow camo Polar Fleece coverall which seems to do the job for morning and afternoon sittings during the late season. Not saying it's not a good idea, I agree that such a suit would be great for all late season hunters.

This is my body suit, washing it up after a successful morning hunt. We are climatized to the colder weather for if it is only 10 to 20 degrees it's just great for washing up. Anything colder then that we have to break the ice.
