I have a question for you, im normally a early season elk hunter and go in September, but they stopped over the counter in colorado where i normally go, so this your im going rifle at the end of october in colorado, do you think that the highpoint pnuma gear would be good for cold out west hunting, or would the vintis be better

Anyone have The stratus jacket in elevated 2 pattern size XL want to trade with me for mines in subalpine pattern?

Drawing your bow without an arrow knocked is a risky business.

Have you ever looked at the Kuiu proximity to compare this too?

Non turkey hunters under estimate turkeys eye sight and waryness.

Can you wear this under a bigger jacket?

Sitka has the best zippers I’ve found. Super quiet.

Great video. How is their UV signature?

Man thanks so much for the great info. As a beginner, everything is overwhelming and the cost of all the gear to get started hunting adds up!

A bunch of fancy patterns!!! Blaze Orange on wool or cotton like a sweat suite , Walmart used to sell, BUT with limbs and stick camo you will look like a bush and they will come in close. THE BIGEST KEY other hunters will see you as like the sun this is safety for you not to get shot by others. Put a little grape Kool-Aid Jell-O or drink powder on your boots and around your stand or 50 yards out in 5 different places on the compass. The reason for the sweat suite material is the shine from light is very low to deer. Safety FIRST!!!!!

Haven’t tried any Pnuma gear but the fanatic is by far the best heavy jacket for a bow hunter. It’s gonna be hard to beat.

Thank you for your effort. But it is probably best not to try and pontificate on something. You have no idea what you’re talking about. Your bow is the holder of your energy. The arrow was only the transfer medium. It has nothing to do with a 22 versus a 30-06. One has low energy the other has high energy. And as far as better penetration, they have you go up if you lean an arrow up against the high of an animal even at 800 grains it’s not going fast enough to get as much penetration. It’s only a transfer device from a finite amount of energy given to it by the bow. Read up on it before you get on RUclips and try to, convince the rest of the knowledgeable world. Thank you again.

Best T-Shirt🥰

Great Video Big Fan Just You🥰

great video🥰

This coat is insanely warm. The only problem with this coat is that the wind proofing in the pockets is like crinkling plastic. Very loud.

If the realistic camo becomes blurry than how come the digital camo doesn't?

I appreciate the video and totally agree with the layering system. Question: in cold temps, when hiking into and generating heat going to your stand site, what do you do regarding the mid layer to prevent removing your boots? Specificity: do you skip the mid layer (just a base and non insulated pants going in) and add a heavy bib with hip zippers once at stand without the mid layer, or do you have a mid layer that doesn’t require removing your boots? Thanks.

Call me crazy but when out of state (or most times) hunting by myself I keep my lineman loose and still attached for backup in conjunction with my tether as main load

Westley, what secondary short rope do you recommend? Thanks🦌

I picked up the Pnuma 3L waterproof pant and jacket after Christmas when they were 60% off. Was considering the Sitka dew point set, but even with their sale it was still close to double the price of Pnuma. Haven't put them to the test yet, but seem well made and I watched some other good reviews out there. Hopefully I don't regret not going for the gore-tex!

Great review, thanks! Would love to see your review on the bibs and comparison to Huntworth & KUIU. Cheers!

Thanks for the review - very thoughtful. I bought the Vintis, partially because of your review. I am very impressed with my first couple of sits in the low 20s. I love the jacket/pants/beanie and Gunnison Merino Wool Hoodie. Did not care for the Vintis gloves, you can't have Velcro (loud) on hunting gloves.

Keep up the comparative reviews! Good info.

Hey thanks for the tips, you had some stuff that I’ve never thought of. If you don’t mind me asking, what state/part of the country and conditions are you hunting in? (Hilly, ag, big woods, etc)

Everyone compares these types of garments for the features, their warmth and wind blocking ability, which is great, but what about the other aspects related to hunting. Cleaning blood, guts, mud etc. from them? The real parts of hunting. I have some outerwear garments that leaves, sticks and debris just seem stick to them, and you have to pick them off, some that are extremely difficult to get blood and gut stains out, which is terrible for trying to put hunting gear up for storage.

Nothing but respect for sitka and pnuma but I'll stick with my Huntworth for half the cost and just as warm and functional.

Not for average Joe.

I’d like to see some reviews on element outdoors clothing. I have looked at it alot and love their sales and prices but I’ve never compared to the expensive stuff. I think element is definitely underrated and would like to see more videos on it and hope it’s something you’d like! Thanks!!

Is the wind block in the pnuma as good as the gore ?

Great review, we both have very similar styles for layering. I too wear a light weigjt merino sweater 125g then i move upto either a 250g merino wool or depending on temp 350g merino, i have also put the fanatic hoody over top of my mid weight layer, with possibly the ambient jacket or depending on temp I also use a heated vest for an extra heat boost just to get that chill out. Key point to the vest is make sure it is snug to your body. Then the fanatic jacket over that. You are definitely not getting cold.and you have complete movement for bow hunting. I wear merino wool long underwear under the fanatic bibs and i am fine. One of the key points you.put out there and i fimd is so important, keep your neck and head warm with something like the fanatic beanie and neck gaiter. I can tell.you with this set up i have seen myself sit in temps where people will.give up and go home. Great video

I have never used pnuma, but i have used the fanatic and it is by far the best late season gear i have used, especially for bow hunting. The fanatic line was specifically designed for the bow hunter, wether you are a lefty or a righty it is designed for you, it is totally quiet and i love the hand warmer pouch, just put a couple of hand warmers in there and you are golden. Some people dont like the optifade elevated 2 camo, i am fine with it. For the trees i am in it blends in well especially if there is snow on the trees or on the ground. Good review keepnthem coming, very honest.

How does the huntsworth line compare with these two items on their cold weather gear?

🤩🤩🤩

A place to stop knot about 18 inches below the rope man to stop me as quickly as possible, not relying entirely on the end of the tether knot 5 feet away!

I been bow hunting for 40 years started out shooting 3D always wanted the most speed to help for any misjudged yardage so you wouldn’t miss the vitals . I been using same set for hunting shooting 70lbs arrow weights around 385 to 400 grains my speed is 315 to 320 with a muzzy Mx 4 100 grain broad head never had any issues with penetration blows through deer and sticks in ground about 6 inches. A lot depends on your broad heat the large cutting diameter mechanical heads don’t penetrate as good as a cut on contact head.

Great input btw I just subbed after I’ve been watching for some time my bad.

I have the fanatic bibs and the jacket to pair. I feel like the wind stopper”” is kinda interesting. What I mean is it works good I think but it’s not proof. I’m wondering in your life experience is it better to have wind stopper or wind proof!? Does the wind stopper help regulate the heat and dissipate it? I don’t understand why they wouldn’t make it wind proof like asio just did, than after that Sitka came out with a wind proof hoodie? I mean what is happening? Please help me understand. Seems like Sitka is really good to me but I’m not sure why it’s not wind proof. I get the layering process but less layers like asio seems more efficient thanks.

Thin synthetic base, polyurethane layer vest, predator fleece coat is my go to cold weather system.

Finally got to track some Deer in the snow yesterday, I got within about 50 yards of a couple does but too many branches and shrubs in the way. I’m gonna sit for a few hours in the same area and see if they come back today before I freeze lol

You cant put a price on comfort. Out of all the gear its the most important.

Kinseys is down the road from my house… couldn’t believe when he said that….anyway as always great video and keep up the amazing work!

I found this video very helpful. Late season is tough enough and the cold weather adds another element to it. I love merino base layers. One thing I did this season was changing out my base layer shirt just prior to reaching my hunting spot. I wear the bare minimum walking in but my back is sweaty from my pack. I felt this helped but wonder if a second merino layer would help. I sweat standing still and run hot so I’m not sure. I’ll have to try running a thin wicking sock followed by a heavy sock. That might help my feet stay warmer as they sweat a lot walking in. Good content learned some things for sure.

Good content! Not to be negative it’s just a lot more work in the cold to do all that dressing and packing. I hope I can get on some deer this late season. Haven’t figured them out yet.

my last sit really showed what I need to work on in terms of staying warm and the weak link was my feet 2-3 hours in my feet were so cold I couldn't even focus on the hunt lmao. definitely gonna double up my socks up and get a better insulated boot.

Whats the purpose of a mid layer? I've never understood that. Like o get the fact that base layer gonna wick the insulation layer keeps you warm outer layer keeps you warm and dry, what's the mid layer for?

For me, I find sweatpants and bibs to be the most comfortable and warm

Everything you say makes sense UNTIL you talk about shooting at distance! Ridiculous. You lose momentum much quicker with a lighter projectile…..right? So if you needed momentum at distance, you would NOT want a lighter projectile! Yes it’s easier to account for drop, to some extent. But if you’re trying to penetrate something at distance, you would always want something heavier. Hard to understand how even using data, logic is still missed here by so many people.

Thanks guys, another great video. Wishing you guys and family a blessed 2025!! Happy New Year!!

Really enjoy your videos and content. Appreciate your time putting these together.
