re: Sitka gear

That I actually did buy for myself. I haven't gotten anything new in a few years though so I don't know how their new stuff compares to the old stuff. All my deer camo is ASAT and they offered that, so I tried them out.

I have two merino base layer tops and a merino base layer bottom. I love all three of them. One of the tops is heavier than the other. I think one is a Llano and the other is a Chama.

I also have the pants in ASAT. I'm not sure what the equivalent model is now, but they were like $150 and I think they're great. Only issue with them is they're not windproof or waterproof. They're really quiet though. I've gotten to where I don't deer hunt much during duck season, but during bow season, I pretty much always wear that lighter base layer and those pants. I think they're great.
