Generally speaking, the Texas whitetail deer hunting season spans from October until late February. During this period our temperatures are October 78° / 51° - February 65° / 34° on average. Something to keep in mind as well is that typically hunters are sitting in these temperatures first thing in the morning or late in the afternoon until dark. It is important to be prepared for the coldest temperatures of the day, first thing in the morning. Equally, it is important to have the ability to shed a layer or apply one as needed. Below is a list of items that are curated specifically for the Texas Whitetail deer hunter.

Pnumagrid™ fleece lining keeps your core warm, and protective overlays on shoulders and elbows prevent pack slippage, wear, and abrasion.

Buttery soft and amazingly comfortable, our 100% New Zealand Merino Wool base layer has high strength-to-weight ratios, and elasticity, plus odor-control and wicking properties that are nothing short of amazing. We enhanced Merino base layer  even more by adding Pnuma SilverStrike™ anti-microbial to keeps you and your base layer smelling fresher, longer.
