    Why does hunting clothing always seem to go up in price every year where do you find the cheap stuff

    Have you tried hunting in a Cotton shirt and black rugby shorts, with a woolen layer and a windbreaker/raincoat if need be ?,it works.

    More deer have been killed without Camo than with.

    Most hunting/fishing clothing is designed to catch your $$$$ not game.

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Shit quality hunting brands aren't hard to come by but cheap shit quality is getting more difficult to find

    Ridgeline would have to be your best bet for cheap?

    +1 - I wear thermals, rugby shorts and a t-shirt for 90% of my hunting. I did however buy a decent 'branded' jacket though.

    "hunting" branded clothing is over hyped bullshit. Ive shot plenty of critters wearing shorts and singlet with thermals in the cooler weather.
    Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

    Does that also count for track hunters?? If so then I am covered and I best go and get one, although I am not allowed in the lower Hutt h&f so someone may have to get for me

    So glad the secret has been unlocked, I can now go and shoot more deer with the right gear now
