    It's common to find cold weather gear at your local sporting goods store or outlet, but finding Warm weather gear is a different story. Need some suggestions on warm/hot weather camo. When hunting season starts here in South Georgia North Florida temperatures are normally in the mid 80's. If I could get away with hunting in shorts and short sleeve t-shirt I would but the mosquitos will carry you off! Any suggestions or advice?

    I use a ASAT leafy set up the camo is on a fishnet setup and adds no heat to the setup I will have a long sleeve t or light base layer and shorts or long legged light base. Works good

    leaf suit and thermocell will be about a cool as you can get and still survive the bugs. for florida I always spray the leave suit with peretherum and let it dry to keep the ticks off.

    Light long sleeve shirt, I roll my pants up to my knees and walk in in a tee shirt. Put long sleeve on once I cool down

    I really like the ua loose gear for a shirt, and the thinnest and usually the cheapest paints I can get.
