    What shirt do you recommend for 70+ degrees? I have the Core 4 Element Switchback Pants (which are awesome BTW) but I need a shirt for late season turkey hunts. I had a UA Heat Gear Long Sleeve and was not a fan. Looking at the First Lite Llano Crew and QZ, and Cabela's Hunt Tech 1/4 Zip. Thoughts?

    I believe your avatar is making people assume you don't really hunt...you just claim to hunt :) (see what I did there?)

    70+ degrees?
    It has been so long since I've seen 70° I wouldn't know what to wear.:lol:
    I can't wait to feel that first drop of sweat roll off my forehead.
    Come on spring you can't get here soon enough for me. :nana:

    Cabela's Hunt Tech stuff is pretty nice. I would also look at their Microtex lite clothing. Some of it is so lite it almost bothers me. I feel naked.

    One should remember there is a trade off on this type of clothing. 1. It's not as tough 2. You will sure know it if you get into any kind of stickers or thorns. :p

    I wear Scentlok Baseslayers (thinnest) when it is really hot out.

    Honestly, it's VERY rare to hit 70 during any of the seasons I hunt in PA. If anything, it might happen early season archery, and of course afternoons in late spring gobbler. Most of the times, I won't hunt in it. However, on spring gobbler hunts, I go bare min, and wear UA baselayers (the first level/original cold gear) directly under my vented 3D ASAT suit, and I'm good to go.

    I wear Enduraskin base layers by sold at BPS and they work great.

    Minnesota Vikings...they claim to be a Professional Football team but for some reason there is no proof of this... :) Just a little razzing from Packer fan.

    I wore my first lite Llano long sleeve shirt and BlackHawk rip stop pants last dove season in temps up to 94 degrees and was just as comfortable as I'd of been wearing a tank top and shorts. I love first lite gear...actually, merino wool in general. It works very well in a wide range of conditions.
