I have the bag --bought it on sale 4 years ago--very warm you have to regulate heat by opening zipper ---only draw back is better have feet set a little tricky to shuffle feet around.
Got The body Suit 1st time to use it was this winter in -26 with windchill at 30 miles equaling -37. Was toasty warm for the whole 8 hours I sat in my stand. I'm 58 and get cold easy as my circulation is bad ,speacialy in my feet. I only had my Mucks on , and my feet were also warm, so it made for easier movement with my feet and walking through the snow easier with a lot less boot on my feet. I see a lot of hunting shows where the folks use the Suit also while hunting out of a blind. Got mine in Fall Brown in Predator,wish they had winter white as they used to have it, was the best camo for the snow in my mind.. Go to the Heater Body Suit Site and see if they are clearing out of any of last years models, I saved 50 bucks last year doing that costing me $260 with free shipping to Canada. A few practice sessions and you'll have it down pat, the zipper is quiet as it unzipps too. Good luck on either of the 2 in which you purchase. I'm so glad I bought mine. Rocky
I love my heater body suit. The reason I chose it over the warm bad is because it falls to your waist at the shot. I believe the warm bad you shoot with it on. Outside of being completely comfortable, shooting without bulky clothes is a great advantage in late season.
I have a heater body suit..........I have been in it on as cold a day as NY will throw at me, toasty. It needs inner pockets to drop a phone in but other then that it's sweet. It's a tad bulky and if a deer surprises you it might cost you but you get used to it fast. Don't know about the bag.
I don't get why anyone would need either if you are hunting temps above 0 ... Buncha pansies on here..... :P
I don't like shooting a bow dressed like the Michellan Man, too much risk for failure. I also like to drop down into my Summit and use the rail as a gun rest.......in the suit I am wearing a sweat shirt and jeans.
If its gonna be that cold I sit in my blind with my propane heater. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I love my heater body suit. I have hunted 20 degree mornings with my under armor t-shirt and pants, camo t-shirt, and camo scent blocker pants. It was more than tolerable, I was actually warm. Also, with the shoulder straps, I can drop it off my shoulders easily, making shooting comfortable.
Another vote for HBS. This was my first year using it and I love it. Hunted most of the season in UA base layers and the suit. Honestly if ever gets below 40, I can't think of a reason not to own one versus buying layers. Practice putting it on several times before you do it 25' up on a small platform.
Enjoy the HBS! This is too late to be any use to you but I have a warm bag. I like the fact I can just have my arms out without pulling more of it down...'cause you get all toasty and having any body part out of it sucks in short order. Brrr. It's also waterproof (or resistant) and windproof. On the downside, being waterproof makes it kind of crunchy. If you leave it outside in the cold car and then put it on in the morning in a quiet woods, it's a bit like climbing into a potato chip bag. Once it warms up with your body heat it quiets back down. I'll be using mine tomorrow morning. Should be a brisk 1 degree with the windchill.
