:) Hunters often suffer from cold feet when when their boots are too tight in the toe area, constricting circulation to the lower foot!!When blood isn't flowing through the small veins and capillaries, the toes and lower foot chill!! to avoid this, wear your own hunting socks when trying on new boots!!!! Then make sure you have plenty of wiggle room for your toes!!! with such a fit blood will flow unimpeded to the lower foot and the toes will more likely stay toasty!! ;) :cool:

Re: HUNTING TIP

Hmmmm,<br />Sounds like someone has bee reading Outdoor Life or Field & Stream. Good stuff there. I have always done that when trying on my winter boots. <br />Keep my feet warm and I am warm. If I am out and about, my feet get cold - I am done, miserable.<br /><br />Thanks for the tip though Fly Rod.<br /><br />AK Chappy

Re: HUNTING TIP

If your feet sweat a lot, take 1 or2 extra pairs of socks with you, and change them every 3-4 hours.<br /><br />DO NOT rub your feet with cyanne pepper.

Re: HUNTING TIP

.....since we're on the subject, this seems appropriate:<br /><br />DEER HUNTING SEASON<br /><br />A man and his friend were enjoying Deer Hunting Season in a rural area near a blacktop highway. A huge buck walked by and the hunter carefully drew his bow and took careful aim.<br /><br />Before he could release his arrow, his friend pointed at a funeral procession passing on the road below their stand. The hunter slowly let off the pressure on his bow, took off his hat, bowed his head and closed his eyes in prayer.<br /><br />His friend was amazed. "Wow, that is the most thoughtful and touching thing I have ever seen. You are the kindest man I have ever known."<br /><br />The hunter shrugged. "Yeah, well, we were married for 35 years."
