If you love hunting but can’t stand the cold temperatures that often come along with it, then you probably wish there was a way to stay warm when you’re out trying to bag big game. It’s just about impossible to avoid the cold altogether, but there are some things you can do to keep yourself warm while you’re trying to enjoy your next hunt. Check out a few tips for staying warm below.
Keep your head covered at all times.
When hunting in cold weather, it’s very important for you to wear a warm winter hat. Nevertheless, why stop there? If you find that your head is always cold when you’re hunting, it might be a good idea to wear two hats when you hunt for extra protection. You should consider combining hats made of different materials, like wool and fleece, to maximize the warmth your hats will provide you.
Bring plenty of heat packs along with you.
You can purchase heat packs that are designed to deliver a steady stream of heat to your hands, feet, and other body parts. Before you go hunting, you should throw a bunch of these heat packs into your bag and bring them along with you. They will warm you up at a moment’s notice, and you might even want to consider bringing a few larger ones that can be used to cover your body’s core. That will definitely heat you up when it gets bitter cold.
Drink warm water throughout the day.
Drinking warm water when you hunt will serve two purposes. First, it will prevent you from getting dehydrated when you are hunting. Second, it will warm your body up on the inside and allow you to feel warmer overall. There are plenty of thermoses on the market today that will allow you to keep water warm throughout an entire day. Consider using one when you hunt.
