I have the HBS in the snow apparition. I've really haven't used it much, the last time being a number of years back inside my pop up. It did a so so job of keeping me warm. It's a pain in the ass to lug around.

I have the Warm Bag bought at Deer and Turkey Expo. Have used it several times. It is great when my son is with me as it keeps him on stand longer. When I have used it I was impressed with it as well.little bit noisy but not horrible.

Warm bag/HBS gotta be worth its weight once you have already thrown down equal dollars in cold weather outter gear?

I've used my HBS in some nasty weather. I love it. Several years ago I climbed in before daylight at -6. I killed a deer 11 hours later. The temperature had risen to a balmy 17. No way I could have stayed without the HBS. It is a pain however.

No dice. 2 does. 4 bucks. Warm except for my hands. Good god man. Took two hands to turn the damn ignition to fire my truck up.
I don't know wtf this buck is. Everything went smooth as could be

3 doe and a spike. Still having fun.
I'll second the fun part! I can't think of another reason why I'd sit outside for a couple hours in this weather other then trying to kill a deer! Life is good

Everyone stay safe! This afternoon should be a good one for those prepared to deal with the elements. Have a plan for gutting. Once those hands get wet in these temps...
Generally I’ll drag it to the truck to do the job. When it’s this cold, I don’t go real far from the truck anyways.

Good Stuff Everyone! I bet there is blood shed this evening! So who's it gonna be?????? My money is on Tracey and Brian.
I use that heater I had on the Muzzy hunt. Fire it up to keep hands warm while gutting/ skinning. Get her done people!
