For whatever the reason it seems I get cold very easy when it is damp or chilly while in the woods. Even in archery season. However, like most archery hunters I don’t like the bulk of big gloves or a big hand warmer around my waist.  This can hinder shooting. This year I found a great alternative. The Hunter Safety System Muff Pack.

I usually carry a fanny pack in to the woods in archery to carry my calls, range finder, etc. The HSS muff pack has the pockets built right in to carry these items you need. It has fitted front and back ventilated pouches and 2 zipper pouches. Keeping your hunting accessories at your  fingertips.  I also liked the fit. It hung almost in a V shape off your waist.  You can tell this accessory was designed by a hunter.  The fit allowed for the muff to sit low enough not to get in the way of your bow string. The openings are almost facing upward and you can place your hands in and out of the pack with ease of movement. It was a “natural” position for your hands.  The fleece lining kept my hands warm while waiting for a shot to present itself.  The muff was also fully adjustable to fit over any type of clothing you may be wearing.  I also liked that the muff pack was not bulky. It was stream lined, again with an archery hunter in mind. Although I have used mine for archery, rifle, muzzleloader season, late season waterfowl and while out hiking and ice fishing.  The material is noise free, made of soft quiet fleece.

I feel that to any hunter, quiet, simple and easy to use, and cost effective, will  help dictate what gear he or she will use in the field. Well I have to say in my opinion the Hunter Safety System Muff-Pak, helps keep hands warm, gear at the ready without a lot of movement or bulk, and ease of use. I would recommend the item to any hunter.
