Was lucky enough to book and get drawn for my first northern Kansas bow hunt and looking for a little guidance on what I might need as far as gear from those that have been. The local farmer and other hunters will be calling when the rut starts which historically has been early first to second week of November. Being primary a central to south Texas hunter from box blinds, I'm concerned with potential temperatures up there. I can handle most of what our weather has to offer but tree stand hunting all day with cold fronts will be a different game for me.
Layering is key but I may not have the final layer and boots to handle the cold. I may be over thinking it but worried I'll have a pair of 1600g rubber boots, sweat on the way to the tree and then get cold. Sounds like the range in weather can go from one extreme to another.
So for those on the GS that have experience up north, what would be your choice in clothing or layers? Any other tips like boots, hand or foot warmers, gloves, etc. ?? I appreciate all the info in advance.
