Title: Scored the other day
Post by: kykiller on March 01, 2012, 09:54:00 PM
but it wasn't a critter.  Found these on another website.  Ended up getting them for $40.  There not 100% pure wool but they'll work for a poor boy, columbia usually makes pretty good hunting clothes.  I assume there wool is no different.  I might have a matching jacket for $50     :pray:    .  After season deals are the best and give you something to do while you wait for the opener in September.

Just got a pair myself.  I can't wait to use them next season.  Great find! Good luck on the jacket.

I have a pair of wool pants kind of like that. Don't know what I was thinking getting a size 42 or something like that when I wear a 34. Needless to say I don't wear them much. I probably won't be "growing" into them any time soon.  :p  But they are good pants for sure!

Speaking of deals... Monday night at our "Trad. Indoor Hunter League" I heard one of the young guys who works in that archery shop, happened upon a garage sale last weekend.. An elderly gentleman had died, and his wife sold his 11 Rinehart 3D targets (which I was told were in great shape.}     :banghead:    

These included  Moose, Elk and Bison along with smaller Big game targets such as Deer and Bear and he picked up all of them.... while paying only $50.00 for all of them..He said he spent way more than that to rent a truck big enough to haul them all home  :rolleyes:    

Some guys have all the luck .. Now, I'm waiting to see if any of them show on Craig's List as I'm more than willing to double his money.    :goldtooth:

I have been using the pants and shirt just like yours for the past five years with zero problems. I have been looking for the matching jacket also. I alway layer so they work well for me.

Not a chance.  The one I have now has never once in almost 6 years of marriage complained about me going hunting & fishing or buying anything for hunting & fishing.  :bigsmyl:    She can't cook but its a small price to pay.

I guess you could do the cooking or just get use to raw meat. Hunt, fish and stay healthy.

Ive been using these pants for 4 years in the late season. They have proven to be warm, durable and quiet. I picked them up at a surplus store in town for 35 bucks..great deal

I can get the jacket for 50.00 but I'm kinda thinking I might wait for a shirt, I think that might be better for me.  I spent most of this year in a t-shirt under a hooded sweatshirt and a fleece vest.  Never did get cold.  Most jackets are a little bulky and I'm not sure I would wear it all that often.

I have the shirt-jac and love it. It lets the wind through, though, but it's pretty decent about regulating body temp as long as it isn't too warm out...

Rhineharts for $40! What a steal!

I heard that from others.  I figure I'll wear long handles under pants, and a couple of layers of cotton and fleece under shirt, and a fleece vest on top.

42.00 for the jacket.  I couldn't resist.  I might not wear it much but I'll have it if I need it.

I got a pair of Woolrich pants and also the jacket back in the fall off a certain auction site and they were great for archery season.  Nice find!
