This last Saturday 09.12.09 I caught Field and Stream Icons on TV and guess who was on? Mr. David E. Petzal himself! I found it fascinating to listen to how he chose’s his words carefully and pronounces them. He reminds me of a Historical Librarian but seriously the show was for one hour and I could of listened several more. Bottom line, I give special and heart filled thanks to Sir David E. Petzal for 37 years of Sportsmen Service!

One said in another post to use socks as wrist bands to stay warm. Take a nice pair of long wool socks and cut out finger holes. use the socks like fingerless gloves and pull the sock up your arm under your jacket and then put your gloves on. This will keep your wrist, palms, and part of your arm from getting cold. (If you are bow hunting this is also extra protection from the string). If you have thermals and that is not keeping your arm, find polypropylene underwear, (light, medium or heavy depending on how cold your area is.)
