I'm about to pull the trigger but need the nudge. Anybody own this jacket and can provide their feedback?
From what I've seen it is "suppose to be" windproof but from what I've read that doesn't appear to be the case. I have a pretty solid FL system now, Llan-Chama-Halstead-Uncompaghre and a Marmot minimalist outer layer shell. Is this piece a waste? Or can I do a setup with Chama and Catalyst for a good bit and then thrown on the puffy when it gets cold? Most of my hunting is western Montana late season elk.
Last bit... windproof... what's the verdict? That's a pretty big point to me. Worst case I'll buy the Sitka Jetstream (jacket or vest) to stop some of the wind.
Thanks everyone
