I really only wear it when its brutally cold and yes i wear it as my true baselayer so i can feel the warth better. Its not too bad to wick moisture but def not as good as merino (Nothing is) ,
Saddle is the way to go if you are constantly moving around to different properties/States. one setup and you can hunt anywhere with very minimal equipment. I have been using mine for about 5 years now and i dont even think about taking my lone wolfs out of the closet anymore. Three full length...
I love my First lite puffy. It lives in the bottom of my pack all season and keeps me plenty warm. Tradeoff is a little noise but it breaks in after use.
