Thanks for the refresher WBB - good advice. I can vouch for deer being able to see "predator eyes". Even if you are perfectly still, if a deer looks right at your face at 35 yards or less, and stares for a couple seconds, it will be able to make your your eyes, and it will be gone, snorting the whole way to warn the others. Doh. I now wear those camo headnet doomaflatchies, and clip-on tinted lenses to the scrip glasses, even when rifle hunting. Previous to that, I only wore the full camo getup in archery season.
My biggest nemesis by far when hunting is face itchies. My skin gets drier in the winter, and I'm constantly having to sloooooowly move my hand to a spot on my face/neck/forehead/ears, scratch disreetly, then sloooowly move back down - anyone have advice on how to prevent this? I'm gonna try cutting down on caffiene intake to see if that helps, but I've got to have SOME caffeine or I'll fall asleep.
