Whitetail Gear List
From the inside of his shop, Wisconsin native AJ Kissel breaks down his whitetail deer hunting gear list for his typical November treestand hunts. From base layers to outer layers, and from his hunting pack to the gear goes in it, see what gets AJ through a long day of bowhunting whitetails.
Whether he’s walking in 200 yards or two miles, AJ’s layering system scales to his activity level and the outside temperature, keeping him feeling comfortable, dry, and warm. He starts the hike to his stand wearing minimal number of layers to avoid getting too hot with additional insulating layers and gear inside his pack. Once he’s at the stand, he adds on the necessary layers and gear to keep warm throughout the day.
