[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 2387718, member: 63925"] So looking at another archery mule deer hunt in ND or SD in 2022. Have some points. Last hunted 2017, had my chance but pulled a rookie mistake which is another story🤬. But thats bow hunting. I wore snake gaiters, heavy, hotter than dickens! Lower legs soaking wet from 95 F. Hated putting them on but DANG! First 3 days never saw or heard rattler and while walking out at dark I was thinking "what's the point?" as I got next to road. About 25 yards from road, I got the dreaded marbles in coffee can noise. I performed World Record sideways jump and it stopped. Picked up stone, tossed over to sage brush I was next to and yep got the leave me alone response! So I absolutely hate wearing them but love knowing I have them on. The ones I have on are extremely heavy denier and looking for something lighter. Forget snake boots, I can't even find regular boots to fit Sasquatch feet let alone snake boots. Size 15-16 depending on boot sizing. Anything lighter and effective? [/QUOTE]
