So, I'm going to be able starting September 1st through maybe mid-October before I roll out for Uncle Sam to the sandbox.

It's so bloody hot early season, but I don't have the luxury of waiting until prime time when the weather is nice to hunt this year. So...I'm looking for ways to survive the heat.

One layer I know...however, I'm thinking of this.

A t-shirt is pretty much what I wear in the summer. September it'll still feel like summer, so I'm thinking I'll wear a t-shirt...with these...

They're compression sleeves for you arms. Made for working out. They help with blood circulation and are breathable spandex-like material. I have some compression socks for my legs that help with my shin splints, and a lot of old guys (probably some of yall ) wear them to help with blood circulation.

These things come in digital camo. I'd prefer a Realtree or Mossy Oak pattern but apparently they haven't paid for rights to those hunting patterns. So digital will have to suffice for now. Digital or not, they will camo my white arms and allow me to wear a t-shirt while I'm hunting early season.

What do you think? Completely stupid? Or so stupid it might just work?

I think it'll work.... Or just get a loose fit long sleeve tee...

I wear my scentlock and a thin T-shirt. I also respray with scent removing spray several times. I even carry a small bottle with me.

Coverage is coverage. The idea is basically to cover and blend in to surroundings. Another option might be a mesh 3-d leafy suit top...

I have been wearing the Dry Lock stuff from companies like under armor to coach peewee football. It is a lot cooler that any cotton t-shirt. They also do not get wet from sweat like cotton.

In early bow season I wear a short sleeve camo the shirt. By that time my arms are more than tan enough not to stick out in the woods. I can't imagine wearing anything compression in the heat. Unless your sweating a lot all they're gonna do is hold in body heat.
