Hunting rain gear

Hunting rain gear

Everytime some company comes out with waterproof clothing I am always skeptical. I have been caught out in the rain in down pours with so called water proof clothing and have gotten soaked right through. I was at Mark's Work Warehouse and I noticed that Rocky Gear had some new 100% water proof outerwear on display labeled ProHunter. I asked the salesperson if this really was waterproof and the reply I got was I could take it back for a full refund if it was not 100% waterproof. I took that as confidence in the product and thought I would try the cargo pants and hooded jacket out in the field. I believe the jacket was around $150 and the pants around $100. Not as expensive of some of the Browning and Sitka gear so I was not expecting great results but I have been pleasantly surprised. The picture on the left features me after hunting the morning in solid rain on the Pacific Northwest for Roosevelt elk and Blacktail deer, I was still dry underneath
