Thiessens has released a line of gear and clothing angled toward deer hunters. Headlining this new product family is the Thiessens V1 Whitetail lineup, which features Realtree Edge camouflage printed across a wide variety of fabrics designed to keep water out and heat in (or out, depending on precisely which seasonal offering it belongs to).

(Pictured left to right) Lightweight Neck Gaiter; Lightweight Short-Sleeve Shirt; Lightweight Pants; Lightweight Button-Up Shirt.

Lightweight Series Garments
Clothing in the Lightweight Series ranges from long- and short-sleeve shirts, to pants, button-ups, gloves and more. All items feature moisture-wicking, anti-odor material and articulated construction for unimpeded movement. MSRP: $11.99-$59.99.

(Pictured left to right) Midweight Facemask; Midweight Jacket; Midweight Pants; Midweight Vest

Midweight Series Garments
Moving more into outerwear territory, the Midweight Series similarly boasts pants and gloves, but also includes jackets, vests and other such chill-reducing offerings to the mix. Moisture control becomes more substantial, with a water-resistant treatment applied to the outer shell of Midweight Series clothing, as well as Wind Defense windproofing. Linings are fleece, though with the same moisture-wicking and odor-blocking technology found in the Lightweight series. MSRP: $14.99-$79.99.

(Pictured left to right) Heavyweight Glomitts; Heavyweight 3-N-1 Parka; Heavyweight Bibs; Heavyweight Pants.

Heavyweight Series Garments
With the Heavyweight Series, Thiessens steps squarely into cold-weather gear, with parkas (including the 3-N-1 Parka), insulated bibs and insulated pants, among other things. In addition to the basic features of the Mid- and Lightweight Series, Heavyweight clothing features Thinsulate, T-Dry and Wind Defense technologies, an ample amount of pockets (on applicable items) and slick extremity linings for easy removal of clothing. MSRP: $39.99-$199.99.

(Pictured left to right) Packable Rainwear Jacket; Rainwear Pants.

Rainwear Series Garments
Items in Thiessen's dedicated wet-weather series are built around one thing and one thing only—keeping out water. Shells are 100 percent waterproof and windproof, with T-Dry waterproofing that still manages to retain breathability. Hooded items boast adjustable hoods, hems are shock-cord adjustable and construction puts an emphasis on maintaining silent movement. A stuff sack is included with all Rainwear gear to keep the wet away from dry materials in your pack. MSRP: $89.99-$109.99.

Member's Hunt: The Dogger’s Window

A dogger’s goal while pushing deer is to drive the prey into a pocket formed by others in his gang, those hunters who are posted about a hundred yards apart along strategic locations up to a half-mile away from the dogger’s starting point. When everyone is in position, the dogger weaves his way through the woods into the wind and pocket formed by the other hunters. The approaching sound of the dogger snapping twigs and crunching leaves alerts unsuspecting deer.
