The “Famous” Western Hunter Sleeping System

Recommended Posts

Watched the video on this last night and it looks pretty cool. I have never had a decent sleeping bag and I always wind up getting cold (even in 30-40 degree weather). Does anyone have one that could convince me the $400 price tag is worth it?

Wiggys make some nice bags, I bought my son one a few years ago. We sleep on opposite sides of the tent so I called them up ( Grand Junction ) and had them put the zipper on the left side of the bag.

I believe they have a plastic zipper. If you are going to pay this much I would pay a little more and get a Butler Sleeping Bag. You will not regret it.

Another option is to build your own, put together your favorite bag and padding set up and then order a cowboy bedroll from Davis tent and awning. Best setup I have used.

Sportsman warehouse and buy an "Elkhunter" about $125.00 rated for -30..huge bag with lots of room and very very warm. Only bag I will ever use again. For $400 I could buy 3 Elkunters and sleep in Antarctica.

Friends I know told me about it. we have slept right on a cot outside next to our trucks in cold weather and were warm as toast

+1 on the Elkhunter. Used it in a tent on November elk hunt with only a Big Buddy heater to kind of warm up the tent to get dressed in the morning. Temps were 20 at night and I never got cold sleeping.

2+ on the elk hunter. I slept on a cot with snow, the bag literally froze to the cot, but was toasty inside....
