Let's see your Buddies...........

[Flintknapper]

As in Propane Heaters.

I know I'm not the only one.

A little nippy this morning in the Box Stand so I fired up my 'Big Buddy' for just awhile to warm things up. Threw a 'Breakfast Burrito' on top of it and was able to warm my belly too (from the inside) in just a few minutes. Love my 'Buddy'.

Never warmed up a buritto, something I'll need to consider.

 

[BigBore44]

Man, you guys are really roughing it. I feel bad for you. Nothing worse than being out in nature in your....office chairs and space heaters. Lol

Here's my contribution.

Hell, the heater in my truck dosent even work anymore......actually the blowers out....probably should fix that before hitting the mountain next......

i didn’t know trucks in Hawaii had heaters.

I think he meant window crank

 

[Jeb Stuart]

Gee, I thought Buddy's were hand warmers.

Depends on where water starts leaking from first....

I think he meant window crank

that's the AC......


truthfully tho, I do well in cool weather but a few places I hunt (sit for sun up, or sun set) I could go for a heated box to hide in.

I thought they used portable Air Conditioners in Hawaii in their deer blinds? Should some modern day deer blinds now be called Mini-Club Houses?

 

[whughett]

Holy crap Andy. All them years in a tree stand in Maine, in bone chilling weather. I was born 20 years too early.

I used to go to a charity hunt in Demopolis, AL. It was on a plantation and there was a shooting house on it with electricity to it and it had Lazy Boys, a refrigerator, window A/C, and a TV antenna tower for watching football games. The stairway had 2 landings. I didn't see a heater but I'm sure there was one.

It was for the private use of the owners not for the charity hunters.

I catch a little grief about hunting in heated blind from time to time, just want everyone to know, I do it for the children.

Their little fingers don't have the stamina and toughness for rugged non-stop cold weather hunting....(like mine ). Thankfully "Big Buddy heaters" can warm those little fingers and makes it easier to handle snacks.

When I was young the cold didn't bother me nearly as much as it does now that I am 76. COOL weather bothers me now. :-( When I get old I guess I will have to buy some insulated coveralls to wear around the house. I've been wearing a jacket inside today.

Speaking of hand warmers, I have one somewhere that I musta bought 50 + years ago. Uses Ronsonal (spelling) lighter fluid.

Have a blessed day,

Leon

I remember those metal hand warmers (Jon-e and Zippo) and big yellow bottles of Ronsonol lighter fluid. You did not want to overfill the wick material such that it would leak out. That lighter fluid would cause a really irritating chemical burn to your skin.

I'd forgotten about those things. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

I have a few of those as well as the type that burned charcoal sticks.
I always hated the smell of them, but Iirc they had an attachment for putting out deer scent.

Wow, I've seen studio apartments in Manhattan smaller than that. lol

Neat! As Forrest Gump would say "That's all I got to say about that."

Yep, that's the one. Now I will have to dig mine out and take pictures.
