I usually use a mesh face mask when I bow hunt from tree stands. I put on a kisser button this year and really like it. I think the face mask will get in the way of the kisser button. Thinking about not use the face mask this year.

Do you use a face mask when tree stand bow hunting? Do you think it makes any difference?

Thanks!

I don't use one, and don't use kisser button either. Now, if you are a "pale face" or pasty skin, you should probably wear one or put some camo on your face. Me, I just get a great tan during the summer and it lasts for a while smile

I wear one most of the time. I will pull it down from time to time and on an occasional shot but when I do leave it up, it never gets in the way of my kisser. I also practice shooting with it on too.

Kisser button? What's that? confused2

I shoot trad only, but I do wear a facemask, but it's one of those that fit snug to your face. My kisser button is not covered so I can breathe. woot

Actually I use a hood with a mask. Helps with early season mosquito's too.

I wear mine for whatever hunting I'm doing...squirrels, turkey, hogs, deer...also wear gloves too. Every little bit of concealment helps!!

I use a mask or paint. I'm one of the pasty faced ones.

Just a little paint. Masks are usually too hot for me. Especially during the first two months of WT season.

Nope, but I like bowhunting for 25+ feet up in a tree stand.
