I just wear a base layer shirt with silver (like under armour but bass pro brand), medium weight thermals (the good stuff for the outdoors, part fleece I think), and regular cotton shirt on top. Just the thermals and cotton pants on bottom, with knee high thick socks and rubber boots. That's good down to the upper 20's. Heavyweight's should be you down to 20 deg. (in the morning, for a couple of hours). If it's colder than that (you hunt late season), you 'bout have to wear a coat, which I can never shoot a bow out of without it hitting somewhere.

I've been hunting in upper 30 temps latley with just a underarmour type top with ASAT extreme baselayers top and bottom, and my Fleece Predator Jacket and Pants. Fleece beanie and Muck Woody Max boots and have never got cold yet. For temps down in the teens or twenties i would add a merino wool baselayer also. I am impressed with the warmth of the predator fleece and if you would like a price on merino wool, baselayers or fleece shoot me a pm as i have it or can get it for you!
