We’re in the last month of deer hunting season here in Minnesota, with the season ending on Dec. 31. The weather has been below 30 degrees for a while here, which means we are officially below freezing temps. It’s important to stay safe as you venture out into these conditions, which means staying as warm as possible. Our Banks Outdoors products can help with that. Learn more about how our accessories can keep you warm during these freezing December hunts.

Multi-Function Hand Warmers

Banks Outdoors offers Multi-Function Hand Warmers to keep your hands warm during freezing hunts. The device warms up to 131 degrees and comes in a pack of two, one for each hand. You can hold them as you make the trek to your blind and then continue using them for other functions when you’re inside the blind. These warmers are truly a triple-function multi-tool. They have two charging ports, a USB and a USB-C, with a 5,000 mAh internal power bank so that you can charge two of your devices with the warmer alone. It also comes with a USB to USB-C cable so you can charge all of your devices, even if the ports on your devices don’t match the charger’s ports. The warmers are also a flashlight, so you can warm your hands, charge your devices and use a flashlight all with one product. Stock on the warmers is limited, so make sure you grab your pair before the season ends.

Use an Indoor Heater

The extra power capabilities will allow you to plug in even more warming devices. You can use one of the hand warmers to power an indoor heater while you hold the other in your hands. When using a heater, make sure it’s an indoor heater. They’ll be specifically designed to be safe in enclosed spaces. Make sure your vents aren’t blocked when you’re using the heater. Our Carbon Filters will block the scent leaving the blind while leaving the ports open, so you can have fresh air circulating through the blind without compromising the temperature or your scent control.

Wall Insulation

The windows and doors of our Stump blinds seal tightly to keep out scent and sound, but you can never have too many layers of stealth. Add our Wall Insulation to your Stump blinds to level-up the sound deadening effect and scent control in your blind. The insulation can be installed with a simple adhesive attachment, so setup will be a breeze. The Wall Insulation comes pre-installed on all Pro Hunter blinds. You can even add the insulation to your homemade blind.

Our Banks Outdoors blinds and accessories will help keep you warm, even during these late season, ultra-cold, December hunts. The multi-functionality of the warmers will allow you to use them on your walk to the blind and inside the blind, giving you more bang for your buck. Grab the accessories now to keep yourself comfortable and warm as you enjoy the last few weeks of the 2025 deer hunting season. Being that comfortable will help you stay out in the blind all day, giving you more opportunities to stock your freezer with wild game for your Christmas dinner table.
