But, I can't decide, synthetic or down for a 0 degree bag? I
am worried about getting it wet, and I don't want to pay more than $200.
If you are really dead set on not spending over $200.00, then forget down.
Down will be more expensive, but in my opinion, it is well worth the good
night's rest. I also had a 0 degree TNF Polarguard 3D bag that sucked. I
used it in 5 degree weather with a tent and froze my ass off. That was in
1993, and the last synthetic bag I'll ever buy. Good luck.

REI lists a 0 degree down bag (REI Down Time 0) for exactly $200 -
$210 for the longer size. I don't have any experience with an
REI bag, but the specs look okay.
