Luke Bryan went hunting in Iowa -- where it was quite cold -- and even shared a photo of himself in hunting gear and fatigues, complete with face paint.

Bryan, who picked up the Favorite Country Male award at the 2012 American Music Awards last week, posted a photo on Twitter. He looks like he is about to head into the thick of battle, albeit a battle of a different sort.

The war paint, as well as the facial hair, makes him look oh-so-serious, and we're used to seeing the happy-go-lucky singer with a big smile on his cute face. It's certainly a change of pace and a different look for Bryan.

He captioned the shot, revealing all the details we need to know about his endeavor. "19 degrees in Iowa," he wrote. "In stand with ‪@HJobes thanks to ‪@TheCrushTV."

This photo comes a few days after his fellow country superstar Miranda Lambert shared a photo of herself in camo hunting gear while on the trail of a wild hog.

Maybe one day Bryan and Lambert will get together and go on a hunting expedition together. They could invite Aaron Lewis, who is also an outdoorsman.
