I haven't yet found anything better - at least for underlayers - than Icebreaker wool. Icebreaker comes in many different weights depending upon temps. This isn't your std wool...very nice against the skin and not 'scratchy' at all. It's not cheap, but it is good stuff and effective. Wool keeps you warm even when wet. Polypro is good, but sure stinks!
I usually follow up the Icebreaker with a Pendleton wool button-down shirt. On top of that, a Filson or Woolrich vest. Sometimes the vest gets shed in the heat of the hunt, sometimes not.
For wind or really cold, a windproof/water-repellent outer shell tops all this off.
