    Anyone think point creep will slow down due to the camera ban?

    Critique my layers

    I think that is a great lineup. I second everyone else about getting a puffy. I am not an expert when it comes to puffy's but I found this video from Mindful Hunter very helpful. I ended up purchasing a Sitka Kelvin Aerolite on sale after watching. I'll keep my Nano Puff for daily use now.

    It is good hunting. I’m a resident and nearly exclusive hunt public land for whitetails in the southern half of the state. If you find yourself here this summer send me a PM.

    First Lite Challis Fleece Jacket *Review Added 6/19/24*

    Does anyone have this and the FL Origin? Both seem to be fleece midlayer with the Origin being a bit more durable and the Challis being more windproof. Can anyone provide their experience? Thanks!

    Layering System for a western hunting newbie

    Appreciate all the feedback so far. I ended up purchasing a Sitka Ambient jacket (40% right now!!) to throw in the mix. I'm thinking for upper layers I go with Wick crew, kiln 1/4 zip, Ambient Jacket, Nano Puff, and Dew Point. All 3 of those jackets are super packable.

    Possible First Elk Hunt, Looking For Advice

    I realize this is very naive but it is something I am nervous about. I drew my first archery elk tag for CO and will be joining my dad and his buddies who have a lot of experience. Any resources you know of that will compare legal vs non legal bulls just to get my eyes/mind trained? I know this...
