    charvy - have you ever layered the Woodbury over the Uncompagre? Can you speak at all to the relative warmth of this combo? And is the puffy's noise muffled a bit by the Woodbury?

    What'a a good harness

    I have the same harness and like it a lot. I also run a rope lifeline rather than the tree strap. Very light, solid cobra buckles.

    Treestand safety, or not

    Hope your friend makes a speedy recovery. With harnesses made these days being light, comfortable, and relatively inexpensive, I can't understand why anyone wouldn't use one. It's 100% worth the money and time putting it on to know that you're not taking your life in your hands every time you go...

    Fleece - Does it have a place in your layering system?

    I wanted to start a thread to talk about the use of fleeces in layering systems. I started thinking more about this after looking for a quiet insulation layer for bowhunting and reading a couple blog posts (including this one: Fleece Sweaters: Must-Have Clothing for Hiking and Backpacking |...

    WTB Trekking Poles

    I have the Cascade Mountain Tech (Costco) poles, they are light and can take a pretty good beating. Absolutely worth the $30-45.

    Massdrop x Klymit Ultralight Static V Insulated

    Sign Up or Login - Massdrop A 4.4 R value sleeping pad, coming in at 16.9oz for only $60. Almost half the cost of the ThermaRest options, though slightly heavier than the NeoAir (7oz) and NeoTherm (2oz). Can't speak to durability yet, but seems like a steal.

    Washington Elk

    I just got back from a cycling trip that included a few days on the western side of Gifford Pinchot between Randle and Carson. Didn't get into the woods, but saw a few cows and heard from locals that the Packwood area was holding a ton of elk. Not sure what the units or public/private land is...

    short draw arrow for elk

    You can get a brass insert instead of the standard aluminum, which should also bump up total weight and FOC.

    short draw arrow for elk

    Are you convinced about using the XT Hunter? I shoot an Easton Axis 400 (9 gpi) at 26" which gives me around 405gr including a 100gr broadhead.

    Bows Optimized for Short Draw Length

    Hi all - I've gotten a lot of great information reading the forums over the past few months. I finally have a question: While I've been blessed in many ways, my draw length is unfortunately not one of them. I started shooting archery about a year ago and I'm using a Mission Ballistic set at 70#...

    Big Whitetails, Rokslide Style by Les Welch

    Enjoyed the article. With mobility being one of your keys to success - do you use a climber for most of the season, or do you set stands in the middle of the season on areas where you've seen fresh sign, or do you hunt from the ground?
