I feel the same way about the 118. The material is fairly thin, but it seems to hold a lot of heat and not dry very fast.
I have a King's 1/4 zip that sounds a lot like the 97 and it gets a lot of use. The 240 Peloton is great for colder/windy days, but a light grid fleece like the 97 is...
I wish there was a way for people who think it's ok or excusable to mess with other people's stuff, to have their stuff messed with all the time. And for people who leave other's stuff alone to never have their stuff messed with.
Impossible, but it sure would be nice.
Anyone have more input on the Wyoming vs Nevada? I'm leaning toward the Wyoming, but the Nevada seems to get more positive reviews. It'll be used as an all-season boot in WA and early season in MT.
Lots of good options out there - Carter, TRU Ball, Scott, Stan
Agree with Binz17 - get one you can clip onto your D-loop for hunting. If you're a tree stand guy, clip it on once you get into the tree. If you're a ground hunter, clip it on in those closing seconds/minutes. Letting it hang...
First Lite is going to win the popularity contest, but the XKG line is quite good and you get a lot of bang for your buck. AVOID King's Hunter line - it's not very good. I'd bet that the XKG stuff can compete with First Lite's quality, and crush them in value. But do your research - each...
The non-mag version is great. The lid function is excellent so if you like the rest of the harness (minus the squeak) I think you'll like the non-mag.
Squeaks will drive a guy mad. My FHF just started squeaking on the side buckle where my range finder is mounted. Grrrr....
I have a set of Kuiu Chugach that I used last year as packable rain gear. So far, it's been good. When it's raining, but expected to clear up and be hot, I wear the bottoms with just boxers so I can vent using the side zips once it stops raining. On top I wear a light tee shirt, with the...
Yeah, Zach did a great job! Lots of time and effort put into that review.
GL with the SO pack. Lots of positive reviews on them. With so many great options to choose from, I think we're all chasing an elusive unicorn. Even if we find it, we'll still be eyeing something else wondering if...
I have a 31" waist and ordered the small belt, but after trying it on, I'm exchanging it for a medium. The pull straps that tighten the belt are pretty short so when you loosen the belt, you only have about 1-2 inches of webbing to grab onto. Reading the comments on EXO's site, the belt sizing...
Zach addresses this issue in his backpack shootout test. Many of the top packs have this problem which is concerning because I just bought an EXO K3.
He addresses the EXO specifically around minute 19:30.
Appreciate the reply.
Just to be clear, I'm not looking for OnX to spit out a bearing. I'm looking for OnX to point me in the right direction (usually back to my truck). I use the 'blue arc' direction indicator on OnX to show my heading. What clued me in to the fact that something was...
