    Favorite Solid Color for Hunting

    Doesn't look much different than a million other shades of brown out there :P That said, I do prefer my brown a little lighter (medium)...its a little dark for my tastes.

    Favorite Solid Color for Hunting

    I'm pretty convinced when hunting ungulates a rust/brick color might be the absolute best color out there.

    American Made & Sourced

    What materials? Their big thing is that they raise their own wool. They probably might import the nylon or polyester they use with the wool as thread, or to make the wool fabrics, or the shell for their woolcloud items.

    American Made & Sourced

    Duckworth is 100% American made as far as I am aware and makes some quality products. A little pricey, but worth it if you really want to support American products.

    Bino harness recommendation

    Looking at the Marsupial and SG. Any defining qualities or priorities I should consider when choosing one over the other? Currently thinking the Marsupial since it's a bit cheaper and everyone seems to like it.

    Hey, what color/pattern did you get for the rain jacket?

    Thousands of acres of crop land getting turned into solar farms across the Midwest

    That's why it's so important for hunters to work together to protect our interests.

    Thousands of acres of crop land getting turned into solar farms across the Midwest

    Sadly, I don't see that changing. Corporations and wealthy elites have the power, not the people.

    Thousands of acres of crop land getting turned into solar farms across the Midwest

    I grew up on a farm (horse farm by that time) and my grandparents on both sides had farms. Dairy on my mother's side, beef on my father's side. I live within a mile of 5 different dairy farms. I live and have lived most of my life in a rural community. I grew up baling hay, shoveling manure...

    Thousands of acres of crop land getting turned into solar farms across the Midwest

    Sad that guy was so deceptive. Living off the land and building a family compound where we can smell each other's grills is my genuine dream.

    Thousands of acres of crop land getting turned into solar farms across the Midwest

    1. I agree much better than solar fields, which is why I said "not to the same degree". 2. Growing big bucks because of food availability is a very limited definition of *great* for "wildlife". Is it great for the literal quadrillion of insects killed by pesticides? Is it great for the fish...

    Thousands of acres of crop land getting turned into solar farms across the Midwest

    Cropland is also not great for wildlife to be honest. Yes, it does provide food, but massive crop monoculture causes a lot of environmental issues too. Again, not to the same degree, but its it's there. Everything we do as humans effects the environment. I'd love if we could re-wild most of...

    Thousands of acres of crop land getting turned into solar farms across the Midwest

    Agreed 100%. To be clear, I'm not defending solar. And it they are going to do solar why not outfit it on the roofs of buildings that are already there to minimize wildlife impact? Pretty much everything comes down to money. It's a complex issue, no easy answers but I agree it's the shame the...

    Thousands of acres of crop land getting turned into solar farms across the Midwest

    These are coal mines in Wyoming. That doesn't look like wildlife habitat to me. I don't know that I believe harvesting fossil fuels has minimal wildlife impact. But I am not looking to start a big argument. It is what it is. Every method of energy creation has side effects and consequences...

    Thousands of acres of crop land getting turned into solar farms across the Midwest

    Not to be that guy but coal mines and oil refineries aren't exactly great for hunting or wildlife either. I totally agree that it sucks, but people want cars and electricity and everything else and that requires some kind of energy to be harvested. That is never a zero impact operation. I...

    Favorite Solid Color for Hunting

    No, I don't think large chunks of black are optimal. But I also don't think it will sink your hunt if you do everything else right.

    Favorite Solid Color for Hunting

    I'm in the middle on it. There's a lot about that I'd like but I also like modern medicine, indoor plumbing, and contact lenses.

    Amazing how much you learn when you spend every day connected to the land and your life depends on it.
