    Least you would hunt with

    I pretty regularly hunt in beat up old carhartts, xtratuffs with holes in them, a sweatshirt with holes in the elbows, and a 30-30 that belonged to my grandfather. I never killed or deer or elk that was too interested in how fancy my clothes are

    I like our Bob, as well as a backpack carrier. Throw a kid on your back and you're always training for elk pack outs.
