Exo K3 4800 Pack System Review ***Updated 2/10/20***

Having just got my 4800 and was previously rocking the 1800. I was previously looking at just getting the 3200, but decided against it after seeng a 4800 in person. \skip the 1800/3200 bags and just get the 4800. It has the best layout of all their packs, the horse shoe zippering is where...

Ordered Kuiu - not impressed

I think one of the issues here is how mens pants are sized. Go grab a tailor tape and measure your waist then compare that to your pant size. The vast majority of clothing manufactures in north america with mens pants oddly list the pant size different then the true measurement. From what i...

What happens if your arrow is over-spined?

Yeah I am thinking of doing that, but I am leaning more towards picking up 300 spined arrows and replacing these I have 12 additional shafts I picked up I may send back/exhange for 300s. My bow is fairly well tuned with 300 spined arrows and I do not want to get into tuning with cables/yoke/etc...

Are straight fletched arrows still a thing? Asking because I just received some from a shop.

Using both the firenock jig and vanes and nocks. sadly it was an expensive investment and probably overkill to be honest, I don't regret it at all, just not for everyone. My main reasoning was with thebitzenberger I purchased in March of this year, I could not get the fletching results I wanted...

Are straight fletched arrows still a thing? Asking because I just received some from a shop.

All my arrows are straight fletched, granted I am using firenock aerovane 3. IMO probably the most stable arrow flight i have ever had out of an arrow is due to those vanes. They rotate fast and I am super impressed with how stable the arrow flight is, even with broadheads on. I've had good...

What happens if your arrow is over-spined?

Which Lighted Nock System

Firenock is hands down the best on the market, easily repairable/parts switch out, just a high up front cost. Nockturnals for me have been horrible, nocks breaking off left right and centre. I tried another brand, I think it was luminock awhile back, but I didn't;t like pulling out the...

RUMPL down puffy blankets?

used them in my truck camper, quality blanket, might not be the best use for hunting though. Although I have never tried one in a tent, I always rocked either a cot and used a quilt or went with a light weight sleeping bag.
