    Ordered Kuiu - not impressed

    Well let me clarify for you and add one more thing. There were several reasons I was not impressed: (1) fabric was different on the same style pants; (2) the order which I called in was botched in several ways the sent the wrong items and they sent the wrong sizes on items the did get correct...

    Ordered Kuiu - not impressed

    Sorry the items I did not keep were shipped back yesterday. No photos at this point. I ended up keeping two pair of pants (Tiburon and Kutana), two of the Tiburon Zip shirts in two different camo patterns and one Peloton 118 shirt. I would like to have another 118 in the green and black...

    Lets not start an argument regarding broadheads.

    I am in a bit of a situation. I personally prefer fixed heads for elk, but I have a friend who is going elk hunting with a bow this year (Not with me). I know him well. He will practice and do all the right things, but he is a mechanical diehard. And, as I think about it - knowing him-...

    Exo K3 Spyder frame vs SG X Curve Frame

    I agree with AC338 entirely small belt if you have a 34 waste. As for the EXO, I am going to use it as a whitetail pack as well. It is as light as anything I normally carry (Badlands). I also want to get away from riding an ATV or UTV so much going to stands. I can strap the bow to the...

    Exo K3 Spyder frame vs SG X Curve Frame

    Yes, I just went through this. For me, I bought both SG frames and the EXO. All are really nice, but for me it came down to which one fit me better. There are a lot of good reviews on here. I am a runner and built like a runner. 6 feet tall and 168-170 pounds. The SG were just too...

    Ordered Kuiu - not impressed

    Thanks that is a very good and helpful response. My wife thinks I am nuts, for wearing this stuff around the house. But, my thought process is that if you are not comfortable lounging around in them in the evening there is not way they are going to work in the heat. You are spot on...

    Ordered Kuiu - not impressed

    I have no idea why people are so “offended” by someone asking questions about a product In a forum setting. Do they have an ownership interest or are they just die hard fans? I know they are a very good company. Otherwise, they would not have gotten this far. I owned a decent size...

    Ordered Kuiu - not impressed

    As noted above, do they get softer after a wash or two? I would keep the one they sent, but dang it I really don’t like short sleeves. I know if is hotter, but I like to keep the sun off my arms. Does the wool hold up after washing?

    Ordered Kuiu - not impressed

    For the record, I am not attempting to trash the company. I opened the second box of my shipment. I will offer the good first. I do really like the Peleton 118 shirt. I wore it in the house a fair amount this evening and will be keeping it. I may even order another. I also liked the...

    Ordered Kuiu - not impressed

    The length of the pants really was not a problem for me. I don’t mind getting them hemmed, and in some ways that is a good thing. The waste was a “little“ smaller than I expected, but that could have worked too. My biggest gripe has nothing to do with the fit. I was shocked at how...

    Ordered Kuiu - not impressed

    I ordered several pieces including Tiburon and Kutana pants. The thing I like most is the side zippers and vents. Beyond that, I find few redeeming qualities. First, I ordered Kutana pants in solid and different camo patterns. The material in each pant is different. Not even close...

    Lets talk elk and broadheads.

    Well I just realized that I lied in my original post (not intentionally of course). I have never tried the Iron Will heads. I just could not talk myself into spending the $ ! Now I would like to shoot one to see how accurate it is (honestly have my doubts but know people rave about them).

    Another SG Xcurve vs Krux EVO thread

    Bumping this up because the EXO has arrived. Wow. It is one comfortable pack. I have not put much weight in it yet, but for now it seems to fit my body much better than either of the SG. So you will know if an 6 feet tall and about 168 pound, more of a thin runners body. Therefore, the...

    Water Hole Advise

    5. I guess it really depends on the areas, but I find elk are not cautious at all coming to water. Many times they are running in. Seriously, running. I've seen them come down a ridge so fast to the water it was liked someone spooked them on the other side. This is exactly what happened to me...

    Water Hole Advise

    I have very little experience setting at water holes for elk. I think I have done it twice in 25-30 years. However, I expect to be at water holes or tanks this year because I am hunting earlier than normal. For those of you that have a experience and success, how about throwing me some...

    Lets talk elk and broadheads.

    I don’t claim to be anyone other than someone who loves to hunt, has been very fortunate bowhunting for elk and has shot a lot of elk with a compound bow. Each has come through hard work and luck, and each has taught me something about broadheads. I write this for the younger folks who are...

    Kuiu warm weather clothing questions

    Up front, I will tell you I am a BIG fan of Sitka clothing for September elk hunting. However, I have never been one to refrain from attempting to improve all things in all ways. So I ordered the following from Kuiu: Peloton shirt, Ultra Tiburon shirt, Merino 125 crew t-shirt, Tiburon...
