The answer for that, for me personally, is Forloh. American made and American sourced with prices very comparable to Sitka. I’ve replaced all my Sitka clothes with Forloh except for a synthetic puffy (forloh has down puffys). Forloh’s pants and softshelll are way better than any Sitka I’ve had...
They’re able to give such good discounts because of a ridiculously high profit margin from outsourcing to Asian countries with terrible working conditions. I’m not convinced that a 40% discount to a few vets, guides, game wardens, etc makes up for all the paychecks they’d provide if their...
He tested the hierarchy to the limit, and I’m putting that nicely. It was like that until about the time he turned 5 and then we were really on a good groove. Less than a year later he died in my arms on the bed from a heart attack/stroke.
I had a Rottweiler that retrieved every duck I ever shot around him. He didn’t bring them directly to me but he got them out of the water and that was just fine with me. I can’t say I really taught him that, he just had a huge prey drive that I always encouraged. I did teach him hand signals...
I bought a set of Tannus Armour tire inserts and that helped significantly with flats. But the tires are still only about as thick as my blue jeans. Junk.
Yeah I think you’ll be doing more assisting than you planned on. But if they’ll let you use it then bring it back, give it a shot.
I use mine for whitetail hunting around Oklahoma. It’s saved me a lot of steps but I’ve spent a good amount of time cussing it too. The chain jumps of with way less...
I’m with you there. It’s a tough spot.
But my answer is buy the least amount from China that’s necessary. If there’s a US option, buy that.
If you’re an American company that’s taking advantage piss poor working conditions in a communist country for huge profit margins, you’re a dirtbag...
Yeah I don’t understand it either. No way I’d pay American made prices for an Asian made product.
I feel the same way about Sitka and Forloh.
Similar retail price, one is made in multiple Asian countries (a lot in China) and the other is sourced and made in the US. Then I find out that Sitka...
Very good chance that it was their first time to ever pull a bow back. It’s an awkward and unfamiliar movement. Or maybe they saw some dork on tv struggle to get his bow back and thought that’s how it’s supposed to look.
I have a good friend that’s an IFBB pro bodybuilder. I watched him...
Ha! No way I’ll be looking at golfers as any sort of gauge or reference of physical fitness, strength, durability etc.
I saw some golfers yesterday that were too weak to even carry their club bag. It’s was motorized and scootin along in front of them.
I shoot 82lbs at 29” draw and 655g arrow. I shot one arrow through a crono and it read 242fps. I expected it to be a little faster but I don’t really care that it’s not. Shooting a heavier arrow flatter was the reason I went up in draw weight also, but I shoot instinctive so I can’t speak on...
