    Windbreakers?

    Agreed, I’ve been trying to play the EBay sniper game with the pieces I’m really missing/wanting to add. I did find the current rendition of your Free Soldier windbreaker on Amazon for $20 something still complete with mesh pit vents.

    Warm, quiet camo for a tight budget newbie?

    Don’t forget surplus stores. I spent a few weeks in Minnesota one winter and a $5 pair of surplus wool pants quickly became my best friend. Riding around on a quad I quickly learned the zipper was the least wind proof part of any of the pants I brought with me which really stifled my ability to...

    My Mora

    I bought a 3 pack that put us each in for like $7.12 I think. My season wasn’t what I had planned but I did get a chance to get it into 3 animals. Out of the box it was silly sharp but did have a little dull spot in the middle but I’m happy with it. I don’t love the sheath it came with gotta...

    B&C line for Sitka vs Columbia......agreement?

    There’s a guy in Oregon that wrote a book with something like 6 blacktail subspecies in it. That said in the area we hunt I see everything from our average blacktail to the long thorough bread lookin ones, then there’s the little puppy dog sized things I see a lot in A-zone. I lived in Cazadero...

    Zap do you have pics of this set up? I just discovered the ILBE lid while searching for a pouch to use for my new spotter. Would you mind taking rough measurements of the lid for me?

    Athlon Ares 65mm Full Review

    Well I’m pretty impressed, I haven’t had a chance to take it anywhere yet but I did take a pretty good look through my neighbors backyard (2.31 miles away according to onX) I’m pretty sure if there were any deer shaped objects to find I’d have found them. Hopefully I’ll be able to get out and...

    A-Zone Poison Oak

    I used to worry about this quite a bit but even if you do everything you can to avoid it, after the shot that animals going to go where ever it does and so will you, and they probably have oils on them also, cause I’ve heard they eat it. I just tried to up my cleaning game, ivy wipes, technu. I...

    Help me decide how much spotter.

    The boss was happy enough with the price that I got the ok on the Hookupz 2.0 also so I plan to put up some pics relatively quick after I get it. Unfortunately I’m super in town now so less scenery options but, I think the foothills should give me something to look at...
