I understand this has been said a bunch already, but I think it’s good to keep repeating. A big THANK YOU to Robby and all the mods here!
Thanks for pushing me to get my bow out in April. Thanks for pushing me to practice so my MER can grow. Thanks for helping me get a realistic understanding...
Hey all. Shot the CBC two years ago for my first year of bowhunting. Didn't bow hunt last year or participate in the CBC so this is technically my second go.
MER is 45 yards. My first year was 30 so this is a big step back for me. I know you guys are shooting 60 plus and I hope to get there...
This is the 1.0 version in Fusion camo. Used sparingly for a couple seasons and then mostly kept in the closet. Size large but fits closer to XL IMO. There are three very small (quarter size or smaller) rips repaired with tenacious tape shown in the pics. All three of them are close to the...
Curios of the fit on these. I had a pair of the original (not lite) and was in between sizes. I’m a 35-36 waist in most pants with room to tuck layers in but I had the adjustable waist all the way out on the Large and it was still tight. XL was way too big with the waist all the way in.
Having...
Hey Rick. Just like you, I look forward to the bday discount as an opportunity to get a bigger ticket piece from KUIU that isn’t often on sale. The bday discount was only good for one item and it isn’t the only time I buy gear from them, but I was looking forward to it this year so I appreciate...
It will get real heavy, real quick, for both of you if you double up items. Maybe it doesn’t matter if you aren’t hiking very far, but I usually split items with a buddy. He carries a water filter, I carry a stove, we split the tent (poles separate from body/fly), etc.
Consider water tabs as a...
Thank you! Backed out after $15+ shipping, and then ordered with the free shipping code. $5.36 for the Tumble 3. Awesome deal.

I watched a few hours of the meeting today via zoom. It was refreshing to see both the CA F&W commission and the department of F&W staff committed to defending the bear season with such good data.
They were not swayed with the emotional appeal from HSUS. As someone else already mentioned, it...
I agree with your original post. It wasn’t about whether or not you’d need to use the vortex warranty because of product failure in the field. They replaced items that were destroyed in a fire. How many other companies are willing to do that?
That’s what I thought your point was about. My...
Had a pair of Vortex binos on a tripod on the top of my truck, stepped away for a few seconds, and the wind blew them over down to the ground. Completely my fault. Came back to me working perfectly in less than 2 weeks.
They’ve sent me discontinued parts I’ve needed, hats and T-shirt’s...
Look no further than the Pay it Forward / Free Gear thread to see the generosity that exists on this forum. Over 1k responses and still going.
Hope we can keep that going, as well as how good the classifieds have been in my experience.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I can only afford one spotter for now and I’m leaning toward the 80/85 and cutting weight somewhere else in my pack.
I’m sure I can find 1+ lbs to cut somewhere, even if it’s the water in my hydration bladder as suggested.

Your mileage may vary, but my experience with the Kenai pants is they are excellent for insulation when you are moving, but they are not “down pant” warm when stationary.
I’ve worn them while hiking in the snow, sitting to glass, and for when I know the mornings are going to be cold (20’s) and...
Before I started packing a spotter, I found a group of 4 deer feeding up a rocky face just under 2 miles away with 15x binos. When the sun hit their heads I could see they were bucks, but could not tell if they were forkies or 4x4’s.
My hunting partner put his 80mm spotter on them and it was...
