    Velvet... Keep or strip?

    Sorry Robby, I guess it's not fair to generalize! Probably depends on who is doing the work, and it should be noted that I've only seen a half dozen or so with artificial- not a very big sample size.

    DIY Tarptent weight?

    I've got a pretty nice 2 person taptent coming along, just need to design a door and make a few modifications on it. I'm curious what you all would consider "ultralight" as far as weight goes NOT including stakes? Here she is so far- I can post pics as I make changes in anyone is interested.

    Velvet... Keep or strip?

    Even if you mess up, it will still look 10x better than artificial. I've seen better looking racks come with 3D targets than real ones with that stuff.

    Rangefinder?

    My trophy room would disagree. Leupold here, but to answer the original question, same as Whisky and Justin above!

    Velvet... Keep or strip?

    I've had good success with Velvet In Tan. I've done it a couple days post kill before with nice results. Poke the tips, hang upside down, then inject starting at the bases and working down toward the tips. When you hit veins you can see them fill up and the solution travels beneath the velvet...

    How many guys spend time on lower back

    Overhead squats! Lower back keeps you from toppling over forward, abs keep you from falling backward... and you work the legs and hips all at the same time. Overhead squats have been a favorite of mine lately and they are really making a difference when it comes to other lifts as well. +1 on...

    Timberline 2 Bag vs HighCamp Bag

    I've got a Highcamp on order, and I plan on embracing the simplicity and lack of bells and whistles (specialty pockets). The only items on the outside of the pack will be my tripod and sleeping pad. I plan on organizing my stuff inside the pack with silnylon pullouts, and my spotter will rest at...

    David Long's book is available! I've had it 2 weeks, so whoever responds first with "I'll take" gets it. PM me your address too.

    The morning after...

    My dad is 52 and he started drinking a protein shake every morning and evening post-workout, and he swears it's helping his recovery. He also started taking Muscle Pharm Assault pre-workout around the same time, which has high quality creatine in it, so it's tough to say which one is actually...

    Swarovski SLC NEU 15X56 issues....

    Your eyes are probably too narrow for those binos. I can't use the SLC 15s because mine are too close together too. I read somewhere that those binos wont fit 15-20% of people because of that issue. Hopefully you can get a full refund.

    Kryptek Clothing for 2013

    Same here, my emails would not send to the address I was given. I want some Highlander fabric to make some bino cases and stuff. If you get ahold of some info and fill me in, I'll do the same for you.

    Vortex Razor HD 50 vs Nikon ED50 vs Minox MD50

    Ha! I tried it just now, no harm done... And they are close, but they don't fit each other.

    Vortex Razor HD 50 vs Nikon ED50 vs Minox MD50

    Since we've moved onto eyepieces, here is a side by side with the MC. Quite a difference as you can see.

    Vortex Razor HD 50 vs Nikon ED50 vs Minox MD50

    The eyepiece IS removable, so any alternate options to come out in the future should be perfectly compatible. Now that I think of it, the thread design on both models looked really similar... I'll (very carefully) see if I can screw the Nikon eyepiece into the Vortex... wouldn't that be something?
