    Anyone deal with knee issues?

    For me it's all about going down hill, the arthritis really creates problems. I'm fine going up. Trekking poles and slow, deliberate steps are mandatory. No more scrambling down the mountain.

    New BT1!

    Sweet. My black/foliage bikini/DT2 is on the brown truck "out for delivery". Yours is the first I've seen with those colors, it looks awesome! Glad I went with it.

    Tic toc

    I got my email today also. Problem is, I just left home for a 9 day trip. I weep at the thought of that box sitting in the corner of my office, unopened for a week. Oh well, something to look forward to when I return. I ordered Dec 28, I'm sure this wait will prove to be worth it for my first...

    Delorme inReach

    I use it paired to my iPhone. It's a great piece of gear, very reliable. I've always been able to get a good sat signal. Highly recommend.

    revalation x 20* long wide

    Totally awesome review! I'm getting ready to make my own down quilt and have done a lot of research on the process. You've probably just provided the best single source quilt review that I've seen yet. Great job explaining the strap system and how to use it, that was the one area that I was...

    Crossfitters

    I've been doing crossfit for 5 years now and am 50 years old. I haven't sustained any real injuries but have tweaked myself a couple of different times, none causing any time off. I will advise that a serious warmup with a focus on mobility and stretching is absolutely required at my age...

    Review of Extreme Elk Magazine

    I like it, probably my favorite mag right now. However, I do agree that an increased emphasis on gear reviews and maybe just a little less on reader submitted stories would improve the product. Lets face it, 95% of us are gear junkies, heck, I spend an inordinate amount of time on the...

    Custom Strings??

    Vapor trail strings on my vector turbo are in poor shape after 4-500 shots. The serving where the string comes off the cam is completely separated. I also had to replace the center serving. However, regarding the center serving, I was doing a lot of tweaking/tuning and messing with nock point...

    Tommy Hogg in the back country

    I have a tommy 4 pin on my vector turbo. I like it. It allows you to practice at long range which will obviously help. Fixed pins 20-50 and the bottom pin is the adjustable. I'm considering going to a 3 pin (20-40) because if it's outside 40, odds are you have an opportunity to range and dial...

    NRA Lifetime Memberships

    Thanks for posting this info, I jumped all over it, I was about ready to pull the trigger at the "normal" rate. I plead to all of us that have the funds available for this support of the NRA to contribute and become a Life Member. Our country is under seige, it's time to draw the line.

    Nest Vs. Bivy

    I have a 2 man nest from bearpaw that weighs in at 18 ounces. I use this inside my SL5 and am happy with it. It's great for my son and I or my wife and I. It's too much weight for a solo nest so I just recently picked up another nest for just myself. It's a bearpaw minimalist that I picked...

    Packable bone saw?

    No, mine had the same tip that you're talking about. I didn't want it on there so I took it to my bench grinder and cleaned it off.

    Shooting bow while wearing the bikini frame?

    Hopefully you are right because I'm wondering if the standard timberline might be better for me than the bikini duplex. I know there is a lot of excitement about the bikini (heck, I'm excited!) and folks seem to be offloading their standard timberlines. I was about to pull the trigger on a T2...

    Thanks for the reply Aron. Are you saying that the bikini is better than the standard timberline or the duplex?
