    Which gaiter

    Hoffman Boot Review/Giveaway - Tell us what you want.

    I like 8" No insulation or at least an option and 200g instead of 400 Always waterproof Aggressive traction or the bobbed sole, Ankle support, good laces, The lighter the better. And i personally like a synthetic boot for early season and leather for the cold. Also it should go without...

    small meadow vs large meadow with large/long overlook?

    Do you have a spotter? How many days do you have? For me personally, i find certain areas of the landscape that look good but if the elk arent there im to the point that i find the biggest drainage i can and glass the morning and afternoons till something pops up. As far as your frolicking...

    stone glacier R3 5900?

    I have no comparison of the exo but i can tell you that i highly enjoy my 5900. The design is great, its got a decent amount of room to stay a week, plenty or options for additional pocket storage if you want, and ive got multiple comments and how it compresses down so nicely when I'm day...

    Run and Gun Day Pack

    Also look at the kiowa its got a built in spotter pocket and is described to be designed for exactly the application you speak of. Its an internal frame pack with full belt but is still compatible with all of the SG frames if you want. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    Luxe hiking gear hexpeak tipi review

    I have one season ( a 5 night trip and a 2 night) in my luxe hexpeak shelter and im still 100% happy with the purchase. On my longer stay it rained for a solid 72hrs and there were winds 15-20mph at times and i had no issues whatsoever. Its a great shelter for someone that wants to get into the...

    Kuiu vs First lite

    It was mid 30s yesterday when i was out. Not snowing but some on the ground. I have not used any of it while snow is falling though. If your asking because of temps they definitely have the correct things to keep you warm. If you mean as far as getting wet from snow i have no experience there...

    Trekking poles?

    Ill second this. I love mine. Tons of miles on them. Creek crossing, river crossing, steep climbs they become human 4wd and they have been great! Plus if your like me and your ballence is thrown off slightly their awesome for walking logs. Not something I use while actually hunting cause i want...

    Tree stand
