I'm considering the spike tent, anyone have experience with that one? 12x12 probably for 3 guys. One has been sleeping in his Kia Sportage last year, and Chevy Truck back seat this year.
Wool socks for me, heavier ones if below 35°f or so. Down booties would be nice. And I just realized after getting back from hunting this week and inverting my marmot bag that there is a Velcro pocket in the footbox for a heat packet/hot hands. If I'd only known...
The vortex pst ffp 6-24x50 comes to mind since I just looked through it a couple days ago and was shooting it a couple years ago. Lots of small print at low power.
What's the difference between the instinct series of tent from Cabela's, they have the outfitter and the Alaskan guide ones. They seem to be the same or nearly so, in shape and size, but the Alaskan guide are half the weight? Is the fly material what makes the weight difference? The outfitter is...
I'm considering the sig Sauer bdx range finder and scope setup for the rem 700 LR 7rm, seems to be a nice setup a and a little easier to use as long as your ballistics are correct.
Water is on surface so corrogated pipe won't really help, water bars on that steep slope will work best but then you have to drive over them. To much crown and getting up during snow may cause you to slide off the side. If runoff from the concrete is the big problem then a grating drain across...
A fleece pullover with Gore windstopper lining. I have a cabelas legacy fleece with windstopper that works great for what you describe.

WOW, that totally sucks. I thought it was unusual to lose animals in the field, like 1-2% or so. Such has been my experience since starting hunting in 1972. My experience this year is really making me rethink archery hunting for me.
I would like to add that the more you have tried different shoes and boots with success and failure, you will start to know what will fit and what will not fit. After buying good fitting ones in the showroom that aren't after a while, and average ones that feel good after wearing for a time, I...
Depends on how thick of fog. Sometimes visibility limited to 100 yds sometimes 15 yds. The deer don't see any better than you in fog and the fog dampens sound a bit plus with fog usually not much wind so scent doesn't travel as much. Move 50 yds at the time and glass around a bit then another...
I agree with /\/\, used to use liners but it's a second layer on the feet and I finally switched to just good wool socks and much better. More miles and less problems. I know lots of guys say to use liners and they like them so worth a try if you haven't tried them but it may not be the best for...
