    favorite tripod head.

    X...whatever we're up to. This head is not the best of the best but for the price it works well. I was digiscoping with a ball head that perturbed the hell out of me. The PH-111 made keeping on the animal much smoother. I'm sure there are better and more expensive options, but the Vanguard does...

    Kifaru Bikini top cross bar and stalking:

    I have seen articles about stalking without boots. I don't think its all that uncommon. "Stalking socks" I think they called them.

    Quick question about Nevada?

    Mark is right. Cow points for cow tag, bull points for bull tag.

    What type of shelter do you use for Colorado rifle elk season?

    10x14 Kodiak flexbow it's awesome for truck camping. I put a Mr heater Buddy in mine to heat it. Room for 2 cots and a chair for putting on boots. Did well with up to about 6" of snow on it. We also use an ez up with side curtains for the kitchen-hang out area. I doubt that would handle snow but...

    Anyone in Vegas area wanting to check out bikini and T1 bag

    Fremont Street. If you drink, buy a beer at the ABC store as its much cheaper and take a walk. Interesting people watching to say the least.

    What is your most bonehead move ?

    Bonehead move number 2... "never borrow horses to go on a pack in hunt". Borrowed 2 horses from a friend for a Colorado second season elk hunt. Had to get them shoed and inspected so they could go across state lines. Turned out the unusually large mare hated other horses. Or should I say wanted...

    What is your most bonehead move ?

    I've got a good one. Worst trip I've ever had, by far. Not sure I should tell it cause it makes us sound like idiots. :/ But here goes.... Started off I had just bought a new trailer for the wheelers. Never really used it until hunting season and found we could not keep the wheelers from sliding...

    Zeiss 85mm Diascope Cover

    I'm with ya. My only concern is the eyepiece. I had been thinking about making a small cover. I think it would need to be strapped on so it didn't get hooked by a branch and never seen again.

    Zeiss 85mm Diascope Cover

    Another company similar to Scopecoat is Optech, fyi. They appear to make a pouch for every dang thing! Plug for Doug at Cameraland as he told me about them.

    Zeiss 85mm Diascope Cover

    Something like that scopecoat may be the ticket if its easy to pull on/off.

    Zeiss 85mm Diascope Cover

    I was really close to ordering that one Aitchar, but I dont see that it allows access to the tripod ring knob. I use that knob a lot when glassing. Love to hear from folks who have experience with it. I run a BT3 and find that the rubber eyepiece cover can easily be knocked off (as it sticks out...

    Zeiss 85mm Diascope Cover

    I'm in the market for a cover for the newer model Diascope 85. Any newer covers available since this thread? Does the Zeiss neoprene cover allow you to use the tripod ring so you can twist the scope?

    Gear is great, BUT you need to get in the field!

    Regarding post #4. I disagree with judging someones experience by the city/ state they live in. Does not matter where you live as long as you are commenting on equipment you have experience using, I appreciate the input. I live in Vegas but I contradicted Aron once on a pair of pants because I...
