It all depends on your feet for example. I have a high arch and with some of the stock insoles being flatter not giving me the support allowing my foot to flex too far and the back of my heel will rub causing irritation and or blisters, this is magnified when carrying heavy loads. Finding a...
I always have mine in the pack I carry the Browning thin shell similar to the cabelas Dry-Plus. It packs down small in their own bags and the weight is minimal.
Thanks for the help guys, It's not about cost. I was definitely looking at adding the pockets Aron mentioned and the grab-it for my bow. The other question is should I get the horizontal lash kit or the vertical or both for strapping the bow on, or anything else? Also I was looking at the...
