    help with Mathews Triax cam rubbing yoke

    Had my Triax paper tuned and shooting well last season after I had put on a new string and used top hats to fine tune. But yesterday I finally got out to do some shooting and could feel and hear something rubbing during my draw cycle. The bottom cam is about halfway thru drawing when it...

    Midlayer question

    Insulated snap shirt from Kuiu is a nice option that won't take up much space or weight. I wear one for casual use and like it for layering if you size it right. I don't have a peleton 240 jacket, but have the vest. I think the peleton would win in wind protection, but warmth might be a toss...

    Ranking the Quietest Soft Shell Jackets/Vests

    I've come to the sad reality there's no perfect softshell for whitetail hunting because for me, a softshell must be windproof. There are some quiet-ish options fitting that bill, but not quite perfect. Then again, if it's windy and you need the softshell, a deer probably wouldn't hear you...

    Gut Health Supplements

    I have Crohn's so gut health is always top of mind. My doc advised avoiding a "Western diet" so I focus mostly on non-processed foods for the most part, but maybe 80% of the time, let's be real. Probiotics I think are good, along with fish oil. Although supplements help and likely aren't the...

    Recommend me a belt

    Have been a suspenders guy for years but may dabble in the belt realm, Marsupial to be specific. Has been nice for everyday wear so far. Do you have a preferred suspender you'd recommend? I have an old Cabela's set that requires buttons sewed on the pants, so curious what others use without...

    Boise area visit

    Used to spend a fair amount of time downtown Boise. I am a big fan of 10 Barrel Brewing and really like the food at Bittercreek Ale House. I think it's their pork sandwich that's dynamite. Was a couple of other small bars that were kinda cool, one German bar I liked.

    Cabelas vs Sitka- Treestand clothes

    I've used the MT050 bibs for over 5 years hunting in Wisconsin through late season archery. They're great. I don't need them to be quiet because I don't actively pursue game in them on the ground nor do I move/rub my legs much when in a tree stand. I have the jacket which I got for a great...

    I Would Have Paid More

    For whitetail hunting about 15 years ago I bought a heater bodysuit and after one day of use I proclaimed I would pay full price of that thing just to use it for a day. Thing was a lifesaver when sitting all day in super cold temps.

    What’s the one tip you wish you were given

    Be patient. So many times I rushed an opportunity for a shot or moved to reposition myself when instead I should have waited. I still consciously remind myself to be patient. Sometimes it even works.

    Pro Shop Expectations

    I think most hunters don't know what they don't know, so they trust the shop is doing all they can and assume it is done correctly. The more I've broadened my understanding (while still much to learn) I've realized most shops are in the business of making money, not helping every archer be the...

    Day One Camo / cowboy suede

    Their cowboy suede is excellent, I have the parka with a windstop lining. It's very quiet and I use it as my outermost layer. As my primary archery jacket it's with me from October thru early January with varying levels of layers depending on the conditions.

    Favorite 4 arrow quiver

    Don't know anything about the Sherpa. But as a TightSpot recommender earlier, I see they now offer a 2-piece option: https://www.tightspotquiver.com/products.

    Layering under Sitka Stratus

    The issue I would have run into with the Stratus jacket for layering would be the arms would have gotten too snug. I couldn't commit to it for that reason, but that was a few years ago and unsure if the design has changed. But it's a sweet jacket and pretty quiet. Maybe a good vest to keep...

    Sitka Fanatic alternative

    Day One Camo parka in cowboy suede with windstopper lining is legit. Maybe not as warm as the Fanatic as a standalone piece, but I would rather layer anyway.
