    New Peax sleeping bag

    I think the difference here is that it’s blatantly obvious when those guys are sponsored by someone, and the worst that could happen is you buy a golf ball or a sports drink that you don’t like. I think what most have an issue with is when the lines are blurred and you can’t really tell is...

    Spend my money, bino or scope upgrade

    I have a Slik 664 and a Sirui head, plus an old Vortex one for my son to use, so good on the tripod front. Plan on giving my Mavens to my son, so not necessarily part of the equation.

    What are the boot dryer options?

    Keep in mind Peet and other use circulation and some heat to dry,, Grakksaw is pure circulation, so really only work if you have a warm/dry environment to pull air from (like the top of a teepee or such)

    New Packs from Kifaru 2024

    I’m not a Kifaru fanboy by any means, I have a Shapecharge that I think is the last whitetail pack I’ll ever own, but use a SO Lanner for my other needs. That said this frame looks incredible, and am super happy that Kifaru put some emphasis on innovation of their frame, not just more bags. The...

    The good news is that if you ever had a warranty issue with FF you can call and talk to someone without a translator.

    New Peax sleeping bag

    Western Mountaineering Badger for me. Enlightened equipment quilts are nice, but not for me in freezing temperatures, I toss and turn like a madman and got lots of drafts.

    Shapecharge-dumb questions incoming

    Now, you can attach a Shapecharge to a Seek frame and pack meat in between,, not sure if you could with a Kifaru frame?

    Shapecharge-dumb questions incoming

    THIS I have a Shapecharge specifically for saddle hunting for whitetails. I drag my deer out on a Jet Sled, as my pack/sticks/stand/binos/water/jacket/etc all weighs about 20-30# depending on the season, and would not have room for packing meat, even with a grab-it or Sherman pocket,, just my...

    Nothing but great things to say about AER. Go with the Xpac one with the orange interior.

    New Peax sleeping bag

    Funny enough he did the review on the Peax headlamp that people were claiming was just a rebranded $20 one from China. He found that it in fact was similar, but definitely performed better than the cheaper one. In that case you can say “yes you get more for your money”

    New Peax sleeping bag

    That’s why resources like Rokslide, and lately Mindful Hunter reviews are great. Honest feedback on gear with no incentive to push brands.

    New Peax sleeping bag

    Gritty flat out said on his podcast that he is incentivized to promote certain products, and that is how he makes a living. To be honest I don't mind that level of transparency, at least I know to take his review with a grain/pound of salt. Its not hard to see who gets a check from Peax, just...
