    Quilts: Katabatic or El Coyote?

    Have a Katabatic Flex 15 and an El Coyote 40. Have also had EE and Hammock Gear quilts, but very happy with the two I ended up with. I'd give the slight edge to the Katabatic mostly because of the foot box closure system. Pad attachment system is different between the two, but I'd say preference...

    2022 ELK MEAT POLE

    Got married August 1st. Took the new wife on her first "real" hunt over opening weekend. Didn't have high expectations with only two days to hunt, especially knowing I needed to stay within a mile or two of the truck in an OTC unit. But after a day and a half of not seeing/hearing much, this...

    What’s your CC ?

    Currently an OG Shield, but looking really hard at a P365X or Shadow Systems CR920 right now. Possibly paired with a red dot. Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk

    Swaro EL vs Zeiss SF vs Leica Ultravid?

    Check out Optica Exotica on YouTube. He has a bunch of good review videos. But as said, it will probably come down to what your eyes like best and your personal preference. Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk

    First Swarovski questions…

    Last year I went from a set of 10x42 SLCs (newest version) to some 8.5x42 EL SVs, and have no regrets at all. I did wait to sell my SLCs until I verified I don't have an issue with the rolling ball that some do with the ELs. Both are great sets of glass and I'm sure you'll be happy with...

    How many binoculars do you own/use?

    8.5x42 and 15x56. Also have a 77mm spotter and a 50mm. Mix and match depending on the hunt. Backpack/bivy vs truck basecamp, terrain differences, species, etc. All just different tools in the toolbox.

    El coyote Quilts

    I have a 40 degree El Coyote and a Flex 15 Katabatic. The short answer is that both are very high quality and you can't really go wrong with either. I do prefer the foot box closure on the Katabatic, but slightly prefer the pad attachment system on the El Coyote. Really, it will come down to...

    Steripen. Which one?

    I have the Aqua, and once I switched to lithium batteries I haven't had the issues I had with alkalines in cold weather. I also carry aquatabs as a backup. Cheap, lightweight insurance that can save your trip. Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk

    tikka t3 superlight 6.5 creed

    About to pick one of these up as well. I don't reload so I'm limited to factory offerings. Does anybody have experience with the Federal Terminal Ascent, 130 grain out of the Tikka? Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk

    Older 'New' SLC or spend a few extra and buy the EL?

    Last year I went from a set of 10x SLCs to some 8.5x ELs (I believe both are 2015 manufacture). I have no regrets whatsoever. The SLCs are great, but the edge to edge sharpness on the ELs is amazing. I also really like the added exit pupil of the 8.5x, and don't feel like I'm giving up much with...
