    I hadn't even seen that one. I must have been under a rock!

    Best Puffy?

    Just at least to give us a fair comparison. I don't deny the quality of some outdoor hiking brand gear and I use it interchangeably. However the quality and function of technical hunting brands has skyrocketed and it would be great to have a direct compare

    Sevr BH and Elk

    If I'm being honest I've never took one apart.... I have a ton of used ones that I should put new blades in

    Grid fleece comparison

    Thanks to @GARLICSALT I gave the final approach acuta grid fleece a try. I snagged one off rogers for 25. It's white, so it's a daily wear piece as of now but I can honestly say this thing punches above it's weight class. It has a kangaroo pocket, the fit is fantastic. Perfect stretch (somewhere...

    Grid fleece comparison

    I really liked the eddie bauer I tried, but for some reason some of their fleeces don't fit me well. I tried large, xl and large tall and for me the large and xl had too short of sleeves, and the large tall was almost the same. The material was awesome, loved the quality of the stitching but the...

    Grid fleece comparison

    I love SG and I intend to give one a try. My only issue with the helio is the location of the pocket on the chest. It sits directly behind my bino harness which is a bummer because I do actually use my chest pockets on other fleeces I have. If I can catch a sale on a helio I'll buy one. I think...

    Best Puffy?

    I really like their reviews, I just wish they'd also compare to hunting brands so we can see how they stack up. Since they don't go head to head we have to make our own inferences and sometimes spec sheets don't tell the whole story

    Grid fleece comparison

    I don't have any arcteryx products, just haven't found any on sale that I wanted to try at the time but I hear great things!

    Clothing for cold outdoor endurance activities

    My favorite lower body combo for cold weather running has been a midweight baselayer (sitka midweight, sitka heavyweight, wrangler work wear etc) under a pair of shorts. Perfect combo for me. For biking I prefer regular jogger type sweat pants and add a baselayer as needed since my legs...

    Grid fleece comparison

    I haven't played with the R2 at all, @mtwarden have you? If that under armour cold gear quarter zip is the same one that I have with the lofted fleece inside that thing is TOASTY and is more similar to the Sitka traverse coldweather hoody I love so much. I too sweat a little much for the...

    Clothing for cold outdoor endurance activities

    For cold season running and skiing I've been using a backcountry brand primaloft evolve hoodie that is really really good. Its an ugly bright reddish pink color but I got it for 65$ on sale and it's really similar to my sitka ambient. Slightly wind proof, super breathable. Great fit. Hate hate...

    Pnuma heated baselayer vest

    Buy one boys. Fricken awesome. I'd buy another if I was worried it will fail. 20 degrees hunting turkeys yesterday and the vest let me dress light and only turn it on while sitting. Get extra batteries.

    Pnuma rain gear

    I have the pnuma 3l and honestly it's really good for the money. I was in rain for a couple days straight and it saved my hunt. Quiet, seems durable. Can't recommend it enough

    Tuning my new RIP TKO

    I don't mind any easton components. I had great success with the 75 grain stainless half outs in my last build

    Tuning my new RIP TKO

    I had issues where they narrow. Bent many of them and gave them up on my old tko build. They're very long and bent really easily even in normal use. Some guys like them but I went to all steel or titanium after that experience

    The original victory rip is really dang good

    I always hated on the 60 without testing it but I haven't bent one yet or had any issues at all. I might try a 50 grain titanium from podium just for hunting but I might also just send it with the 60s. If this season goes well with them I'll likely buy a couple dozen and just run them for a...

    The original victory rip is really dang good

    Boys I might just hunt with the standard Rip insert and get some .003s and skip the .001s. I'm having great luck with these arrows and I'm pretty sure I'll use them moving forward. I still have some rip tkos, but I don't really see an advantage in most of my personal use case

    The quest for the right mid weight pants

    What's a good comparison for them? I've never bought anything from them and I really really like the pants I got. Quality feels amazing and the design is really solid.
