Thanks guys. I was also considering getting the cargo net for stand hauling. I plan on stopping at the Kifaru store this summer when we take a vacation to CO. My hope is that this will give me a good idea of what I really want and what will fit me best.
Hey Rokslide
I'm trying to decide if and what optics I should add or upgrade. I currently have a pair of 8x42 Nikon Monarch and a low end spotter in the 15-45 range.
I currently live in the Midwest and my goal is to do a western hunt every year or every other year rotating with elk, mule...
