    Securing long gun to pack for walk-in

    Those of you who have your rifle or shotgun on your pack rather than on a sling, whether it's backcountry hiking or a shorter walk in, how do you handle it? I reckon it wouldn't be too hard to lash a rifle to a backpacking pack with extra straps and whatnot, and I think some purpose built packs...

    Get a lightweight plastic or polycarb sphere, start making an antler globe and hang that sucker up with a small light in the center

    What lens to get?

    An 18-55 kit lens will suit you just fine to get started in all likelihood, but maybe consider the 50mm f1.8 is handy for shooting in low light, say at the dinner table after dark or other indoor situations as well as a nice light lens to just walk around with. They're pretty ubiquitous and...

    Optic selection for folks with glasses?

    Hi y'all, I have modest farsightedness with astigmatism in both eyes and I've had some trouble using binocs or scopes with my glasses in the past. I assume good binocs can compensate via eyecup adjustment but I've also heard electronic optics can be bad for astigmatism, anyone have thoughts on that?

    Adding volume to insoles

    A tip I once got is to consider filling volume on top of the foot if you can't get the insole shimmed how you want it. I used a cheap mouse pad as material in an old pair of hiking boots like this and although it's kind of a pain to put on and get them situated sometimes, it felt pretty good and...
