    Hosking Holsters

    Pretty close to pulling the trigger on a chest holster from Hosking Holsters. Been debating between this one and the Gunfighters Kenai, but I like how I can change the draw angle on the Hosking. The only thing I'm not sure about is the lack of a sweat guard on the Hosking. I'm pretty sure it...

    Laser on a bear defense gun?

    Was looking to get light for my xdm 10mm. I was planning on going with a Streamlight TLR-1 HL when I noticed they make a TLR-2 HL, which looks to be the same thing plus a laser. Besides weight and price, any reason not to get the one with the laser? Anyone else run a laser? I always thought...

    Montana Unit 270 Draw Question

    My buddy and I are thinking of applying for unit 270 for elk which is a limited entry unit that is 100% to draw as a first choice. We have 0 preference points so we are still uncertain of whether we will draw the general combo license. I have a couple questions regarding this. 1. If I elect...

    Zamberlan 4014 LYNX MID GTX RR BOA in a US size 9 or EU 43. Supposed to fit like US 9.5, but I am normally between a 9.5 and 10 and felt these were a little too tight for me. Like new in great condition, not even broken in. $225 TYD - PayPal (+3% for G&S) or Venmo

    Buying insoles to try boots on with

    Anyone ever done this? A few months back I bought and returned a bunch of boots to try on in sizes 9.5 and 10. I settled on the Crispi Nevadas in 9.5 as fitting the best as far as heel slip and sitting in them for a while. The 10s were very close though, and since it seemed like the stock...

    How Much Heel Slippage?

    So I bought a few different pairs of boots to try and am really liking a few of them so far. My question is what should I be looking for in terms of heel slippage? Some places I read there should be none and others I read there should be a little bit at first. Which is correct?

    Sirui T-024SK vs ST-124 vs ST-125

    Cost aside, which would you go with? I am 5'9" so any of them will be fine for my use standing height wise. If I want to use an 85mm spotter while standing, should I definitely go with the ST-124 or ST-125? Is the ST-125 lighter than the ST-124? According to goHUNT it is, but on Sirui's...

    Stone Glacier Xcurve vs Exo K3 for a Shorter Guy

    I am torn between the Sky 5900 and K3 4800, and may end up ordering both and sending one back. Before I do, does anyone have any insight as to how well the Stone Glacier Xcurve frame works for shorter guys? I am about 5'8"-5'9" ish 155lbs and it looks like I would be going with the short...

    Sitka Jetstream Layering

    I was thinking about picking up some Sitka gear with their close out deals going on right now. This will be for my first out of state western style hunt. My hunt will be for Wyoming Mule deer in early November in a rolling hills, sagebrush type area, so wind is a concern with it being so open...

    Razor HD Gen 1 Cold Weather Failures?

    Hello, I was about to pull the trigger on a Vortex Razor HD Gen 1 20-60x85 Spotting Scope (Sportsman’s Warehouse deal) until I watched the below video and read this thread on another forum. Has anyone on here had issues with the magnification rings freezing up on theirs? I will get an Athlon...

    Vortex Razor HD Gen 1 20-60x85 vs Athlon Ares G2 20-60x85

    I am looking for a spotting scope for an upcoming Wyoming mule deer hunt. These seem to be roughly the same price right now. I know the Athlon Ares is really good and punches above its price point. How does it compare to the Gen 1 Razor? Anyone used both and have an opinion?

    UltraPE 400 vs Cordura 500d

    Hello, In my search for a pack for this season I have stumbled upon Seek Outside's line of packs. The packs seem really great and very lightweight. Other than the lack of color choices, I am not really finding any downsides to their packs. I know one of the biggest differences between them...

    Budget 20-60x Spotting Scope

    Hello, My buddy and I recently drew a Wyoming deer tag for our first out of state and western style hunt. The area we drew for (Area X) looks to be mostly wide open sage brush, so I'd like to have a higher power spotter to take along and see deer at distance in what may be a relatively barren...

    Jacket and Pants for Late Season Wisconsin

    Hi everyone, I am looking for a jacket and pants/bibs for deer and coyote hunting in Northeast and Northern Wisconsin. It gets crazy cold here and the activity level will be quite low for the most part (90% sitting still). I bought the Redhead Silent Stalker Elite jacket and bibs on black...
