    Zero turns

    Buying a used low hours commercial mower would be my recommendation. Whatever brand you choose pick one which can be serviced near by you. Personally I am a fan of Ferris, however any of the big names will serve you well so long as you have the support nearby.

    AR triggers

    I have an MBT trigger in my SBR with no complaints and wouldn't hesitate to put them in future builds.

    SO Cimarron hot tent

    Condensation can be controlled in most scenarios by raising one side allowing air to move in. However in a scenario like you just showed with heavy snow the entire bottom would end up being sealed off preventing air flow and allowing condensation to build up. I understand the point of liners if...

    Best belt for your pants to hike in?

    I’ve really become a fan of the Tenicor Zero belt over the past few years. Low profile, infinitely adjustable, can be adjusted without hearing Velcro, and carries weight well.

    Pa Big Woods Archery Success

    The taxidermist had an incredibly short turn around for me and I was fortunate enough to pick him up last week. I didn’t notice it at the time, but he has scars on either side of his face from fighting. That news had me wishing it was November to be back up there trying to find whatever was able...

    Broadhead Success stories

    I switched to Kudu Points 125 gr three years ago and have had phenomenal success with the heads. Most shots have been where they need to be, however this past year I put one through a Whitetail’s shoulder and it exited out the bottom of the chest cavity. The buck ran less then 100 yards like all...

    Compare & Contrast Exo K4 5000 and Stone Glacier Sky 5900

    I like my EXO and have no experience with stone glacier. To me the pack carry’s weight extremely well and the new upgrades to the K4 where well worth it. The bag has the right amount of organization to me and allows me to stash my more frequently used items for easier access. Like you I use my...

    New Zpacks Tent

    Very impressive. To me it's essentially a DCF version of the SO Sunlight, but under half the weight and only $200 more. For someone with the cash it looks like an excellent option.

    Allegheny National Forest - Archery

    Congrats. PA big woods can be extremely challenging, but also incredibly rewarding. I’ve fallen in love with hunting up there and have decided that the local game lands around me will be for taking the kids out and I’ll reserve my tags for up north.

    Conceal carry

    Anytime I leave the house and if I’m working outside around the house as well. I’ve had two incidents with work that changed my mentality on following employer guidelines when it pertained to weapons. First was when a corporate call center received a call from an upset customer who made a...

    Crispi style choice for whitetail saddle hunting

    I can’t comment on Crispi, but I used a pair of Hanwag Makra Trek Combi GTX last fall and really enjoyed using a stiffer boot. I preferred the stiffer boots as when standing on climbing sticks or the edge of a platform your boot remains fairly flat allowing for your feet to remain more...

    Recommendations for best hot tent for 2 people plus gear?

    I’m another Cimmaron guy. While I haven’t don’t two guys in it with a stove it could be easily done with room for packs. Your not going to have a yard sale inside with 2 guys but there is room. I did take my 4 kids and I camping one night in the Cimmaron. 4 of us laying one way with the 5th...

    USED BOW PRICE

    V3X I would expect to see them around 6-800. Matthews and Hoyts in general have a relatively strong resale compared to other brands.

    If you were just starting out what pack would you buy?

    I’m curious as to why you would be recommending aluminum above all? As most big pack manufacturers known for carrying heavy weight are all using carbon composite stays (EXO, Kifaru, and Stone Glacier). The carbon composite stays have proven at this point to carry weight and provide the...

    Football fans???

    Difference was the Eagle had been in free fall since week 11 or 12 when they where 10-1. It really shouldn’t surprise me that Dallas lost as they really haven’t played well in any big games this year or for that matter the past 4 under McCarthy. What hurt the most was how they lost. They...

    Self Defense Options

    My 19 goes with me every time in the woods. Mine has an RMR and weapons light. As you said I have little to worry about here in Pa, however I’m more concerned with two legged issues then anything 4 legged. We don’t have a wild dog issue where I’m at, however we do have coyotes. My brother had...

    The do it all self-defense pistol

    Glock 19 is really hard to beat, but I do like the M&P 2.0 lineup. Either are dependable and do as they are asked from my experience.

    Budget side sleeper bag/pad ideas?

    Used stone glacier Chilkoot 15° for a little over $400 and then upgrade your pad to an R7 either exped or thermarest. You may end up a little over 600 but I think you’ll be happy with the results. The Chilkoot is long enough for a 6’6” person and has some of the roomiest areas in the shoulders...
