    Deer recovery in bear country

    I had an encounter with a black bear in some central PA big woods. As I was packing up my gear after deboning a deer a large black bear walked up on me at about 30-40 yards and trotted away after seeing me. I started processing the deer around 1:30 and the bear appeared at 4pm, which was an hour...

    How much moisture can down absorb?

    I know that goose down doesn't insulate when wet. If you build up a sweat when moving and then put on a down garment when you are stationary, that sweat will start to work its way into the down. I'm curious how much it can absorb from sweat being wicked off the body and into the jacket/pant...

    Gray Wolf Woolens Boot Blankets?

    I bought a pair of Wiggy's mukluks last year and used them for treestand hunting in the PA late season. I packed them in and put them over whatever boots I was wearing (both uninsulated and 7mm neoprene rubber boots) and was able to test them for about 3-4 hours in 15 degree F with zero movement...

    Saddle as a safety harness

    If you have climbing sticks or a ladder and your tether is tied to the trunk, how can you get stuck, apart from knocking yourself unconscious? There was a guy at my local gamelands who had to be rescued because he wasn't able to get back up but I don't know what kind of set up he had.

    Saddle as a safety harness

    That makes sense. I have what's called a shock pack on the end of my lanyard. It's wrapped in some kind of vinyl or something so it feels rubbery. I never put it to the test but they are sold as 'shock absorbing lanyards.'

    Saddle as a safety harness

    Thanks for the input everyone. I think the reason I was unsure about how the saddle would handle a fall was because I was assuming the slack in the tether would be similar to that of a full harness. My full harness always has a little slack because of the length of the tail but it has some...

    Saddle as a safety harness

    I see more hunters using a hybrid system with a small mobile stand and a saddle which makes for a versatile set up. Is there any reason that a saddle would be less secure than a full harness when hunting from a normal stand position with your back to the tree? Normally when saddle hunting the...

    Does the waist belt for the infernal frame detatch? On the SG website there are no options to select a belt size.

    Stone Glacier Avail for smaller bodies

    Can anyone give some insight on how this pack would fit a smaller woman ( about 5"6", 120lb)? I didn't see any official specs for adjusting the pack for different sized users. Thanks

    I have an unused set of the XKG Windstorm rain jacket and pants in size large. The jacket fits true to size. I wear a size 34 pant and these have an adjustable waist with elastic so I think they are made to fit sizes 32-36 but it would depend on the layering. The pants inseam measures 31. I...

    Pullover with Kangaroo Pouch

    Does anyone have a favorite pullover jacket with a kangaroo pouch? I like these for a quiet outer shell for cold weather tree stand hunts. There doesn't seem to be many on the market. I know of the Sitka fanatic but that is a full insulated jacket. There is the Kings Camo Wind Defender, Midway...
