    Badlands Point bacpack discontinued

    So, my first impressions of the bag. It carries well, and the belt does its job to distribute weight, the I'm not sure how I feel about the molle loops instead of belt pockets.. The access into the main compartment from the back is very nice; it's off to the side so it's more like side access...

    Glass in the Saddle

    I’m thinking I’m just going to start hanging the harness between my tether and my bow. I hunt the ground just as often as I sit in a tree so the protective harnesses suit my needs lol.

    Glass in the Saddle

    Does anyone saddle hunt with a Bino harness? If so, do you have any advice on how to manage interaction between the harness and bridge? I find that the harness is greatly attracted to the bridge, and it can Be quite hindering when trying to use different positions around the tree.

    saddle hunting

    If you cannot seem to find a Madrock at a decent price, I recommend checking out the Mammut Smart. I currently have one and while the idea of a Madrock still seems appealing, this device has no moveable parts that can mechanically fail, and seems to work the same. The key is to use the proper...

    What bow is everyone shooting?

    This. I went into the shop a few years back to buy a new rig. I was dead set on purchasing a Triax and after 3 hours in the shop I left with a fully rigged Vertix. I’m a short guy, and thought that the shortest ata would be best, but the extra 2” on the Vertix seemed to do nothing but help...

    FNG from Louisiana

    My dad used to hunt out there, by red river, and three rivers, good hunting but oh so many people. The Kisatchie has some nice hunting too, I have a buddy who lives in Pollock. I hunt a bit further south, on the outskirts of New Orleans.

    Louisiana FNG

    😭 I could literally just wait out my time, and go spend 50 more bucks on the item I saw and buy it brand new. Lol

    FNG from Louisiana

    Depends on what portion of Louisiana you’re speaking of, it’s all different. South of I10 is pretty much all swamp and some rough times. A lot of work for not so big deer. It’s also very hard to pattern in the swamp, the deer seem to be very erratic. North of I10 there are loads of hard-bottom...

    PSA:Remember to Slow Down

    No little ones, but can speak towards many of the outing with my own dad and this is a very important mindset to have. My dad has only recently, with all of his children grown or nearing, obtained this outlook. This is not to say that there weren’t any fun times, but the majority of the trips he...

    😯 there are so many of us. Do any of you guys hunt public here, or am I the only dummy?

    Louisiana FNG

    I’ll be completely honest, I’m just trying to get my post requirements done so that I may enter the world of the classifieds. I had made an account some time ago, though I don’t recall my login info— I shall not lose this one. I often just roam the threads lurking for advice and gathering the...

    saddle hunting

    🫶🏼 I literally bought everything to make a one stick out of a trophy line wingman, thinking It would save me money and overall be lighter than 3-4 sticks. Boy was I wrong. I’m sure after buying the saddle kit and everything needed to repel and make the one stick, I spent more than if I would’ve...

    Bow spider attachment

    That’s really neat. I was bought one as gift, it’s currently attached to my vortex glasspak, I’m not sure how I like it yet.
