Curious if it makes a difference on what products you use? I try to support RS sponsors if the product is a good one. What products do most of you use from site supporters?

I have gotten some great use out of several. Here is my list from what i can remember.

Seek Outside- Unaweep and Peregrine packs- Both have been terrific!
T.A.G.S BOMB kit- worked flawless on 3 elk and 5 deer. Still in good condition
OnX maps- Best app ive ever paid for!
Train To Hunt- fun competition in the off season
Kryptek- Great gear and i love the patterns
Kifaru- only the gun bearer, not really a fan of the packs, gun bearer is awesome
Vortex Optics- I think they are site supporter. Razor HD binos, Viper HSLR and various other scopes
Christensen Arms- Classic Carbon , love it . but im not the best LR shooter
Mountain Tough Fitness- love the 12 week mountain hunt program


Im sure i will think of a few others, but its a start anyway. lol

What are some of your favorites?

I think the only one this forum has influenced me to use is Black Ovis since they offer a discount for members.. although I use a lot of sponsor products most of them I used before joining and some I didn't know were sponsors

I use a lot of products from companies that happen to be supporters. I'm not even sure who all are supporters. From what was mentioned above I have spent a small fortune on Sitka, Kifaru, Vortex, Onx, Nikon, Christensen Arms (MPR), and more. I also have bought from Pods8

BlackOvis- Ordered some Sitka stuff for my wife through them, and an OV bino harness for myself. Got good deals and quick shipping.

Camera Land NY- Bought a Promaster XC525C. Fantastic price and good guys.

Camofire- A few different things, and even returned something. Never had an issue, and even had good conversations with customer service.

Exo Mtn Gear- Helped my Dad order a 3500 last year. He loves it, and packed out a quarter of my brother’s bull last year. They were even able to get him a military discount.

goHUNT- Have used the Insider trial before, and ordered a Marsupial gear bino and rangefinder harness. Also saw Brando and Lorenzo in Colorado last year during 3rd rifle.

Kifaru- Bought a DT2 in 2014, well before I was a member of Rokslide. Very happy with it, and the accessories I’ve bought more recently.

Maven- Got my wife a pair of 10x42 C1s. Very impressive for the price but I don’t love them personally. Met the guys at the Denver ISE this January and enjoyed them and their B-series.

MtnOps- My wife wanted to order some protein powder from them, so we did. I’m indifferent to their products as a whole.

OnX- Have used their products for years. I rely heavily on OnX for a handful of hunts due to boundary issues.

Outdoor Vision- Ordered an OV bino harness through BlackOvis. I have tried many bino harnesses and this one is my favorite by quite a stretch.

Outdoorsmans- I lived in Phoenix for a couple years and spent a lot of time there testing out optics. Bought a pistol grip and love it. Had great experiences with these guys. Met Mark and thanked him for his service.

Phone Skope- Bought one last year and rely on it. Helped me capture the kill shot on my Colorado rifle bull this year while I was hunting alone. Hunting solo during rifle I hate not knowing where I hit, and having the Phone Skope helps with that tremendously. Luckily this time my bull dropped but I would have known either way.

S&S Archery- Have used their expertise on lightweight tripod setups, but haven’t actually bought anything. Always a great conversation with these guys.

Sitka- Have a Jetstream jacket and Timberline pants. My favorite late season set.

My list is too long to type. This site has the sponsors anywhere. I Thought Bean outdoors was also a sooner on here? I might be missing him on that list...any way I have made a couple purchases. (bow sights) from him and the prices and service were excellent

Bought a stone glacier pack from 1shot gear, a couple Sitka accessories, vortex binoculars, many little things from camofire.

Honestly if skre hadn’t hooked up with Rokslide I don’t think I would have given them a thought. Too many options out there to keep up with. Glad they did and I like their products and customer service.

EXO and FL as a direct result of them being sponsors as well as satisfied users here. Cameraland was a recent purchase but CL and Doug are well known to the shooting sports which I used to participate in. Use Vortex as well which is known all over.
