Hey all,
As its the time podcasts are all doing their gear dumps and gear of the year I thought it could be interesting and informative if people left just 2-3 things they used in 2024 that were new to them and worked really well for them in their hunting scenarios. I mean I could go over many items I use and have used but thought it better to limit to just a couple new items for the prior season...
For me it was:
Darned Tough OTC Hunting Socks - why did I wait so long to try these? They are as good or better than advertised and are now my primary hunting socks. No seam, super comfy, not too warm, not too cold. I want to wear them every day!
EXO K4 pack (5000) - I've run a K2 3600 for many years and I was very impressed with the K4. The frame the most - it really distributes weight phenomenally well, I quite like their updated rifle holder, my only quible and its super minor is I wish the spotter side zip pocket was only on one side with an open top pocket on the other so I had the option of either style. Dang good pack and looking forward to years of its use.
Panditas Extreme Heat gummy bears - found these at a little store and they are my new favorite hunting snack and gummy bear. I used to be team Haribo Gummy Bear but these have as good or better chew and much better more realistic and more intense flavor. Add in just a minor touch of heat (they are not actually spicy) and dang these are epic good!
Look forward to seeing what others found were new kit that excited them.
Cheers!
