I bought one recently to use for SCUBA and marine "just in case." I have the 66i now and love it. Have been using them since the Delorme InReach days as well. For solo hunting, wouldn't go without it.
Specifically on the Mini, it's perfect for what it's designed to do. Small, compact...
echo the above posts ... when you say "is already set up," was it set up for you? Definitely check peep height, like Mighty Mouse suggests. Other things to consider ... release style (hinge/BT/handle versus wrist strap) and anchor point consistency.
Good luck!
Hi all!
I've been registered here for a while and been looking around for a long time. Time to get active!
Great site and have learned a lot already.

Like others have said, I think many like to try new gear and figure they can get most of their investment back on quality gear like Kifaru. I've been running the same Kifaru pack for years now and love it. Just bought the sleeping bag from them for next year's hunt.
