    Built my son a custom shorty. BAT Bumblebee action, Manners EH4 stock, and 18in Proof carbon fiber barrel. Chambered in 6.5 Creed. Gun will finish under 8lbs depending on the optic. He’s a good shot. We hunt a mix of timber and open food plots. Shots primarily under 100yds…but we have the...

    Hilleberg Nallo

    I have plenty of floorless shelters / stoves. What I need is a Spring - to - Fall shelter for me and my two boys (ages 9 and 10). I’m considering a Nallo 4GT. Wind and rain can be pretty severe where we hike / hunt. As well as the ticks. Anybody have an opinion on the Hilleberg Nallo?

    ZPacks Triplex Performance

    Considering picking up a Zpack Triplex for the warmer months when bugs are more of an issue where I’m hiking / scouting. I need a light 3 person shelter when I take my two sons with me. How do the ZPacks shelters do in wind and rain? Is performance on par with my Seek Outside Redcliff?

    Is the SO DST Tarp outdated?

    I’m looking to pick up my first tarp. Backpack use so I’m weight conscious. Primarily as a quick pop up shelter for glassing, butchering, getting out of the rain in a pinch. I have a SO Redcliff and 16man tipi. And the DST tarp would make a nice edition to those setups as an awning, vestibule...

    Youth Bow

    Stopped at my local bow shop today with my youngest son who is 5 1/2yrs old. I went in looking for a basic bow. Something a level up from the toy bows Ive had him practicing with. They recommended to me the Bear Cruzer Lite compound bow. I was shocked to see a compound bow so small. It...

    Stake loop extensions

    What is the easiest way to pitch tipi or pyramid shelters a bit elevated for improved airflow? Is there a way to make guy out extensions using cordage only that will allow for this? How do you ensure a right pitch? Or do you need to use linelocs on the exitensions to adjust the tension?

    Anybody have a SO Redcliff? I want to order two liners for mine. But the pictures on their website show the liners only covering two sides. I’d like 360 degree liner coverage on the inside. Do the liners completely cover 1/2 of the inside? So one side wall and one door panel? Doug
