    What do you do for exercising when you are getting ready for a hunt?

    This^^^ It will completely change how you view training. Most training should actually be relatively low intensity but of long duration (like walking in the mountains). Your body essentially has 2 systems - one for hard work and one for easy work. What you want to do is make the easy work...

    3 person tent or tents for desert deer hunt

    One 4 person tent would probably be lightest and cheapest. With three people the extra room WILL be appreciated. Hilleberg is great but quite expensive.

    Who has done the research on the new Tundra?

    Why not get an older model with the bulletproof 5.7L? I have a 5.7 land cruiser with 175k miles and zero concerns about the motor blowing up or it leaving me stranded. If the cash is burning a hole in your pocket, spend the money you save on a front end replacement, winch, and suspension...

    I need a bigger sleeping bag.

    Key question is whether you want synthetic or natural down, and if you go natural down, whether you want duck or are willing to pay for goose. If you can answer that, and know what temp range (paying attention to whether you run hot or cold, how warm your tent/sleeping pad is, etc.), you can...
