    Kifaru Straight Jacket Lid

    I run the OG guide lid on mine when I need the extra space. Attach a buckle to the extra loop on top of the frame sleeve to the lid and run a strap on each side from the bottom of the lid to the lowest black compression loops on the side of the frame

    Kifaru Stryker XL vs Straightjacket

    I ran a straightjacket all season packing stand and sticks. Definitely wouldn’t call it “unusable” for that purpose, but I run a small stand and packed soft items like base layers and a puffy in the wing pockets. I added compression straps to hold the stand, wing pocket straps are non-load...

    Crispi & schnees

    Have a pair of Beartooths that are on their 4th season and still going strong. Added SheepFeet insoles this season and the combo is hitting the sweet spot. Good balance of flex for walking miles on trails/logging roads but stiff enough for the steep stuff with a loaded pack. Great ankle...

    Durston X-Mid Tents

    Really interested in this shelter, seems really well thought out. I’ve heard Dan updated the upcoming batch of 1p to have a larger inner, to accommodate taller users. At 6’5” I’ve been back and forth between the 1p and 2p, it’ll be interesting to see how that plays out.

    Cost effective puffy pants

    Thanks for this OP I picked up a pair earlier this year. Had been wearing ASAT leafy suit bottoms over top for treestand sits. Definitely going to give the Rit Dye a go. I might try mimicking ASAT/predator/macro camo pattern with some fabric paint after the dye. For the price, I’m happy...

    Best pack for public land whitetail

    I’m using the Kifaru Straightjacket this season. Really like how it handles stand, sticks, and gear. Also cinches down pretty slim when running cameras or going light. Used a MR Pintler last season. Nothing wrong with it, but the Kifaru frame is night & day difference IMO. Also like the...

    Opinions on KUHL gear?

    I picked up a pair of their Radikal pants cheap at a restore, they’re breathable, move well, and held up to brush as well as can be expected for a lighter weight pant. Actually, one of the most comfortable pants I own. Find myself reaching for the Kuhl pants over Sitka or First lite more often...

    125 fixed blade broadhead setup and experience

    Yes, his parameters put him in the 400/390 category. The adjacent categories (both length & poundage) are 340/330/320. So he is on the upper end of the 400 spectrum/nearly into 340. That’s why I stated “he’s on the edge of 340/400” in my above post. I agree with you on not relying on the...

    125 fixed blade broadhead setup and experience

    Not necessarily... His length/weight puts him right on the edge of 340/400 according to easton’s chart. Better to be a little over-spined (stiffer) vs under-spined, especially when shooting fixed blades. It’s a lot harder to get a softer spined arrow to tune with fixed heads, I think that’s a...

    125 fixed blade broadhead setup and experience

    I used to shoot ST Mag 125s and never had any issues, but never really fell in love with them either. Tried Magnus Ser-Razor 125s last year (pics below) and it’s a pretty devastating little head, holds up really well to light bone impact (scapula/ribs) on deer-sized game. Used a 100 grain...

    Non-custom insole recommendations

    I’d be interested in giving the Sole inserts a try for a more custom fit. I’m running superfeet green now and they’re alright but I’ve started getting sharp arch pains after a few miles of uphilling. Never had any foot issues before, I think I need something with more arch support or a deeper...
