I'll be using their UPF Hooded long sleeve shirt for Archery Deer here in Texas this October! First year with it, and it's held up well to fishing so far.
I've actually been using and old Eddie Bauer Adventurer bag for a good long time now. It used to be my school bag but now holds all my basic needs while out.
I've had IT Band issues in the past from running, and doing hamstring curls and leg extensions was actually a great way to build strength around the area.
