Merino for me after years of synthetics...mostly for the "funk factor". Can't see switching back.
And, between the rain shell and the umbrella/decoy, I'm not really getting very wet on my elk hunts.
All I know is Rockie "called me in" at the NABA Show this year. Had a booth behind me, and ripped a bugle with the new Bully Bull tube...I couldn't help myself, I was drawn like a magnet to it. Never heard a call sound so good, but hey, he's Rockie ;)
Thanks Guys.
Here is the story as she told me by text:
"The other girls that fell out of the hike fell out before 10K, and they're walking fine now, and they rode in the van. They took my pack @15K but left me my weapon and flack jacket. They kept trying to get me to get in the van but I...
Update:
Holli called me this morning (in tears)...she didn't make the 20K.
She has been nursing a groin injury for the last 5 weeks. Didn't want to tell them about it.
They kept trying to get her to quit, she refused. The Sgt behind her told her "If I pass you, I'm going to rip that...

Thanks everyone.
She is heading out to the field, gets to shoot the M27...she's really excited about it. She LOVES to shoot, and she is deadly accurate. Top female shooter in ITB so far.

Just got a phone call this AM...Holli finished the 15K!
She said it was tough, there were three different times when she was ready to break down, but she was able to mentally slap herself, and breathe through it.
3 1/2 weeks left to go. She said she thinks the 20K might be as...
Looks like old Fred didn't hesitate to show a little happiness in many of his pics.
Personally, I can't help but feel joy with all aspects of hunting, especially bowhunting.
If you make a bowkill, and you don't feel some type of elation...you are missing it IMHO!
I'm very pleased with these 125 grain Anarchy Heads...they fly beautifully (but I've only shot them out to 60 yds)...and you can't beat 'em for penetration and durability!
