the difference i find in general is the guides are warmer for walk in stand hunting. the axis has those waterproof panels that you can almost feel the cold punch through if your sitting.late season hunting in snow. i sat on a log for 2 hours. the Axis felt clamy cold through the panels. if...
i have like a 20 year old pair of seal skinz. havent used them in a while but they did work keeping feet dry. with rubber Muck type boots i would always rub the backs of the boots and socks out causing blisters. i tried the wool/poly 2 layer in one wrightsocks and they made a difference with...
sometimes theres too much science. a liner sock may draw moisture away but so does merino. the difference is the poly liners next to feet skin feel like clammy damp bags on my feet below 40 degrees. wrightsock co. has a sock that the liner is attached to the main wool sock.they made them kinda...

dont know if its the correct thing but i had a slice in my leather boots that didnt go all the way through. i used super glue and sanded lightly over the top when it was dry. still holding up. came up as a suggestion when i googled it.
a .58 round ball has performed a few bang flops for me on deer. dont think there would be any issues with moose. always wanted to try those 555gr. Maxi balls but i have a 1-70 twist. so i stick with Hornady .570 round balls.things i tried this year and helped a bit with accuracy was using am...
