    Rain jacket: Stone Glacier vs Sitka

    Sitka Cloudburst Jacket vs Stone Glalcier M5 Jacket. Which one is superior as far as water proof/breathability, weight, etc? I currently own the Cloudburst. Looking at getting away from the camo patterns and enjoy SG equipment. But trying to decide if it would be worth the swap. Thoughts...

    Pants discussion (Timberline, Attack, De Havilland)

    The DH pants are probably my favorite. If I had to pick one pant, it would be the DH. The zips can regulate extremely well, but they do a very good job at keeping warm (My legs don't really suffer from getting too cold). I liked the stretch of the timberline and the pockets better, but no zips...

    Best cold weather glove.

    On the search for a new cold weather/glassing glove. Either really cold or for glassing. Warmth is key. I like the idea of a removable shell. Wide cuffs to go over layer easily. Was thinking between FL Grizzly 2.0 SG Altimter mit BD Mercury mits Or suggestion something else...

    Honest Initial Review of 2 Puffys: SG Grumman vs Rab Electron

    I believe I have a large. I’m 5,8/175 with a 42 chest. Large is money. I usually rock a 145 weight base layer and a typical hoody (Sitka heavyweight or Kuiu Peleton 240). The large has enough room for layering. Long tail which is nice. Hood is big but tightens down. It’s warm for sure. Love it...

    WA state hunting partner

    Anyone wanna go with me this weekend? My original buddy decided to go to Montana to bow hunt. Planning on Thursday-Monday. In the Pasayten wilderness. Any takers? PM me and we can figure it out.

    Wiser precision

    I live in WA state on Whidbey. Looking to buy a wider precision stick connector. Need it by Wednesday. I heard that Wiser Precision is located in Bellingham. Can’t find any info on that to verify. Was gonna drive up there to buy in person so I don’t miss it due to horrible shipping issues...

    VX-5HD 3-15X56 vs VX-5HD 3-15X44

    The X44 has a "illum. firedot duplex" The X56 has a "firedot 4 fine illumination" Whats the main difference? And I tried to see if the X44 had a firedot4 version. Am I missing something and these are actually the same (minus 44x vs 56X) reticles?

    VX-5HD 3-15X56 vs VX-5HD 3-15X44

    First, thanks for responding, always appreciate feedback. When I looked through the X44, it seemed different (the reticle). The crosshairs weren't as dark/visible. Is that something you've noticed between your X56 and X44? Also, could you elaborate on why the X44 fits your type of hunting...

    VX-5HD 3-15X56 vs VX-5HD 3-15X44

    Don't know much about scopes. However, I got my hands on some Leupold scopes today and was really impressed with the VX-5HDs, specifically 3-15X44 and 3-15X56. The X56 comes in a Firedot 4 Fine illumination which I really like. Not sure about if the X44 does as well. One is $1499 (X56), The...

    StoneGlacier vs Western Mountaineering

    Looking at these two brands. Clearly WM is top notch, also top dollar. I like the SG 15 bag, and it’s less $$. What would be a comparable WM bag. Pros and cons to either? I’m 5,9 175 pounds for reference.

    Pants discussion (Timberline, Attack, De Havilland)

    Bummer. I may have to buy a pair of DH lites and see which I like better. I currently own the Kuiu attacks, Sitka Timberlines and Dehavillands (they haven’t arrived yet) maybe DH lites are in the future. Thanks for the info.
