    Tent for Alaska

    What are you looking to hunt or when/where? Are you going to be south central or up on the slope? Stoves can be super helpful but not always needed.

    I appreciate the WTB suggestions but I’m looking to purchase new, not used.

    How long to wait

    How long does everyone wait for a product to come back in stock before moving on to the next best thing? Back in August I reached out to Kifaru asking about (Medium in RG) lost park parka pants and they said they hoped for them to come back in stock within a month or two. I’ve talked to them a...

    Polarizer on scope?

    I’ve never seen the need for one, but a scope shade does wonders when you’re practically shooting into the sun. Other than that, the need hasn’t arose for me.

    Puffy Jacket feedback needed

    Any particular reason to go with the half zip instead of the full zip? I’m looking at ordering one and can’t decide which way to go.

    Looking For options to add to my 8X42 - 15x or Spotter

    I’d go option 3. Use your cash and upgrade your current chest binos. I started with a hundred dollar spotting scope and upgraded to a mid tier spotter and now only run a Swaro 95mm ATX. From using a range of spotters I’ve found upgrading your chest binos to a top of the line model gives a far...

    Stay on vs Marsupial style case

    I use a swaro ATX 95 and use only the stay on case. I find I use it far more since it just stays on and I don’t have to mess with anything. With the eye piece it adds a good amount of protection and super easy to put on and off. The objective cover has effectively replaced the plastic cap and...

    Kilo 2400 abs or Leica 2800

    What are you looking to use it for and what are you hoping for it to do? They’re both solid products but each has their advantage.

    How to beat protect glass while in bino harness

    I’m running the NL as well. I use the included covers but when I’m in game and putting them back and forth a lot into my bino harness (such as on a stalk) I just don’t put them back on. My bino harness has a soft material on the inside and I don’t worry about the softer rubber causing issues.

    Kestrel 5700 elite applied ballistics w/ link

    I like the 701 for what I use it for. It does what I need and more as a solver. I think the delta watch is much more of a cool factor than practical from what I’ve seen. I still use a kestral though. I like being able to set two different winds so I know my wind speed drift and my max gust...

    Is a stabilizer really worth it

    How tall are you and how do you carry your bow? The longer the stabilizer the more likely it is to hit stuff and get stuck on brush. The 12 will allow you to use less weight for the same reward.

    Help with 15s

    I ran the swaro 15x for many years and wouldn’t switch to another pair of 15x. I sold mine right before the NL came out. You can find the HD on the forums at a good deal and I doubt you’d have to spend the extra 700 to find a pair. Having 10x and 15x makes a huge difference and you’ll love the...
