    Has anybody here actually received a stimulus check?

    Hmmm....put in savings or new scope...savings or scope... I think this covid stuff has shown a lot of folks the value of savings (with a real life lesson). It's funny, no where in the news do you see folks saying get through this and build your savings. People living on the edge...

    WTB WTB Vortex Doubler

    utter waste of money. You will see better and clearer without it. It doubles the magnification but cuts clarity in half. Put the money towards a good tripod to steady binos, or a better pair of binos..or a spotter

    Ti stove and stove jack

    I'd shorten the stack (maybe 3' above tent)… With strong winds the stack might want to move the stove.

    Remember....some of the best eScouted glassing spots are foiled by 100 foot trees. Don't discount where you sit in relation to the trees.

    Best way to carry rifle on my pack

    I have the Stone Glacier sling on my Kuiu ultra 1800. It took a bit of rigging (strategically placed zip tie) to make it work flawlessly. It's great for having out of the way and I deploy my rifle up over my shoulder vs swinging around as they do in the videos. Way faster. The only drawback...

    chains for snow, what do you use, especially 4runner or tacoma people

For my truck specifically (2003) to be ready for chains I'll tub the firewall, bushwacker cutout fenders, I have a 3" suspension and 1" body lift. Next will be some wheel spacers to give...

    Surgery recovery (shoulder)

    They make a device you can attach to your bow that makes it cockable like a cross bow. You could check with your state to see if they issue medical allowances for those devices (based on doctor note obviously).
