    Sky High

    I don't run trail camera's, gasp !,.. but the other guys who hunt the farm do. I saw this buck last year on another part of the farm and since he was living in the marsh I figured he would just be a ghost seen after dark. The first two are obviously trail camera pics from the chase phase, day...

    Rain Chaps ?

    I have a Core 4 element rain jacket with pit zips that work well but no rain pants, other than heavy ones for fishing on the bay. Was thinking about these but not sure if it is necessary.

    The big 4

    I was invited to hunt a great farm this fall. There is a history of big deer coming off it. One of the guys who hunts it runs cameras all over and has several pictures of this guy going back to 2012, at that time they think he was 3. He was shot at and missed twice this year, ( same guy...

    My Mom gave my wife and I a queen size down comforter, the wife is allergic so it is sitting in a 45 gallon contractor bag. It's heavy and probably has 3-4 inches of loft, queen size so that's a lot of feathers ! Anyone have any experience in re use of down ? I was thinking about an underquilt...

    Perspective

    I stole this image from Instagram and thought it was pretty cool. This is from 1955 and Emma "Grandma" Gatewood became the first woman to thru-hike the AT. Look at her "gear", when I do I hear that little voice in the back of my head telling me I need to HTFU ! :cool:

    Any Rokslide folks going to the BBTC ?

    The Baltimore Bowmen's Traditional Classic is coming up in mid May. Any Roksliders going ? With the exception of last year I have been there for the last 13-14 years or so. It's a good time, three good 30 target courses and lots of vendors. If you are going let me know, maybe we can shoot a round ?
