    New pull on leather boots

    Looking for new boots, for everyday use and some hiking and field work. Something like a cowboy boot but with a bigger toe area, more like a work boot. And have vibram soles, no gortex or waterproof membrane, and no insulation. Also made in Canada or USA. Not a lot of boot stores near me, so...

    Nikon fieldscope ed60 vs 50?

    Anyone use both? I have the 50mm with the better zoom eyepiece and the 27x wide angle. How much difference is there with the ed60? Weight isn’t a concern. Just wondering if it would be worth it to pick up the body only. The 50mm is nice but, it feels not enough sometimes.

    Anyone regret using a non HD/apo spotting scope?

    I’ve been looking at a meopta s1 75. Both apo and non apo are available, but the cost difference is about 600$. I think all the spotters I’ve used in the past have been HD glass. Any insight on the optical differences? Is it a must have? Will it affect lower light performance? Or how about...

    Anyone use these? Mainly interested in the one from Kodiak canvas. Are they practical? Or are they to much of a pain to set up and take down constantly. Any feedback by users would be nice. I’m considering one. I’d like to camp in the back of the truck more, but don’t want to spring for a...

    Outdoorsman tripod stability

    Considering upgrading. I have a manfrotto be free tripod with the before fluid head. I use 10x42 Binos and a 50mm Nikon. Sometimes a 65mm spotter. I find it a bit shaky sometimes. Mainly in the wind or if it’s fully extended. How much more stable would an outdoorsman tripod be? Maybe just...

    SG eco 3300 vs solo 300?

    Is there a difference in the bags? I might be picking up an evo fame, and was wondering about the bags. I like the internal spotting scope pocket on the solo. But if the evo has it I would just get that bag. Also if I put a solo on the evo frame, with lid would I get, the sky lid or evo lid? Thanks,

    Just about ready to pick up a brooks pack, new or used. What’s everyone’s experience with the internal load shelf? Mainly for bone quarters. Any other feedback on the pack? It’s either that or a unaweep and daypack Merlin and kid. Probably a 4800.

    I really enjoy using a fixed power wide angle eyepiece for glassing with a spotter. Something like a 30x. Vanguard doesn’t make one for their endeavour HD. Does anyone know if there are other wide angle eyepieces that would be compatible?

    Kifaru native on molle frame?

    I’ve got a molle frame and was thinking of using it with a day pack as sort of a compression panel of sorts. The native seems like it would work well, maybe paired with a guide lid. In theory it sounds like it would work well, wondering if anyone has done so? Or other packs to consider? I’ve got...
