    Huntworth Windstopper

    I have a Huntworth pull over that has wind stopper and I think what they call their sherpa lining, I believe it is considered to be their second heaviest weight before getting into full insulated garments. The fabric and construction seems to be pretty decent, though it is much lighter than I...

    What’s New for Kifaru?

    Has Kifaru ever thought of doing a Bino harness? Seeing as the company appears to be seeing some of the suggestions in this thread, I'd love to see what they could come up with. I have seen several videos of Aaron talking bino harnesses and optics carry systems out there, seems he always feels...

    First Lite 2021

    A more durable Obsidian sounds pretty awesome, I love mine, but I find myself not using them as much as I would because I'm scared I will rip them up, and they aren't cheap. Which brings me to my next point, I'm scared to see how much they are going to hike the price on these new "durable"...

    To anyone with experience with multiple of the r main hunting brands, is Kuiu the only one that incorporates stretch into their rain gear? Mainly as it pertains to Sitka, kuiu, first lite and stone glacier?

    What bow is everyone shooting?

    Mathews Halon 32 though I'll be in the market this spring, considering the RX5 ultra, EVL 34, Mathews Atlas and hopefully I'll get this rumored Mach 1 in a 34-35 ata to through in the mix as well. Love the crosscentric cam and like the evolve as well from the few times I've shot it, hoping the...

    Sig sauer "cross"

    Anyone seen one of these in the .277 chambering? I know it says "released" on their website, but I have seen nothing but the 6.5 and the .308. That was the thing I think that most drew me to wanting to try one of the rifles, getting full on .270 ballistics(give or take 100fps or so) form a small...

    Hoffman Explorer vs. Schnees Granite

    How would you rate the stiffness of the Nevada compared to the other two? Any comments on the fit of the three, I am considering a new hunting boot for next year and have been strongly considering the Nevada but am open to others. Also do you have an opinion on how these models compare to the...

    First Lite Specter

    That’s what I’m hoping for, there are a ton of other companies out there making membranes, Kenetrek uses what? Windtex or something? I agree that I doubt goretex would allow FL to use their tech to compete directly with Sitka but I’m sure FL can find another membrane that will probably come...

    Fuse vs kiln?

    I have the fuse crew and zip off 3/4 bottoms, cannot recommend them enough. I went with the fuse over kiln because I felt the higher synthetic content(I think aero wool is 75% wool vs merino-x is 95%) would provide better durability, shape holding and wicking. I wear a merino tee and synthetic...

    Sitka help

    Not really exactly on topic for this thread, but has anyone tried using some of the EV2 pattern in a western/spot and stalk type scenario and does it work close to as well as the subalpine? I know out west there is still quite a bit of gray and dark shades, and both feature the same digital...

    Predator ambush or cabelas instinct stand hunter

    I have not checked out the Instinct stand hunter yet, but I have checked several of the other new releases in the instinct line and have been very impressed. I own several pieces from FL and Sitka and would say the new instinct stuff is very comparable probably on par with the FL outerwear(which...

    Big and Tall ??

    None of them have been in stock, I looked at the older listing for the instinct active or glass pant, can’t remember which one and they said 34, but that might not carry over. I guess we’ll have to wait and see. I did purchase the mid weight 1/4 zip hoody and hybrid puffy vest, both in XL, fit...

    Help with 1st significant bino purchase

    Thanks everyone for your replies so far, I'm definitely thinking that I might try to wait around and see if I can pick up some swaros on the used market, especially as someone above pointed out that they are releasing brand new glass that hopefully will make some motivated sellers looking to...

    Help with 1st significant bino purchase

    So I'm looking for a little bit of advice here, I am looking to make my first significant Bino purchase and am looking for some advice from people with experience with different levels of glass. Currently my only binos are a pair of 8x32 redfields, received them as a gift years ago and they have...

    Big and Tall ??

    Same height and inseam as your self and I can second the Cabela's being hit or miss with the sizing. I do have a couple of items from first lite purchased this year, so newer sizing. I find myself to be an XL in things where I would like more of an athletic fit, and an xxl if I'k looking for...

    Kuiu Talus vs Sitka Timberline

    How would you describe the difference in fit? I’ve been able to try on Sitka, mountain and ascent, so I assume timberline will be good if I go with those. I have to order the Kuiu to to try so just trying to get an idea if I’d like them or not, they are a bit cheaper than the timberline, so...

    Kuiu Talus vs Sitka Timberline

    Interested in opinions from anyone that has used either one, or better yet both. I am looking to use them on a 3rd season hunt in CO but also as a general cold weather outdoor and hunting pant back here in the Midwest. I own a couple of pieces of Sitka gear already and have been very happy with...

    Sitka sizing

    I tried on a 2x of the new one at Cabelas just the other day, I'm 6'5 and 260 and it was about perfect for an outer layer, in the base layers like hoody I usually go XLT but the fit is snug. I also tried on an XL to see if I should order an xlt and it was too tight across the shoulders/back to...

    Western pack for whitetail hunter?

    I am in the same boat as yourself, Midwest whitetail and turkey hunter but I will be taking my first of hopefully many more trips out west this fall(3rd season rifle in CO). I have been eyeing up both the Nomad 2 and stryker from Kifaru international with the intention they would make great day...

    Eddie Bauer

    I was actually just looking at the guide pro work pants thinking those might be kinda nice, like a sitka timberline lite version were you have the tough material on the seat and knees which I think is very useful for hunting. How thick are the guide pants in comparison to say the sitka mountain...
