    Active hunting / upland layering -- What ya using??

    At the risk of another layering thread, I'm going to past anyway and try to save myself some money and time burning through combos that don't work. This is really geared towards upland hunting, but I think applies to any active hunt where odor control isn't the #1 priority. I got hooked into...

    WTS Final Rise Summit Vest

    $200 Like new final rise summit vest - only worn for one hunt. Vest is in great condition, just too small. I will also throw in a ranger green long pocket that attaches to the back of the vest. If buyer wants, I can also throw in 2x blaze orange side pockets for +20.

    $325 Crispi guide boots with ABS and 400 grams of insulation. Worn twice while whitetail hunting in PA - great condition. Note the coloring on the threads in the close up pictures is just from the beeswax i applied last season in prep, but were never used. Great deal to be had...Going to get...

    Molle sticks on kifaru packs?

    I have a kifaru pack and also a final rise upland vest. Both use the three bar metal attachments that pass through the molle webbing. Do they work? Yes no problem. But I have to admit I’m a fan of the more traditional weave methods. I find they secure the pockets tighter, and I’ve noticed...

    Searching for a camp slipper/slip on

    Most of my hunting involves either deer/big game from a cabin or upland game from a truck. However I am doing a good deal more upland DIY traveling via RV. I am looking for a slipper to wear around the camp/camper. Essentially just to hang out by the fire, walk around camp, cook outside, etc...

    Firstlite outerwear/Specter dilemma

    Last year I came on the forum and got great advice on the catalyst. I hunt PA archery and rifle from oct-dec. ORiginally I wanted to run the catalyst pant and jacket, but was told that the jacket is likely too light a system even with layering to carry me through PA nov-dec temps. In came the...

    All about Idaho

    I've recently taken a position that will be out of Boise ID. I know the big game is superb, but I'm looking into upland opportunities. I've seen they have an access yes program which seems like a great opportunity. I'm sure I'll blow my legs out chasing chukar around the mountains, but I love...

    Where the HECK are you buying ammo?

    Does anyone have a recommendation on where to find some 12 gauged lead load 5-6 shot? I know I COULD use 7 1/2, but late season/preserve roosters I'd rather just be safe with 6 or even 5 if that's all that is available. I found ONE box for $70 offered... YIKES! I had a smart father who...

    Flat land prairie boots?

    I started off the season with a pair of Irish Setter vaprtreks. Wanted a waterproof lightweight hiker at first. Boot is insanely comfortable, however leaked like a siv and is already started to tear at and come undone. Hoping this isn't indicative of their wingshooter series. Then, with deer...

    All things Pyke gear review...

    I'll apologize ahead of time for what will undoubtedly be a long-winded, rambling, off-the-cuff review of a few different products. If I leave anything unanswered, feel free to as herein and I'll do my best to get back to you. So far, it's only 1/2 through the season...but even with only 10-15...

    First Lite Catalyst or Solitude system?

    Well I was expecting some new system release with Spectre...and after being let down with that, i guess I'm back to my original dilemma... I mainly do archery and rifle whitetail hunting in PA from October-December. Thus, temps can be variable (0-60), but oftentimes hover around 20-40...

    Upland Vest: Q5 rimfire vs centerfire?

    Apologies for doubling up, but I’m in a pickle with which vest to go with. I do mostly all pheasant hunting (2 bird limit) but sometimes carry 3-4. Do mostly half day hunts but never go back to truck once I leave...and I’m interested in doing more full day jaunts. Weather is around 20-50...
