    Game Vests

    Thanks for the reply. I did see the Orvis one online, but we couldn't try it on in the store because they had no game vests in our local Orvis. Being right around the same money as Prois, I think we would probably order the Prois instead if we are ordering blind. The feedback on the Prois...

    Game Vests

    I'm looking for a game vest for my wife. I am looking at upland vests, but really I do more rabbit hunting these days, with some mixed bag hunts. She's coming along for her first hunt in October. Is there any game in town other than Prois for women's XS or maximum S size vests? We have...

    Pacs in deep snow?

    Edit: Oops, no idea how I accidentally put this in the DIY section. I go out to IA a couple times a year for rabbit and bird hunting and in the late season, my boots aren't cutting it when the snow gets up. I've never owned pacs, but have been considering a pair for winter hunting. Are they...

    $50 FL Guide lite pants

    I wear a 34x32 pant. For reference I have some waist room in the pair of 34x32 Wrangler cargo pants I'm wearing right now, and my Skre 34x32s fit a bit tight (they are known to be "fitted"). I ordered the 36x32 FL pants and the waist fits about the same as my Wranglers. I could probably go...

    Is there a new Hoffman code? Rokslide15 is accepted, but doesn't take anything off.

    Brandon Butler's Cabin Burned Down by Poachers

    Yeah, the first podcast to talk about it was two weeks ago. This week Brandon was back for an update on the situation. Some of the notes are in this thread, but I skipped past them when posted so I could listen to him tell it on the podcast. It's only the first 5-10 minutes of this week's...

    Brandon Butler's Cabin Burned Down by Poachers

    Also listen to the update in this week's podcast. Three other places were burned in his area over the last couple years.

    Brandon Butler's Cabin Burned Down by Poachers

    I believe he was banned for not taking the warning he was given and mouthing off to an admin.

    Brandon Butler's Cabin Burned Down by Poachers

    I think literally what most of us are saying is that the "big change" comes from people stepping up and doing the right thing. And we have one poster who seems OK with just sitting by and letting them get away with it instead.

    Ammo shortage = Increase in archery?

    I doubt it will be a meaningful increase due to the shortage. Most hunters are already used to paying a premium for hunting ammo and, while it's harder to get, it's not impossible. Most already have enough ammo for a couple seasons also, even if they weren't getting ready for a shortage. If...

    Army Corps says no to massive gold mine proposed near Bristol Bay in Alaska

    My take is that it just means they are stalled 4-8 years. A company that has a 120 year outlook can wait the new admin out.

    Honestly, just annoying you seems to have been worth the cost of donating.

    Brandon Butler's Cabin Burned Down by Poachers

    Did you take any time at all to become familiar with the issue? Because it seems that you didn't. This wasn't his first incident with poachers or trespass and he didn't press charges at the beginning. And you may want to learn a little bit about what "work" Brandon has done in the area before...

    Skre Gear

    I've never hear anything but good about their exchanges. Let us know. I pulled the trigger on both shirts they had on camofire today, so we'll see how the large goes for me. I doubt they'll do the VIP sizing thing for non-direct orders.

    Lightweight scope

    I like the Swaro. I went through a similar decision with the Z5 vs the VX6 and went with the Z5. They deliver a lot for the weight and at your ranges, the 1" tube will not be a hindrance.

    New guy from NC

    Another guy from NC here. Not a very experienced hunter, but I try to get out there and make things happen. I tried my hand at DIY bear hunting here in the mountains and I really started understand why they use dogs out here for bear. I had a really tough time finding glassing areas or sign...

    Brandon Butler's Cabin Burned Down by Poachers

    The older I get, the less interested I am in dealing with anyone like that. Hopefully the cops are involved by now and helping to get you sorted.
