    Sig Sauer Optics Zulu 9?

    Update: I just ordered the Sigs from Midway. The price has dropped to 640. I have to try them at that price!! I ordered the 9s. Savings can go towards a spotter!

    Water bladder vs bottles

    I really wanted to love my 3L plat. Bladder, but I can’t. I now carry 2 1.5L smart water bottles, usually only 1 full as I do have access to plenty of water where I hunt.
