Does anyone have any recommendations on whether to go with the 24 or 26 stay length?? Would think more would be better. I'm 5 10 with 20.5 torso if that helps. And what is the flat back and normal?...

Hey guys I'm in the market for a new pack as well. What's the main difference in the bikini frame and the hunting frame other than weight reduction? They say they can each handle 100plus lbs. is the...

Well that sucks. Thanks for heads up. So it's for individual units?

Hey guys looking for a new spot for this year and these on top of my lists. However I have never Been to any of them. Have heard in past that they can be pretty good. Looking at early bow hunt sept 1...

I usually stick with one bow year after year. Technology really doesn't change that much every year anyway. Shooting 5 yr old matthews right now, bought a newer one off Craigslist super cheap off a...

Anyone shot next years bows? Would like to hear some reviews. Looking and the new element and the matthews creed or chill. What's your takes?

That's a good question. We didn't see a lot of deer this year compare to 3 years ago. We were a little further north on river on area that had access by boat only. It was tiny but we seen 30-40 deer...

We got into Iowa on the oct 28-nov 8. The first 4-5 days we were the only ones hunting the areas. Starting nov 4th give or take a day people started rolling in. Our hotel filled up over night. We...

Majority of hunting tv shows will eventually discredit real hunters. Just this last year a friend and I were hunting a outfitter in IL. The day we got there, there was a tv show from the outdoor...

Ive seen a few whitetails dropped with lung/heart shot with 7mag in the last couple of years. Never really thought about it that much. I kinda rather see them run myself, then follow the red stained...

Sorry bout that, G5 strykers

Meant to add that I also have used the fleece liners, They work and are cheaper but feel like the bivy worked alot better for me. Mine I think is 11 oz.

Ditto on the cabelas xpg. I have a marmot hydrogen 30 bag. One night the temp dropped down to teens and thought i was going to freeze. Next night stuff bag inside of bivy and stayed toasty warm all...
