    Deer Contest Regrets

    I got my first saddle at the end of the 2019 hunting season so obviously I didn't get in on the contest. I joined the contest the next year (2020), broke my ankle in October. No deer that year for me. The 2021 season I hoped to contribute, nope. It was a rough season with a lot of missed...

    Wearing a belt

    Ok I'd like to get some opinions from y'all. I'm hanging in the saddle this morning and I can feel my belt on my pants digging into me. Granted it's a homemade paracord belt, it's rather knobby and stiff. My question is, is it just me and my saddle placement or has this pants belt problem found...

    Yellow Jackets

    This may be North Carolina specific but I'm not sure. Out scouting today and I came across a half dozen or more yellow jacket nests. All of the nests I found were 6-8 inch holes in the ground. I have never seen them in holes that big before, usually one or two bee size holes with active yellow...

    Deer Movement in the Rain

    It's a nasty rainy day today and while at work it got me to thinking. What are all the theories, thoughts or opinions on deer moving in the rain? From drizzling to down pouring, hunting before the rain starts and hunting after the rain stops?

    Uninsulated vs. Insulated Hunting Boots

    I want to start this out with a NO SHAME comment: my feet sweat no matter what boot I'm wearing. That being said, is there a noticeable difference between uninsulated and 400g boots? I am looking to get a nice pair of lace ups and not sure what direction to go in. I have a set of boot blankets...

    Bow Sights, Whatcha Got?

    What bow sight is everyone using and why? I'll start. I'm using a G5 Optix xr2, I strayed away from it for a couple years to ride on the single pin train.

    Rain Gear?

    Just want to throw this out there. I need some feedback on what everyone uses for rain gear. For years I brought out one of those Mossy Oak tree umbrellas and used that when it rains. It's not always the easiest to use when trying to hunt in good cover. Also this is my first year in a saddle and...
