I’ve always used rubber boots for scent control. But had sore feet from climbing on bolts especially when standing to hang the platform. Appreciate any thoughts / recommendations. Thanks
I ditched the rubber boots years ago. Still killing stuff just fine & my feet thanked me. That is my opinion.I’ve always used rubber boots for scent control. But had sore feet from climbing on bolts especially when standing to hang the platform. Appreciate any thoughts / recommendations. Thanks
These?I can't remember who but somebody makes a bike pedal looking thing that is used with bolts... somebody will know the name
I wondered about those but r they for climbing or ROS? I use a platform.
I don't actually know, I've never used bolts because I hunt public land and bolts are illegalI wondered about those but r they for climbing or ROS? I use a platform.
And if I could find a comfortable pair of chest waders to deer hunt in, I'd probably wear those half the time. The water is always 1" higher than whatever you are wearing, and 12" shallower than what your boat will run.
I've been looking at the stockingfoot waders, yes. I've actually deer hunted in my duck waders a good bit. The issue is more with sweat factor than anything else for me. Even when it's cold enough you don't want to get wet, it's usually too hot to wear a body-condom down here.Have you ever tried full length neoprene boots without the attached boots, like this
I used to work daily in the water and found these paired with a set of rubber boots was the most comfortable I could find. Only problem is stuff can get into your boots.
I found these more comfortable for walking and extended periods because the attached boots on waders would really rub my shins and cause sores
I can't speak for WE steps but climbing sticks are no problem with the AB Pros. I wear a 10.5 shoe but go with a 12 rubber boot for the late season stuff .... an 11 for uninsulated early season gear. Best to try them on at the store with the socks you are going to wear to be sure.I kind of actually wondered what its going to be like climbing WE stepps in alpha burly pros during later season hunts? I guess I should just try it, lol. Its pretty hot to be wearing them now though. I'm more worried about foot room with a bulkier boot. Any input?

I wear a 12 in them also. I've climbed in a climber with them already and it's a chore. However i don't think it will be too bad. I really only wear them once it gets really cold anyway. I have a pair or Cordura Rocky's that I wear most of the year.I can't speak for WE steps but climbing sticks are no problem with the AB Pros.
