    Virginia Public Land Law Change

    Mystery ranch

    I am pretty much same width as sticks. I do have to watch out going between trees sometimes but it works without too much snag. I don't like up and down dice I am always ducking under something.

    EWO cable aider beast sticks size?

    Make sure to use the top bolt and not the lower bolt. You will have staving issues using lower bolt. I bought the shikar bolt set for my cable aider 1/4-20 x 1 1/4" hex head (Shikars). Dan was supoose to update but have not gone back to check. Sent from my SM-G981U using Tapatalk

    Best backpacks for saddle hunting?

    Saddle Hunting Backpack

    I still have not commited to going saddle yet and use the hand climber and assault with shoulder and hip belts. I was hoping to buy one system that i could use for all 3 systems. Idealy the pack could sandwich the stand between pack and frame. But the kuiu and popup 28 may fit the bill. Kuiu is...
