    Biggest deer hunting weakness?

    Hunting my food plots and not hunting the bucks that use them is a big one for me.

    Help with Cruzr XC

    I had the same experience and others have noted your set straps are too tight. I wear mine very loose and don’t notice any man part stress anymore.

    Random color blind question

    Im glad to not be the only one that feels so incompetent.

    Random color blind question

    Same here! I’ve found out my mother in law is great at tracking… lots of IOUS earned over the years. The only thing I have noticed that kind of helps is a blood tracking flashlight. They don’t even help that much, just turns the blood jet black, which ends up being easier to see than the...

    Random color blind question

    I am r/g as well but believe I’m the same as your friend. I would love to see a bright blood trail some day! If floydfreak ends up with them I’d be curious to know how they ACTUALLY work.

    Platow and dump pouches

    Yes- the additional webbing is tied into the existing structural webbing too. I’m still surprised why there isn’t a handle there initially

    USPS/UPS Ought to Thank Us

    I might beg to differ in that. At least in the UPS case. Imagine dropping off a van full of packages when it’s -25 for a high. Or when there’s a foot of snow and the roads or sidewalks haven’t been cleared. I used to feel the same but when our UPS guy started to show up as I was putting my...

    Any Minnesota meetup?

    Where near Bemidji are you? I am in Bemidji and can possibly recruit another one or two.

    Light wind proof outer layer- need recommendation.

    Id wear a black trash bag if that says much. The plan is to just use it as a shell with base and mid layers as needed. I have warmer outer pieces for when the temps are colder than say 40 for a high.

    Light wind proof outer layer- need recommendation.

    I don’t care to get into a Sitka Vs First Lite battle. Just putting that out there. I’m looking for a light relatively non insulated outer shell for bow hunting out of a saddle. I tried a Sitka stratus jacket on and wasn’t a fan of the cut as it seemed short in the front and long in the back...

    Amsteel Mods

    1/8” material. I don’t recall the length of the loop but it starts with around 20” of Amsteel. My intent is to have the loop just a little shorter than the short side of the prusik as seen in the image. They just seem to function best for me that way.

    Amsteel Mods

    I just made a continuous loop and girth hitched it to my carabiner.

    Platow and dump pouches

    Cloth welded a strap in a very needed place tonight. Found myself always reaching for one here. As we are a community of DIY spirited folks I thought I would share.

    Platow and dump pouches

    I must not be flexible enough. I tried unhooking my platform and my sticks and although it’s possible it’s not terribly comfortable or easy enough that I wouldn’t rather just put the pack down. Must just be all of my bulky muscles?

    Platow and dump pouches

    Played with the pack tonight. I wasn’t really able to get too comfortable with the dumps on the saddle but that’s not much of a deal to me. I believe it’s partially attributed to the cheaper Amazon pouches just being rigid and large. That said- after getting the myriad of straps set up I am...
