    Minimalist Flexible Boot Thread

    I am on my second season in these Boots. Great boot for me. Uninsulated but waterproof. I would not call them minimalist as in close to barefoot. But certainly not stiff like a mountain hiking boot. Just the right amount of support and sole for me. Kind of in between the minimalist and full...

    Ropeman Safety

    You tube has many videos of people demonstrating how to one stick. And I have seen them with three or four feet of slack at times. Watch them if you haven't, you won't have to watch more than a couple to see it. Also a lineman's belt is not attached to the tree but around the tree. Personally...

    Ropeman Safety

    Totally agree with you. Slack is the enemy. That is one of the many benefits to JRB climbing. Slack is minimized to a few inches. The most slack is on your upward move. How much slack depends on your style. If you double shove up on both hitches while simultaneously standing up. You can keep it...

    Whos had more saddle hunting influence?

    Minimalist to some degree. We'll see if a saddle comes.

    Whos had more saddle hunting influence?

    As of yet no Infault saddle. Which figures given how he loves to disparage saddle hunting.

    Whos had more saddle hunting influence?

    Infault sells tree stands but no saddle in the lineup. Probably has something to do with his viewpoint on saddle hunting... Follow the money.

    30-30 help me decide

    Get a Henry with side ejection. Shoot iron sights. But get a gun you can put rings on. As you get older, if God grants you enough days. Your going to want that scope. Henry comes with a lifetime warranty.

    School me on rain gear

    I have kuiu and really like it. But my other kuiu is highly rain resistant. I could hunt all day in a drizzle and not get wet inside. So I don't use my rain gear to hunt a lot. As in a shower the blood trail is quickly gone.

    The warmest boots

    I had the same trouble. Two things, that work great for me. My second season in these boots. When it gets into the teens. Thoroughgood 2400s. Next item your socks. If your not in them get alpaca heavyweight hunting socks. Say least 95% alpaca. Wool is not a hollow fiber. Real alpaca fiber is...

    My Feet Hurt

    I have a predator. I like it. Quite a bit of adjustment. My wife and I have had plantar fasciitis twice. My son once. A friend at church once. For all of us EasyFeet was what we needed. I have them in all my footwear.

    My Feet Hurt

    First thing I would recommend is EasyFeet inserts, red and black ones. They will help your feet so much. Take your old inserts out first. About $20. Secondly tilt your platform down so that your foot to leg angle is closer to the normal 90 deg.

    Cruzr XC color choice

    I have black. Honestly if you sit still and hunt the wind well. The color is not going to matter. If they are staring up at you enough so that the color matters. Your already busted. IMO.

    Ebikes. Are they worth it?

    I have a rad Rover 5. Fat tire and E bike is a great hunting tool. Three seasons on mine. Very happy. Most places allow a class 2 ebike anywhere a peddle bike is allowed. A class 2 bike is limited to 750 watts at the hub.

    The Dangers of Short Static Falls

    My guess is you have never built a JRB system and you have never climbed JRB. So now your a self pro-claimed expert in a rope climbing system you have zero experience in. But you trying to convince those of us with hundreds of hours of experience with the system that your "expert" opinion out...

    The Dangers of Short Static Falls

    Well good to have debate and hear your thoughts. At 69 I would not call the hip thrust in DRT easy by any stretch of the imagination. Slack, yes your bridge may or may not get some slack in it. It depends on your upward move. For me, I have my arms up and my hands on the bottom of my hitches...
