I have an Exped as well and they are awesome at what they do and I have slept more comfortably on these than any other pad/mattress. I've had mine for about a year and primarily used it backpacking and car camping with no issues at all. I would say their durability is similar to any other...

+1 on the wind and then wool. I grew up tree stand hunting for whitetails in the midwest and as an adolescent thought I needed the latest and greatest in scent technology and got the scentlok gear. I felt I had closer encounters with deer when I wore the stuff (i.e. could drop an acorn on a deer...

I have a buddy that is looking to get into bowhunting. He has around a $500-600 budget. I was wanting to get opinions and advice on whether it would be better to get a lower end new bow or a higher end bow that is a 2-3 years old. I know this is a loaded question and there are a ton of different...

So I am looking to upgrade my scope on my .270 as I am wanting to shoot longer distances for an Ibex hunt coming up. I am a student and on a budget so I am trying to not spend over $250. I can purchase a refurbished Buckmaster 4-14BDC for around $220 or a Vortex Diamondack 4-14BDC for around...

PM sent. Thanks Ryan

I recently moved out to New Mexico to finish up some schooling and by dumb luck drew for the once in a lifetime Ibex hunt. Needless to say that this is all I have been thinking about since I found out I drew for this tag! I have never been to the Florida Mts and am planning my first scouting...
