Re: those with summit climbers

The treewalker seems like a winner. :) i dont think anyone deals them but treewalker... ive only seen them...

Re: those with summit climbers

Rich, have you heard of the treewalker stands? They are atthe hunting show everyyear and a friend has one and loves it. Its light also. Only downside is that its a little long. I just cant stand the summit open shot. No room to move in when seated and I dont like using my arms anymore to climb. I ma...

those with summit climbers

which do you have and how do you like? I have the older version of the open shot which I dont like as much anymore. Im not a big fan of the ones where I have to use my shoulders and arms to basically lift the bottom part. Are any of their models the type you sit and then raise the lower part while c...

Re: H and R ultra slug hunter

20g with the bull barrel here also. I shoot the partition golds also and love it. At 50-75 yards it drives tacs. At 100 yards I have 2-3inch groups on average. I wouldnt get a 12g though. To much kick and way to heavy of a slug. The 20g is like shooting a ML'er with 150 grains of powder and a 260gra...

Re: What is a good Cam to buy?

trophy cam is a good all year camera..

cuddeback capture is a good camera. I like it better in the cooler air. The bushnell works great in the summer heat. Both are good in the 159-199 range

Re: Hunted in the rain on Saturday!

heavy rain = no:)

light rain off and on can get big deer up moving... light drizzle is the best time to hunt a field

Re: Arctic Shield gear

I was going to say the samething about covering all over. Just the jacket wont do it. You will lose heat around around your hands and neck. Add a facemask, good gloves, boots, and pants and it should work great. If you keep your face, head, and neck warm usually the rest of you is good to go also. I...

Re: Height of Hang-on & climbing stands

12-15ft 90% of the time depending on cover. I never go higher than 18ft since I hate heights!
