Finally got it all set for opener, which is just a week away.

Used an old camera tree arm combined with a BOG head for a gun rest.

Plano sportsman's tote on the back to haul the gear.

I ended up making custom toe cups to keep my feet on the footrests... The original velcro straps were horrible

The backrest fabric is a little noisy yet, but I have 7 days to figure that out ;)

I put these over my regular shoes. 18 hunting seasons since paralysis and zero issues so far doing that.

I bought a pair that weren’t from Arctic Shield and they weren’t very good. I read some reviews on the Arctic Sheilds, bought a pair and they were noticeably better. Not a clue why but they are.

Yeah I'd guess so, pretty sure mine are L to go over my size 11 shoes. Your boots are probably bigger on the outside.
