With the poncho type, I use a 1/8 piece of black shock chord that goes around it and my waste to keep it from catching on everything. Still catches on briars and multi rosa. How about the guilie suits? How they hold up in stickers and stick tights, cockle burrs? do the suits loadup on these?

If too hot to hang,,I take the racks and everything out of a Fridge I have in the garage and quarter it up and leave it in there with the temp gage showing about 38-40. Have left them in the fridge for up to 7-8 days and works fine. Then cut it up and clean my mess up and do it all over.

Congrats to all. Happy! Happy! Happy!!!

I have a leafie poncho that I sometimes wear that has added string material for the guile type also. Works great for me and not as hot a total suit.

An 1/8 give or take, to me is a lot. How long have you had the scope? Could you maybe have moved the speed ring any?

Great story and very interesting hunt, and I really enjoyed the pics. Awesome country. Hope you have success in your future endvours also. I look forward to your future reports as you have me totally envious.

I have never used one, but got a good deal on Ebay for a Ameristep Doghouse which is 11 pounds and goes up super easy in a couple of minutes, and down about the same time. As I get older, figured someday would have to use them vs. tree stands, so going to occasio...

Our corn is brown now, a...

Use the broadhead you feel most comfortable with reguardless of what type it is. When your confindence level is highest, everything works and makes you feel the most comfortable and confident and happy. No second guesses when your at that level. Good hunting.

Congrats on your first kill of the year. Pace yourself,,its a long season and plenty of time to wack some more!

All good things comes to those that wait.

Nice eating you have there. Wack em and stack em. Enjoy.
