Were is the USB port?

I lick a 9 volt battery before hunting.

And those pesky metal fillings in my mouth, but it's nice to have a radio every where I go!!

Science has proven that some species of fish, birds, turtles and mammals can detect electromagnetic fields. It is also proven that all living organisms, including humans, emit significant electromagnetic fields (EMF). This EMF radiates outward in waves that are readily detectable by modern instrumentation. The intensity of your body's EMF is directly correlated to muscle movement.
Increased muscle movement, such as a heightened heart-rate, creates a more intense EMF.
The above is true, I have known it for years and have experienced first hand. Unfortunately, no shirt or other "gizmo" is going to reverse the effect of the above afore-mentioned phenomenon.

The hunting industry is just one in which consumers can be suckered into just about anything if it's marketed well. I bet four or five of us could sit around a table, have a beverage of choice and come up with a 'gimmick' to put a few bucks in our pockets by making people think it will put bucks in front of them. :wink:

Hey Bob,

I started bowhunting a few years before you and I had that Hi-Tech camo back then. They were a set of coveralls with WWII camo pattern. Man, I thought every critter in the woods would be dead within a week! :lol:

Then my first "real" set of camo was some reversible stuff made by a company called Ranger. That stuff was pretty good and lasted a few years. But day in, day out I hunted in blue jeans and plaid shirts...and killed deer in it. No one told me I had to have head to toe camo, carbon suits, emf absorbing shirts and all this other junk pushed by companies today. :evil:

I'll be the first to admit that I've bought a few gimmicks over the years, but nothing as drastic as that shirt!
Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me some venison; And make me savoury meat, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless thee before I die. Gen 27:3-4

Heck, everyone who knows anything about this electrical stuff will tell you, All you need to do is carry enough grounding wire up in your tree, wrap it around the bare skin on your ankle, and attach the other end to the ground rod at the base of your tree. :D

These guys should be prosecuted for this crap!

By the way, anyone remember Roger Rothaar? He killed several record book Mule deer and he's a stalker. His average shot was something like 7 yards. He also wore no camo. He favored red checkered plaid shirts and jeans or shop pants.

Randy Ulmer is a paid mothpiece for whomever will throw money at him. He used to be a pro shooter for Browning I believe, and all of a sudden, almost over night, he's some kind of Mule deer Guru. He's a joke!

This is the stuff right here that irritates me to no end!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
