    Heel Blister Prevention Tips and Tricks?

    Unfortunately I think this is the issue. I have tried a few different tricks, and my foot still seems to move around. I think I'm going to have to bite the bullet and find some new boots. I'll head over to the boot thread now.

    Heel Blister Prevention Tips and Tricks?

    Thanks for the suggestions. I'll have to grab some moleskin or second skin. As to the damage, my left heel had a quarter sized blister that opened up and all the skin ripped off. Working on getting that better. My right heel has a blister that popped, but I didn't lose the skin. Both were...

    Heel Blister Prevention Tips and Tricks?

    Hoping to get some tips and tricks here. I wear a pare of Cabelas Meidl hiking boots in the field. First year I wore them, had zero issues. Second season, blistered one day (logged 12 miles that day), and now this season heels are just wrecked. I blistered before getting out of the first...

    Some folks just don’t have any luck.

    Garmin Alpha/TT15 Tips and Tricks

    Well my venture into the Garmin Alpha will have to wait. Got the box home from Cabelas, open it up ready to start playing with it. The handheld it there, but no collar. My store doesn't have any more in stock. So I'm now waiting on another kit to be shipped to the store.

    Plantar Fasciitis

    Yep, I did this as well. Not sure why I only focused on the golf ball.

    Plantar Fasciitis

    I had a similar issue a couple years ago. I did all the stretching and all that, but the thing that helped me the most was to take a golf ball and roll it around on my arch and heel every morning. This helped to break up the muscles that were tightened up. Stretched the tendons/ligaments...

    Why are 16's more common in a SxS configuration that an O/U for double barrel guns?
