I guess I don't understand then. What does a "hunting" boot offer that a hiker doesn't? What height do you typically wear? I typically have waxed chaps with wider cuffs that "settle" and mould to the boot and I've never had an issue with stuff getting into my socks. I'm not talking about a...

My two knuckleheads

I used to hunt both big and small game with "hunting" boots. What I've found is that a true hiking boot is typically far superior to hunting boots when it comes to actually walking. Right now I'm using Asolo TPS 520 which are extremely lightweight, waterproof and last a long, long time. They...

I love my cabelas "tin" chaps, they have zippers but are lighter weight than the filson double which is what you have to step up to to get zippers. I also have Under armour which are really comfortable and great for walking in fields or thinner stuff. For really tough cover they aren't the...

I'll usually be found with either my Uggie 20ga or my Benelli Vinci, opposite ends of the spectrum but both sweet in their own ways. The problem is sometimes I forget I'm carrying a wood gun when I go to set it down on the road, fence, rock, etc.. Sometime using a tool instead of a work of art...

We are planning on being there but still finalizing the details. We had a great time at the show in Milwaukee last year and looking forward to meeting a bunch more huntin fools. Swing by and introduce yourself if you make it out to the show.

Just a matter of days left here in Colorado, looking forward to getting everyone the rest of their sling orders and then I'm out to do my own hunting. Best time of the year!

I am totally interested in this as well, this year I'm planning on spending more time than usual hunting dove...and looking forward to it!

If you're just interested in a shooting range with lanes Colorado Clays Cherry Creek Reservoir Blue Core shooting (indoor to 100yds) These are the closest public areas to you for rifle.

I don't think it matters on when you steady your dog. If you want to let them have fun and bust birds the first year that is a fine thought process or you don't ever allow them to creep from day one. The thing that matters is that after you START training them to be steady, creeping is no...

Very Nice!! I had ambitions to do this but we sleep a lot in the back so I ended up with just an Owens Aluminum that I pull out when we want to sleep back there.

Bury it for a few days and run it over a few times to loosen it up a bit! They only get better with age

I also love my Wingworks for longer days away from the vehicle or whenever I need to carry more weight. If it's just a short field or an hour away from the vehicle I just throw on a lighweight cheap vest as it's just so simple If you're a walker and like it, go with WW. It's a buy once, cry...

The barrage of catalogs is constant. I agree, they would lose nothing by only sending me sale post cards and the bound book. I end up with 4-5 in a pile before I can look at them and in the trash they go. I'm gonna change that online, no need to waste all that paper

Check out Wingworks, I believe they make a universal one for their vest but can be attached to anything with the brass snap
