I keep a bond arms snake slayer loaded with .410's in my pocket, none have been given any chance! I don't waste time deciding if it's dangerous or not, if it's within five feet it dies. But I'd like to see YouTube Tests.

I have a pair of chippewas, but the rear seam split shortly after I bought them, and Gander Mountain doesn't take defective products back. They look new and have very few miles on them, it's unlikely I'll get a strike in the heel, but I can't trust such poor quality!

I've had a pair of Red Head Snake Boots for three years. Before I had never had a pair last six months. They're all hot and I've never tested them, but I don't like to get in the Georgia woods without them.

I don't see well in low light, so every bit of light at end of day is desperately important to me. So every scope I have is 56mm. My original Kahles is more than twenty years old, it's now on dad's 30-06 and makes a great rig out to three hundred yards. But my newest favorite is my Schmidt &...

I've always wore hearing protection on the range, for the last twenty years I've wore hearing protection every time I load a weapon. Opening day for doves this year I tried Walker's Digital Earbuds. I recommend them, they protect your hearing, you can hear hunter's private conversations from...

How's the Gavia's end of day performance? Thank You!

The new lease is over 2900 hilly acres (the elevation extremes are 300 feet), I just got a key and looking forward to hiking the trails, scouting for tracks. I have six Game Cameras and I'll get a few pictures. But if you put cameras over the feeders the bucks go nocturnal, worst you get...

Has anyone here done any scouting for whitetail with a drone? Everything I see on YouTube is chasing with the drone. I think most of it's because the lens are to short, forcing the drone in way to close for an acceptable picture. I'll not harass the game, but I want a good photo to judge...

I bought a Leica Geovid 10 x 42 HD-B in 2016. I’m thrilled with the glass & range finder combination, I can’t give a comparison because I’ve never used any other combo rig. I gave up on Leica’s Ballistic Calculator soon after getting it, and the factory front lens covers are pitiful. I use...

I have a Night Force one piece base with a DNZ joined rings holding a Schmidt & Bender 2-25 x56. They're heavy but I've not banged this rig out of alignment yet. I'm a klutz so it's only a matter of time.

It doesn't matter if the weapon has been fired or not. I pull a snake through the bore, and wipe it down with plenty of oil, then clean the lens before I put it in its case. If its been fired I'll clean it with the rod when I get to the house.

I’m pleased to be working with my new Leica Geovid HD-B. Like every review that I’ve read it’s a great piece of equipment, but the front lens covers will not stay on, so there’re useless. If held steady the rangefinder will range to 2000 yards, but I have a flinch, even when I have both...

This year I’m going to buy a range finder to match last years Schmidt & Bender . I really want Leica’s Geovid, but it doesn’t calculate in MIL, neither does Gunwerks G7. A rangefinder would be acceptable, but I'd prefer binocular / rangefinder package that calculates in MIL's does anyone have...

I live in Georgia, while stalking hogs yesterday I got turned around in the woods, I got my cell phone & opened google maps. It gave me a dot with my GPS position, but it wouldn’t download the map. Me not being where I thought I was, totally devoid of directional orientation & no map I went...
