[QUOTE="coyotelite, post: 601039, member: 40602"] CLOTHING-sitka or kuiu are the top of the heap. I am leaning toward kuiu now because the quality is just as good and the prices are a little more reasonable. On the other hand, they do not have the selection sitka does. BOOTS-lowa, hanwag, kenetrek and crispi are all equally good. All depends on fit. Each one has a unique fit but all are superior to danner and the like. All will run upwards of $300 PACKS-This is where the money gets crazy. My personal preferance is kifaru. My kifaru timberline T2 is 5400ci. with the multicam pattern, grab-it and xtl lid it cost me $796. However, this pack will carry more weight with more comfort than any other pack on the market. My next choice would be mystery ranch. These packs are bullet proof as well. The only drawback is that The load lifter angle on the MR packs makes them more of a load stabilizer than a lifter. In my opinion, the Timberline line from kifaru is the ultimate bivy hunting pack on the market. MISC GEAR-Go to REI and ask for help. Their staff is the best and their warranty can't be beat. All of their products are good quality as well. I see a lot of hunters spend top money on their bows or rifles and then skimp on everything else. Getting to where the animals are comes first and sub-par gear will make that part harder. [/QUOTE]
