My local MT friends call them "ball savers", used mostly for sitting on to stay dry but also for crossing fences safely.

Great shot, Len! Sounds like you may have made a few LR converts in the process!

Sweet. Fantastic Pics. Glad you didn't pop the other three. They would have thought you were showing out. You did cut them some slack...right?

Len,

Great trip. In perusing the pictures you show us, the one observation I made and really enjoy, is the way the cammo each gentleman blends in to their surroundings. I just bought an outfit in the cammo pattern of the coat the gentleman is wearing in the second picture. I was hoping it would blend like I see it does in the picture of them together (he's the one on the top R).

I was somewhat dubious in purchasing that pattern, but was hoping they would give the blend and break-up I now see from your pictures they will.lightbulb

One more thing, in addition to this website, I can't thank you enough for. By the way, where you were hunting last week, is now over a foot deep in snow!
