[QUOTE="Quicksilver338, post: 2957574, member: 108268"] Nobody tries to abuse their scope. And people who argue form’s test procedure have never hunted out west either. When you’re miles back, alone sometimes, and encounter some **** you’re going to be happy when you’ve invested in the right gear. Because that’s all you have that separates you from a successful hunt or going home empty…sometimes between life and death depending on the conditions. I’ve fallen a few times, super steep terrain on a packout, hit that one patch of wet grass or a branch hidden in the ground under that wet grass and you’ll be out from under your feet quicker than you can realize what is happening. Icy conditions just suck as well, as careful as you can be and you’ll still fall. We aren’t walking the back 40 to your tree stand, we are out navigating cliffs and mountains. This is not a post to pound the chest of western hunters, but I feel some guys here are missing the point. Simply put, **** happens. [/QUOTE]
