    Bummed about Swarovksi Customer Service

    I put a piece of camo sticky felt in the middle and it snugged the binos up perfectly. I'll have to look into the pan stud. Iv'e used both extensively. The Swaro adapter is much more steady and allows less movement of the binoculars. Yes, you probably should take the binos out to move around. I'll take the less movement over that ability any day. I find lots of animals from an ear flicker or a step. Another time I hand tightened the outdoorsman adapter and when I tried to take it off it was too tight. I didn't have a wrench with me and couldn't take them off till I got back to the truck. PhxDT, You should head down to outdoorsmans and try it. You will see what i'm talking about. It is a good adapter, it just has a few quirks that I don't like too much. A lot of guys like it though.

    It's not wrong, thats how they are designed. They hang from the stud, allowing the user to move the binoculars closer together, further apart and swiveling to the left and right. If you sit back behind your tripod, like you are looking at the eyepieces, do yours turn clockwise or counter clockwise easily? The 5-6 different outdoorsman setups I have used do. That is my main complaint. Not to mention the pistol grip is much too sensitive. When you squeeze the trigger the whole binocular wants to fall like there is not enough tension in the pistol grip to hold it up. Try this: Once you put the binos on the outdoorsman adapter and twist to lock it in, put your hand under the right side of the binocular and push up. The left side of the binoculars will tilt down. This is the swiveling I'm referring to. It drives me crazy. Here is what I use: There is no swiveling with this adapter. I use an old Bogen heavy tripod and this adapter. There is no movement even in pretty good wind. In heavy wind the outdoorsman setup will shake like crazy compared to this.

    I disagree. If you like your binoculars swiveling when glassing, get the outdoorsmans adapter. I will not use anything but my old Swarovski adapter. It sits much more stable than any adapter I have found.

    Gun mistakes

    They fixed that problem. Get a new metal magazine and you won't have that issue anymore.

    Same here. Last bull I killed was within a mile of where he summered. They don't always move.

    Waitin' on Draw Results

    If you have been waiting 40 years, then you must have missed a lot of years. 26 is the max points for sheep.

    Where to buy roll of foam.... 2" or 4" for sleeping

    Mesa sales has a nice 2.5 inch foam pad. 30 inches wide and 72 inches long for $44. These are in stock. They have a bunch of other sizes but they have to order them. They do have a 6 inch pad though...

  16. The eraser method is quick. Try it out.
  17. I used to detail vehicles. The best way believe it or not is a pencil eraser. Buy one of the block ones and try it out. If you don't have one of those just use a regular pencil eraser. It is much faster than any other way. And no, I am not kidding.

    Bye Bye Dish Network!!

    I got rid of Direct TV 2 years ago, best choice I ever made. $50 less a month and all I need is hunting shows and kids shows for the kids. My Roku and Netflix covers our bases. The Roku has a lot of hunting stuff on it btw.

    Early hunt dates

    Does anyone know what year the early archery hunt will get bumped back a week? This year it starts on the 11th, last year it was on the 12th. I know once every 7 years or so it gets bumped. thanks

    WTB Lab pup

    I'm also interested in finding a lab. I don't see any black labs coming up on that website. Any other ideas?

    Which One to Mount

    Neither. Too many mounts can be an issue. I'd euro them both and put them on the skull hooker.

    KUIU "Sale" is a joke..

    You guys need to read the email. It clearly says that it's only on in stock items right on the bottom of the email. Don't blame them if you don't read the whole email.
