    They are very good. They are right there with the Zeiss conquest 15x56. I had Zeiss for 3 years and was very happy with them. I am going to try 18s for the next years or so. The Zulu9s are definitely the best bang for the buck 15s. https://www.rokslide.com/sig-sauer-electro-optics-zulu9-15x56-binocular-review/

    Glass is perfect on both. I have had 12x50 vortex Razor and the GPO's are better in every way. I have also had Zeiss 15x56 for a few years and the SIG compare very well to the Zeiss. Going to try 18s and 9s

    Good summer hiking boot

    Looking for a boot for hot weather. A boot that is NOT water proof would be great. Boot that breathes well but is still comfterable on 10 mile bush-waking hikes in the summer. Defiantly not gore tex. Thanks
  9. Another great video! Awesome job

    Boots..

    I got some Crispi Summits a couple months back. They have been great. I have probably put 50 to 60 miles on them. Heaviest pack about 40 pounds and the longest hike in them 10 miles. I have had bouts of plantar fasciitis off and on for years. I have got pretty good at managing it but still after a good hike my feet would feel it at night. With the Crispi's my feet feel great after a good hike so far. Very happy with them

    Using salt and cameras to locate a specific buck

    A few years ago I set a cam up in a creek bottom just to get pictures of lions, bears and other Critters for fun. Most of the year creek is dry unless there has been a rain within few weeks. I got lucky and got a real nice buck on it. When I went to go set some salt in the area I thought I don't want to put it in the bottom and make it easier for a lion to kill him. I'm kind of always thinking about where to put the cams/salt lick with less chance's of an ambush from a lion. I set the cam on a side of a hill about 500 yards above where I got him on the cam and he found that salt right away. It's a really thick Hillside, had a small opening and I put it right in there. He hammered the heck out of the salt for the first year. Now he's very sporadic because lots of other deer are hammering it now. He don't like to be around all the other deer. Another thing to think of is if there's cattle in the area cattle will find the salt and very few deer will hit the salt if the cattle are hammering it. Especially a big buck. I have hunted that buck on and off over last 3 years quite a bit between archery and rifle. I still have never laid my eyes on him. He lives in an absolute perfect spot for a buck to get real big. Very nasty area thick/steep and he is way smarter than I am.

    Using salt and cameras to locate a specific buck

    Get salt up as soon as possible, sometimes it takes time for them to find it. Saddles are good spots because of natural movement through saddles. I wouldn't put it in a area that would be easily glassable for other people to find.

  19. Opinions on 6 inch warmer weather boots. Would like a non-gortex if could find them, not to stiff sole boot. I don't like really stiff soles. Boots I have used in the last few years, Lowa Renegades, Danner 6 inch pronghorns, Danner instigators and Meindl perfekt hikers. I have plantar fasciitis flare up from time to time. My feet liked the 6-inch Danner pronghorns the most, I've had several pairs over last 10 or 12 years but they don't make the 6 inch anymore. What does everybody recommend? Thanks
