    I have the fanatic jacket, no bibs yet. Heated vest under the fanatic is pretty sweet!

    I found some shed antlers while cleaning out my FIL’s shed so I made my first set of authentic rattling antlers. Yes, I know they are both right side :lol:. Hopefully, I will get a chance to test them next week.

    Love the fanatic jacket and bibs….hoody, not so much. The hoody is not very warm. I like the way it fits though.

    Good luck guys, I’m back to work today. Still up in the air about taking Friday off.

    First sighting. It's hard to tell in the pic but his right base is broken under the skin. His whole head is lopsided, bet he has a headache [​IMG]

    I need to just do it…. Have had my eye on first lite, pnuma gear, and sitka for years and i always balk when it comes down to it. I did buy some plythal stuff and its ok but ive seen the sitka up close and its pretty damn impressive

    Yeah, I've never understood the rave about the fanatic hoody. It just doesn't seem like for the money it's a very useful piece. But I've heard alot of guys say it's their fave.

    I think the birds are in a contest with the squirrels to see who can break my neck first

    The hoody I use yearround, early season it’s my outer layer, as the season gets deeper I use is on top of my base layer, I like the build in face mask and tight fitting hood.

    I was a Sitka hater but I admit its good stuff. Definitely better than some of the 20 old year stuff I have. Lots of good options out there. Get off your phone and shoot a buck or doe.:biggrin: Lets go Brandon!

    Truck is packed, waiting for the work bell to ring, then I'm off to find skywalker aka Little Chief....Pretty sure this is how it'll go down.

    Somebody shoot something for those of us stuck behind a desk today!

    Got the next two afternoons off. Best I could do with all the **** going on at work.

    I may have to sell back some Vaca time or carry it into next year. Have never done that in the 30 plus years I have been here.

    Of course, it hasn't been allowed in that time either. Lol.

    Sucks that carried over time has to be used by end of March. Maybe this is more rant thread type stuff. Hahahahaha
