    I bought some camera gear to film my hunts this year. I hope to get some good footage to share with everyone.

    It would be awesome if we all get our hunts on film. Aaa I guess it’s not film anymore. Lol

    Thats awesome! I really like the XOP sticks better than the Muddy Aerolite ones I currently use only because Muddy sells them in a 3 pack instead of a 4 pack like XOP and doesnt even offer the ability to purchase a single additional stick. Just really started to hang and hunt last year and good sticks like that are a must. I really like mine but wish I could get up a few feet higher

    My known hot spots I put up hang ons and love climbing sticks cuz they’re quick and easy to take down so I can leave my stand up and not worry about them getting stolen cuz I take the sticks with me. When I run and bow I use my summit open shot climber most of the time, it’s super light and smaller to get threw brush. I tried out the xop sticks and fell in love, really durable and have the curved steps and get better footing because they have an extra 1” gap from the tree.

    When I opened this thread I sent everyone a message, did you guys get it? The only reason I ask is there is only a few of us that are active right now. I was a captain a few years ago and there were only a few of us that were active and it wasn't fun. I'm trying to figure out how to get everyone involved. I thought I could send a blanket message to everyone just asking them to look at our thread and have some fun . Any ideas?

    I’ll be hunting with a Triax this year. This weekend we are working on our dove plot since season is two weeks away. Next week I’ll be taking the tractor over to our lease. Need to do a little brush hogging and try to get a few more stands hung. Oct 1 will be on us soon!
