    Do you like those boots? I’ve never ever had a pair of rubbers last more than a season. I destroy them and I’ve used all brands.

    Yeah I love em. I’ve used lacrosse boots for probably 25 years. These will last me several seasons. They are really tuff unless you catch them on a fence or something out of the normal.

    I had my last pair for 4 years, the only reason I had to get these is because someone stole my other boots out of the back of my truck.

    That’s exactly my problem, I jab sticks through them all the time. Huge holes. Lacrosse, muck, rocky...all of them.

    Sticks? I’ve never had a stick puncture any of mine. Maybe if the rubber was dry rotted. So what keeps your feet warm in these Ohio winters? Last few winters have been mild but I’m thinking this year will be rough.

    Are those the ones you put on after you get in the stand or can they be on when you are walking in.

    I've often thought about getting a pair just didn't know if they really worked.

    I haven’t found any boot/sock combo that works better. I’ll use my lacrosse from opening day down to about zero or close then put those on and it’s like being inside. They definitely have helped keep me in the stand longer.

    Mine have a strap so they hook together, I’ll strap em on the outside of my bag on the way in so they don’t take up any room inside the bag.

    I’ve never had an issue with grip when using them in my lock on.

    Of course can’t beat em in the ground blind

    I only use them with my lock-on stands and never had a problem. I have been able to stay out hunting while my buddies have to head in because of the cold.

    Question. Was doing some shooting this evening and I kept having to twist my peep on almost every shot. Does anyone know how to fix that so I don't always have to look and make sure the peep is good?
