  1. Almost all boots are made in China and Vietnam now. I think the only American made boots I have are my 3. Pair of Danners
  2. The elk trackers are the others are like a lacrosse burly
  3. I don’t know why it said Field and Stream, https://www.irishsetterboots.com/hunting-boots/Elk-Tracker/00860.html And muck Artic pros
  4. I have muck boots and a pair of field and stream knee high neoprene and rubber for wet areas and bow hunting. The real game changer has been my new Irish Setter Elk Trackers for cold day stand sits. 1000 grams and Vortex bootie. Warm and comfortable like slippers
  5. The day started out great two separate groups of does one had 4 the other had 2 , came by the stand early then a big body buck pushing a doe down the hill came by no shot. It stayed around for about 45 minutes finally saw it clearly at about 50 to 60 yards big 10 pointer the doe was huge still no shots left the stand around 9:30 On the way home my buddy asked if I could help him drag one out. Help them drag out this pig of a deer 3/4 of a mile through the woods lotta Hills dressed 178 9 pointer.
  6. I think it’s from the doe situation. We used to see large doe groups 7+ now it’s usually a single or 2 or 3. It causes them to spread around more there the bucks have to really work at it, keeping on the move more and longer
  7. 3 so far only two of us hunting, we could have taken more too. As gun season goes on we will take some more
  8. Here is my experience. I only hunt public land. Me and my buddies started killing as many does as we had tags for about 7 or 8 years ago. Since about 5 years ago the quality and quantity of really nice bucks has gone up. I am having my best year as far as sightings go, I have yet to sit without seeing deer. Usually if we take 25 trips 10 -15 we wouldn’t see any deer. In the last 3 years I have killed some great 130” + class Deer, and some 130”+ with one going 154”. Previous to our settling I. On does the average buck we would see was about 80-90”. We have been hu ting the same spot for 15-17 years
  9. Thank you, that’s a nice one as well
  10. Thank you. Saw lots of deer from the stand today. Let this guy walk. Was hoping he was going to make it to my buddy in time , but he didn’t. IMG_4589.MOV
