How to make Blind Hunting More Enjoyable
I have a pair and i love them! Very warm!
I do like mine, althiygh they rub the skin of my shin and calves if I don't tuck my pants into them.
Just found your vidieo,on bridglock stabilizers...to pricey for my lifestyle. Check out titanium archery products TAP... Sam is a good man, with a good product.price is good quality is great! Service and personal touch is great. Get lots compliments on my Mathewa Image in O D green and TAP accessories.... just sayig....
I bought a set of carbon stabilizers front bar, v bar and weights in Amazon for $90 2 years ago. Never have a single issue and they still look great. It’s just a carbon bar not rocket science, why pay over $300???
Your right it's not rocket science at all, I got a good deal on everything, and wanted to see if it was worth it.
where did you buy it from? its suppose to have plastic sinch tabs to secure the loops looks like somebody was tinkering with products before it got sent to you
I believe i ordered it from Lancaster archery.
$600? dayum. just picked up a new open box for $240
When they were brand new, they were expensive, they are going on 4 years old now. Much cheaper.
LMAO hell no😅😅
Thats a pretty funny response🤣. What are you running for stabilizers?
I have a single electric handwarmer that doesn't suck. gets decently hot, but battery is crap. amazon is probably the best bet
Thanks. If you know the brand, that would be awesome!
camera guy sounds handsome
Lol
I love mine! Honestly one of the coolest things in archery.
Awesome, i dont mind mine, just the price.
And pick up some leather gloves with wool liners. Superior glove in Ontario Canada makes some nice looking stuff. Lineman mitts with wool liners. wholesale only .
Thank you.
Try Felt pak boots with leather uppers.
I will look in that, thanks so much
Rubber boots do not let moisture escape. Your feet give off a lot of moisture. Quickly your socks will become damp and your feet are gonna get cold. A couple of things have changed my hunting completely. I wear good quality Danner boots and some Rocky boots. I have some that have 600 grams of thinsulate insulation, some 200 grams and some basically none. A few years back I bought a pair of icebreakers over boots. These are the older version that goes up nearly to my knee. I have a junk yard seatbelt sewn into a loop. I attach to the loop with a flat strap that has adjustable clips my hunt comfort fat boy cushion, the over boots and a spare wool shirt and a wool vest. Plus anything else I may need. Easy to carry. Sit on the soft thick cushion. Plus, as soon as you sit down put on your over boots. Your feet never get cold and your behind doesn't start hurting from sitting. I always hunt from the ground and being comfortable and still are very important. Leather boots don't spread scent unless they have something on them. I never wear my boots anywhere except while hunting. Apply any waterproofing at the end of hunting season so any odor has a long time to go away. My clothes are washed in scent killing soaps. Only wear fabrics that pass the scratch test. If your fingernails make any sound on the material find something else to wear. Several layers of polyester underwear with wool pants and shirts will keep you warm in very cold weather. Adding a sniper veil helps a lot also. Good luck.
Appreciate the detailed response. Thank you!
Dude, awesome response! Thanks for all the info.
Crispi Wild Rock plus boots are great. But same for me if I sit for very long feet get cold. So Hot Hands / Toes packs help a lot. Also I am trying Logol’s Iodine drops. Others have shown better circulation results. Hope it works.
I saw some guy on here saying he drinks water with cayenne pepper in it before he goes out in the cold. helps with blood flow. I have the same problem . try doing some power walking say a few miles before you go out . gets the blood flow going. wear good quality wool socks. also keep you core warm. I like polypropylene tops and bottoms and a heavy wool sweater on top . wool torque. and mitts with wool liners.
Thanks! I'll give it a shot
Thanks buddy
Schnee pac boots are great with an extra felt insole
Thanks, i will check it out.
I purchased the Viper bridge lock stabilizer and really like it but this whole bridge lock stuff is Bullshit really. Mathews marketing can sell ice to an Eskimo but people keep buying it.
Your right on that. I will look at the viper stuff, I have never heard of it. Thanks for your post.
Sorry that happened but thanks for your honesty
I hate that thing. Thanks for watching!
How fast do the deer empty your feeder out?
If it's corn, 3 weeks to a month cause the squirrels throw it everywhere, and raccoons can get it out too. If it's feed pellets, sometimes 3 months.
I've been thinking about getting one. Right now, I have a gravity feeder that's basically a barrel that puts the feed on two sides on the ground. With corn, they can empty 250 lbs in less than a week. The raccoons help out a lot, too. I'm not sure how much is deer and how much is racoon usage. But 250 lbs in less than a week is getting expensive! I have a lot of deer that frequent the food plot/ feeder... on average, about 20 to 30 deer per evening. I don't hunt the plot or the feeder, so the deer feel safe and spend several hours there several times a day. Morning and afternoon, they are more sporadic. Evening they wear it out.
@Natedwebb I would get one, then it will be a good investment, saving you time filling it and money on the amount of corn. Mine is like 8 years old.
I've heard the NON rechargeable lithium batteries hold their charge in below freezing temperatures and have a long shelf life. Higher cost.
They are so much higher, i am switching to the 12v, rechargeable battery packs, or the job smarts from TSC, never had a problem with them.
Any batteries will eventually corrode and start to diminish over time... Especially outside... NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH DURACELL....I remember 40 years ago All batteries sucked like a DUMOCRAT....
Nice, compared to some, the battery level indicates it has half battery life but will not take night photos. It's super odd.
i do not use duracell batteries because they leak and ruin you devices
Thanks for the input, I am not longer using either.
This is a temperature issue, it's colder at night. Alkaline batteries don't do very well at colder temperatures. Energizer "ultimate lithium" batteries do much better in freezing temperatures but are much more expensive.
Thanks for your input
I've had too many electronic devices ruined by that brand of batteries leaking. I'll never buy or use them again.
Thanks
I've had issues with Duracell for about a year now. My D cells are only lasting about 3 weeks of part time use, when under the same use conditions, they used to last 90 days to 6 months. I'm having better run times with the Energizers in my 2 Cell LED Maglite, but even the Energizer D cells don't run as long as before. Corporations are ripping us off right and left. They are claiming battery life that no longer exists, and it's a violation of anti trust laws, but no one in government on either side is protecting the citizens anymore... This extends to all batteries, not just the D cells. My remote batteries go dead in a few weeks too, when the AAA cells used to last for close to a year. I'm about ready to switch to rechargeable lithium Ion batters, since I already have a small charger for AAs / AAAs for my radio controlled tank.
Thanks for all the input!
Probably the cam. I only run lithium energizers and have had a few different brands of cams stop taking night pics. Bushnell, Browning, Exodus, they don’t last forever. Brownings are the worst though when it comes to malfunctioning,,,
It's been on multiple cams ranging from reconyx to wildgame innovations.
I have been a guide and hunt thousands of acres and have have had so many different types of cams over the years. I have never had a problem with Duracell. In fact, most all the probs I have had was when I didn’t use Duracells. Maybe it’s just me? I don’t care what I I buy as long as it works and I completely disagree with this take
Thanks for your input
It can be mounted to a helmet too! 🫡
Yeah it's veen pretty awesome so far.
Have the same issue with energizers all of a sudden
Thats pretty interesting, I have not seen it with the jobsmart (TSC brand) batteries yet.
That’s all I’ve ever used is Duracell. I don’t ever have any issues
I'm not sure why it's happening, but I have also read about it online from others. Look it up if you get bored. Glad your not having any issues as it's a real PITA.
Duracell are the only thing that I use in my 16 SD cameras. I use lithium in my 4 cell cameras. I have used Duracell exclusively in my cameras since 35 mm cameras were a thing.
what was the temp at night? Battery voltage starts to drop when temp gets down to 32deg.
@@JustAnotherDisappointedHuman I live up in NW Wisconsin and my cameras are out 365 days a year. It gets well below zero anywhere from a week straight to just a few days every winter.
They are expensive but when you have that many adjustments to make your bow perfectly level why would you put a cost on that and as for the knob coming loose why don’t you use light thread lock once you have it right where you want it
Many have suggested that. I am going to do that. Thanks for watching and your suggestion man!
So many easy ways to tighten them… you can simply twist them so it can’t come off…
probably true. but for me,,, if its almost 100 bucks i want it to work as is lol
@@colbynuthalloutdoors I will agree on that! They should have included some kind of locking or tightening clip... Costs less than a $1
I love the ATN LT 320 5x10!! amazing optic also love the 320 3x6 in the bad a$$ MossyOak Bottomland Camo! 💙💜 Clean images and super ez control panel.
Agreed. I own the equipment. For what it is and does , it’s not worth the price. I find myself taking it off when in my box blind cause I bang around with it.
Yeah, it's so expensive. I do like things about it, just not the price.
Just got my first Mathews, it’s fun that everything for my Lift is minimum $180 lol
Yes it is, it gets really expensive very quickly.
What I've found is that if you loosen up the bottom mount just to the point that it will move a skosh when you're putting the quiver bracket it, that it will position itself where it needs to be. From there, snug the bolts down and it should be easier to slip in and out.
Thanks
I also stripped the bar knob twice changed it for a hex head bolt
Thats a good alternative.
I paid 250 for each
Nice!
Thanks for sharing this with us sir, the three arrows helps me figure out the direction I want to go, I only use the quiver for getting in and out of the wood and or tree stand - saddle, so the one I have been using on my old bow, will more than likely be my go to quiver and save the money for camping fees for hunting and or whatever. I appreciate you taking the time to share this with us. If you do go with the X, you will love it,. I went from the Mathews Switchback Solo cam to the the new X, it was a huge difference for me, the bow you have is not nearly as old, so it may not feel like a huge change for you. Have a blessed weekend and keep up the fun videos sir. Dale
Thanks Dale!
They are still on the Mathews website for $389.99. You can put a light on the sight. It screws into the end of the sight housing mounting rod. Axcel sells them. It's a great sight. I have one on my Lift 29.5.
Thanks, when they were new they were a lot more. I did see where the light goes in now. Thanks
You must have a long draw length, because your arrows are really long. It doesnt bother you that your arrows hang past the bottom of your bow? I suggest you put your hood on your quiver higher so you dont dig your nocks in the dirt. Just a suggestion, if you dont have a problem with it, then more power to you, but i used to hatebit on my mathews, having to dog dirt out of my nock.
I will see if i can, i have a 29 3/4 DL. Ill look to adjust the quiver
$600??? They retail for $349. I have one on my and absolutely love it!
They were when they were new, cheaper now. I do love the sight as well!
@@TheOutdoorSource. if you say so, sir. I bought mine when the Lift came out. Pretty sure the sight came out then. $349.99 retail
I can’t justify the cost of that stabilizer. I like the lift, but I’ll get a cheaper stabilizer. Probably will get the lo pro quiver though. Thanks for the video!
@juliusjames5577 your welcome. Thanks for watching.
The light srews into the open hole on the right of the sight. You will see the fibers when you look n there
Thanks man!!!
One of the things that caught my attention was when you said you forgot your stabilizer when you went on a trip, so you picked up another one. My experiences have taught me that in a hunting scenario, the hunting length stabilizers do all of about nothing for balance or perceivable vibration reduction, or accuracy. Maybe you could do a review comparing shooting with and without the stabilizer, and see if you come to the same conclusion I have. I will say this though- when at the range, and shooting shot after shot, a stabilizer setup (front and rear) will prove to be helpful. In a hunting scenario though ... I haven't experienced the value of stabilizers. Curious what your thoughts are.
Will do, that's a great idea.
Titanium Archery Products makes a far superior product to Mathews' overpriced stabilizers. I'm sure there's many others.
Thanks, I'll check them out.
So $150 and poor quality...
I wouldn't say the quality is poor, just that the screw in piece to square up the dampner could be better.
Make a cinch loop with the loop that is there. That will hold it on the scs buttons.
Thanks, I will try that!
Jakt Gear sling a ling... you're welcome
Will take a look, thanks!!
I looked for this video a few days ago and did not see it, I am happy to see it uploaded today. Happy Thanksgiving. Dang screw needs lick tight maybe..? Well, I already ordered one, thanks for the heads up on the screws, I will see if locktite works, like you I dont need stuff falling out or vibrating loose. Have a blessed weekend. Dale
Thanks Dave, it would be super hard to take them off during travel, so that's the conundrum. Have a great weekend!
purple loctite. Was there a review or opinion, addressing whether it was worth the cost?
My opinion was to look at other options as well and see if it was "worth" the price for you. The whole setup will be around $800 with front, back, and the mount. Some people love it, i will definitely look into other options next time if I sell my phase 4 and go for the lift X. I am not hwre to make decisions for you, just to give you information, good and bad. The purple locktite is a good idea probably.
Thanks again for the video sir, Good luck this season , I hope it is successful for you. Dale
Thank you for watching! It has really been a grind so far. Hope yours is going better.
