WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY GEAR- JACK PYKE RANNOCK REVIEW
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 вер 2024
- Ive had to buy a new waterproof jacket after my last one letting me down so I've done a load of research and ended up buying the Jack Pyke Rannock waterproof jacket. Ive not had it long but upto now its been great. Does exactly what it says on the tin, Windproof, Waterproof and Breathable. Join me as we have a wander in the woods on a wet and weary day. What better weather to test a waterproof!!

I remember the old Snorkels. I used to wear one when biking to school. Problem was, when you turned your head to look around, all you saw was the inside of the hood.
HAHA so true, they really are dangerous when you think about it,
Nothing better than being outdoors. I remember as a lad back in the 70s, always out in the wood just south of preston, Cuerden Park, brilliant, we used to build bird boxes and go and hang them up all over the woods. Them were the days. We where there in our wellies middle of winter freezing are socks off, but having a great time. Wish I could get back sometime.
Ive been on Cuerden only today Ian photographing funghi, its a great space. Do you remember going to watch the Motorcross there back in the day?
@@simoneardley I most certainly do Simon.
Its great watching your videos, so glad you done a review on this jacket, i am thinking of buying one tomorrow! Keep up the great work!
Cheers Dave
Great review. Always helps when it's recommended. Putting it on my list.
Your dogs are adorable. Another very enjoyable video, thanks.
They are great dogs, all the best. Si 👍🏼👊
Jack Pyke Hunter is my best jacket .
Very enjoyable video Simon, nice jacket for price. Liked the way the dogs were watching you feasting. Take care and stay safe.
Oh yeh, they know when there's food around!!👍🏼😆😆
Nice review Simon, great jacket and at an affordable price for most! As you said in the review I've got the Jack Pyke top and bottoms which I've had for over 10 years and they are still going. A good product that does what it says on the tin. All the best R :-) 👍
Cheers Richard, yeh I'm sick of paying through the nose for gear that doesn't perform. If I get 10 years out of this I'll be well chuffed. The main danger in this game is barbed wire and bramble thorns though !!😆
i think its a brilliant jacket just what i wanted and it doesnt cost an arm or a leg thanks Simon
Youre welcome Paddy
Next jacket I will remember this one, nice to get a one recommended so thanks for that, keep us posted on its longevity!👍👌
Will do!
Good to see someone else with the Rannock, got myself the matching pants too, also got that DD Superlight Tarp, don't forget to check that flap on the back of the jacket, handy quick dry seat option, look forward to seeing your Macro lens coming out :-)
Cheers Carl, mine must be a different version as theres no flap but I'm well suited with it. Yeh hoping to get out with that lens real soon 👍🏼🍄🍁
Just bought the Jack Pyke Weardale trousers,best ones ive had (good gear).
You're a top bloke Simon 👍. If you can't out. Your vlogs help you chillout. Nice one 👍
Thanks Michael, all the best mate 👍🏼👊
Thanks Simon. When I asked about the jacket on your last video I didn't expect a full video review! Top man.
We aim to please Dave 👍🏼😆
Perfect! Just bought one!
Sure you wont be disappointed Nicholas
@@simoneardley It arrived today! Good thing too as it was a wet one! Great Jacket, appreciate the review👍🏻
Hi Simon, cheers for the review on the jacket as I’ve just bought one couple of weeks ago and I’ve not used it yet.
Good choice Mark 👍🏼👀
Another great video Simon looks like a good jacket. Used to love my parka I remember walking home in a snow storm once fully zipped up kept me warm and dry. Love these informal video chats you do good to see the dogs enjoying themselves. Take care
Aye, its a shame we dont seem to get snow storms any more in the North West. Happy days eh, all the best , Si 👍🏼👊
You probably dont give a damn but does someone know of a method to log back into an instagram account??
I stupidly forgot my account password. I love any help you can offer me
@Hayes Elisha instablaster :)
@Leo Antonio Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Leo Antonio It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my account!
I agree it's a great jacket , I wear it all year round , I love the fact that it's silent. Just one tip I would give is to push the flaps on the pocket inside the pocket as I think the velcro is brilliant but noisy if you need to open them in the hide ,great work 👍🏻
By the way the dogs are stunners !
Yeh thats the only problem with velcro, good shout 👍🏼 Cracking jacket though
Yeh, theyre a great breed👍🏼🐶
Just got the same Jacket now, well pleased with it,cheers Simon.
Good stuff Dennis, I think theyre a belting bit of kit for the money, enjoy mate!!👍🏼
Looks a great Jacket and a smart cammo. You in the Black woods there 👍. I bet the dogs loved a run around there. Nice one Si, cant beat chilling under the tarp with a mug of soup 🙂👍
Yeh you got it Rick. Its a belting woods aint it. Willow got snagged in some bloody barbed wire though and gashed her chest, hate the stuff. Yeh chuffed with the jacket, catch up soon 👍🏼👊
@@simoneardley nightmare, poor thing. Did you have to have a trip to the vets for stitches ?
Hi Simon, interesting re waterproof jacket, for the last 13 years I had used a Paramo Cascade the only reason I changed it had ripped on some barbed wire, Paramo would have repaired it but it has kept me dry for all those years so I splashed out on a new one and if it lasts another 13 years I will be 99 and still dry, it is perfect for bird watching as the fabric is ultra quiet. As always a good presentation
Tony
Cheers Tony but you need a new calculator to go with your jacket!!😆👀
Nice one, mate. The camo’s good, I could barely see you! 🤣
Who said that!!😆😆
Good video,
I use an ex army camouflage Gortex jacket. It is excellent in wet weather and keeps me very dry.
The only downside is there are no pockets, but it has an internal zip to allow access to clothing underneath...🎅👍👍
Eddiek. Me too. Much as I liked the quality of my Jack Pyke jacket, I was too warm in it. I now wear a British Army zip up camouflage shirt with two internal chest pockets and arm pockets, with a lightweight, British Army Gortex jacket over the top. The arm pockets are just right because I wear a Cotton Carrier G3 harness to carry my cameras. The new British Army kit is far better than the DPM stuff I was issued with.
@@petedraper5185 Sounds good, it's all quality gear..👍
Yeh, the modern ex army stuff is pretty good gear at decent prices too.👍🏼
Nice one mate, have a good day.
Thanks, you too!
I love your gear reviews Simon.
Thanks Phil, glad youre enjoying the channel 👍🏼👊
Very similar to mine i have the jack pyke hunter its that soft swedey type stuff realy quiet think its water proof to hasn't got the hood like yours but it has one built into the collar also has a bit at the back you can unzip so you can sit on. One thing id advise is get a bigger size than what you normaly where as mine feels a bit small but its still good cant complain about the price,good stuff. 👍
Definitely getting one
Just what I was looking for
All I could find before are the padded one's
Theyre a grand bit of kit Matteo👍🏼
May get one of those Simon... or drop hints for Xmas. I think I will give those Wellies a miss though at 150 quid a pop lol. I am still saving for a half decent camera!
Yeh, you wont be disappointed Martin👍🏼
Looks very smart on and sounds like a good jacket. Might have to invest in one. Av got the Jack pyke hunters jacket three in one in English Oak and a can honestly say its the best jacket av ever owned had eight years now and still in great condition
Yeh, I'm really suited with it Great value and a great camo pattern. I was in the woods yesterday watching Roe deer and they were clueless to my presence with that on. Works a treat and keeps you dry!!👍🏼👀
@@simoneardley aye Simon they certainly work a treat and great camo pattern very nice jacket. Definitely my next jacket like the Idea they are lightweight too.
Nice video, Like n.91 and Greetings from Italy :)
Thanks for visiting Peri 👍🏼🇮🇹
I need that camo when I stalk elk, you blended right in
Yeh its a pretty effective pattern Andrew👍🏼👀
Hi Simon just see this video pop up as I'm looking for a new waterproof jacket how has this jacket held up atvb Jimmy 😎😎👍👍
Its holding up just fine Jimmy, its a great jacket for the money. I like the fact that its quiet as well
@@simoneardley thanks Simon I got the jacket and trousers will be testing it out this weekend 😎😎👍👍
Great review yet again 👏
Thank you 🤗
Great review Simon, can you tell me what size you ordered as iam probably bout same size as yourself. Cheers and keep the brilliant footage coming.
Cheers Gregory, i bought an xl as they are smaller sized. 👍🏼
Thanks Simon, my XL arrived today and its just right. 👍
Hi Simon, really enjoyed your video, can you recommend a knife like the one you used to whittle the stakes?
Cheers Rich
Hi Richard, its a Mora knife. They are excellent and really keep an edge. Ive put a link in the video description for you👍🏼
Did you make your own Kuksa and spoon Simon?
For the floor I use a 7' x 4' piece of material that was the bottom of a tent.
Well, for £55 I think I'll be getting one of those jackets.
All the best from a fellow bushcrafter/photographer on the Isle of Wight :)
Yeh always a good shout having something down on the deck. Yeh I made them both, I'm partial to a bit of whittling when I'm sat out in the woods. Makes a nice change from having the camera out all the time👍🏼👊
@@simoneardley Simon...my Jacket has arrived. Been out in it a few times now, love it. BTW...£45 plus £3:95 delivery from Millets :D
Hi Simon, I love watching your vlogs and learning from them, I've recently acquired a local permission to a woodland and was wondering what size jacket it is that you review in this vlog as I am looking to get on for myself. I'm a 44" chest and was wondering if an XL would be good for me. Cheers, looking forward to your next vlog.
Thanks Lee, I'm a 40" chest and I have the XL. Theyre a small fitting so I'd probably go with the XXL to be on the safe side.
@@simoneardley thanks for taking the time to reply and thanks for the advice 👍
I do like it when you have a natter
Haha, cheers Derrick 👍🏼👊
What is the black mat at 12.45mins please?
Cracking :-)
Cheers
Where are your trousers from?
Hi Chris, theyre Fjallraven Vidda Pro's. Excellent trousers!!
Hi bud, I'm 6ft and about 14 stone will a size XL be sound? What size is yours bud?
I'd probably go xxl as theyre a small fitting👍
@@simoneardley legend!
What bag is that please
Its a Fjallraven Stubben
take photos and leave only foot prints when in the countryside
Not a bad saying is it!!👍🏼👊
if only more people adhered to that saying when they going out in the country side simon
