RE: Equipment Failure?
We're getting a lot of votes for peep sights not working properly - are those mostly problems with tubing breaking or the peeps not turning properly?
I've had both issues, but never in the field. I did break a peep tube on my way to the stand before, but I keep a spare in my bag, and changed it on the spot. Funny how the cheapiest, simplestlittle piece of equipment on your entire setup can cost you.
Tony - I bet that was a prettyharrowing situation. Call me a chicken, but Ikeep myself tethered to my stand/tree at all times. There have been times that I was 100% sure that my stand had a good barkbite, only to put my weight on it, and have it drop right out and kick in again. Scary stuff when that happens 15-30 feet up.
