so many variables
we all hunt different circumstances with different needs,
a hunter that hikes all day for miles will have different needs than someone sitting in a treestand all day 100 yds from his car.
and hunter with limited budget is shopping differently than someone with deep pockets
up here seasons vary , should one go get a versatile all season jacket that comes with layers, and all the doodads for $200-$300?
or buy a seperate $50-$100 jacket for each season/condition?
i am all for keeping it simple,
at the same time dont fault someone for preparing himself with every advantage he could afford
why buy a $1000 scope over a $100 scope?
really need to go online and chart the trajectory of your scope/rifle/cartidge?
i wear both $50 walmart budget boots and have had $200 boots,
both serve a purpose
