Gear question

ks_wayward_son · October 24, 2009, 02:56 PM

Was wondering if any of you guys have used the Guide Gear camo/boots from Sportsman's Guide. ("Guide Gear" is the stuff exclusive to SG, from what I understand). I was thinking of getting a pair of boots from them but asking some opinions first. How would they stack up against similar items from Cabelas or Bass Pro?

Also, what about the Bushnell ARC 1000? Cabela's has been having a deal for quite some time pertaining to this model. The guys who did reviews on them generally seem to like it. Feel free to chime in on the bonus binocs or riflescope too, if you took part of that deal. Thanks everyone.

I have a similar pair. They are not comfortable nor durable.

I splurged on a pair of Danners and my feet are grateful.

i just bought a pair of 1000 gram Danner Pronghorns for $20.00 less than Cabela's at SG. Light, warm and comfortable - should work out well.
