Awwesomesausomness. hahaha, good stuff man. Billy is one of a kind. PULL OUT PULL OUT!!!!!!

So funny guys. Especially the chicken saying curse words after the suggestion of KFC. 🍗 lol 😆

I don’t think I’ve seen a review of vortex viper 85mm spotter. If you’ve ever used one, how does it compare to the Athlon Cronus? Which would you pick?

Looking this up as I saw one second hand for about 160$, seller says it's been used for about 30 nights and was wondering if that was a good price as I don't see many down quilts on sale where I live. I've always used traditional mummy bags but have been looking to try some lighter down quilts to lighten my pack setup. I'm 180cm 80kg, any advice would be appreciated !

Did you find the lumbar pad on the K4 rides lower on your lower back with the crib attachment? I used the initial ascent last season and was able to pack 7 animals out with it and it rides very well and sits a bit higher on your back. I’m trying out the K4 currently and feel like it almost sags on me compared to the IA. It’s comfortable but just feels like it sits lower. Did you notice this in your testing ?

How was Celesteon in comparison? Were you able to test that?

I have the TN-553. What I don't like about it is that only about the first 2/3 of the zoom range is good, with a real decline in sharpness in the longest 1/3 of the zoom.

Do i have to worry about the press breaking and if it broke would it be a problem?

Great review, many thanks from Oz !

My club tried it out for indoor shoots, the 6 fall down, worked great for several matches(they made a thing out of pvc to reset by pulling a rope) we limited it to 22lr rn, each match each target was shot 100 times. by 10 matches,1000 shots 1/2" holes started being knocked out-of course in the center where everyone aims- so after that you had to aim at edges if you wanted it to knock down, by 15 matches the holes were 3-4" in the middle-useless , tried several things to repair but nope. So ended up costing about $30 a match (8-10 people) for the targets.

I'm looking for a stable standing height tripod for a anthlon Argos scope that isn't too expensive. I don't need ultra lightweight. Mostly for shooting range use and bird watching from the back porch. If it could be used for a dslr camera also would be cool. So you have any recommendations?

Any vids or plans to do a comparison on the entry level cheaper binos? Say sub $250? Im curious whats the best bang for the buck in that range?

I got the Exo K4 and I was surprised how narrow the frame was as said in the video. I've used external frame packs like Norrøna Recon 125l Synkroflex pack and Bergans Powerframe 130l, they are heavy packs but carries heavy weight pretty decent so I'm a little skeptical on how the Exo K4 will do when packing out animals

Agree with the blue mirror

All depends on what you can afford and what you can justify affording and if you are willing to buy used VS new. There is an old tried and true saying in binoculars that goes like this: "The best <$600 binoculars are a VERY gently used pair of $1k--$1300 pair of binoculars. I just scored a pair of literally same as new in box made for Cabela's by Meopta 10x40 Meopta Meostar HD B1.1 binoculars for <$600. There is absolutely no way on earth I will EVER find any of the other 10X models you profiled in this comparison for under $800 let alone under $600. I looked for TWO YEARS for a LNIB used pair of 10X SLC's best price I ever found that didn't end up being a scam )and there more than a few) was $800. In MY OPINION the Meostar B1.1's are well within 90% as good as any binocular made under $1500 and certainly not worth spending an additional $600-$700 for new or used only to gain at best 10% better optical performance, but that is MY opinion. I have spent several hours now just sitting by my local forest preserve lake viewing water fowl and deer at the last and first hours of daylight and I am absolutely astonished at just how good my Meostar B1.1 HD's are. Trust me when I say you can not beat a LNIB used pair of $1300 binoculars for 40-50% less money. Just something for the budget minded hunters out there like me.

I get terrible soft pics using my phoneskope adaptor on my swaro ATX85 even though by eye the scope is perfectly focused. I tap the screen to get the phone to focus right, i tried adjusting eye relief and using remote shutter, plus i’m on a solid tripod and video head. What am i missing? Do i need a different adaptor?

Thanks for the review, was gonna go vortex or Leupold but your review changed my mind.

Good year. Good job!

Looks great, Gabe!

Glad to see the tech has got to the point where even the cheap stuff is good. I recently bought a brand new compound bow for 125$! Its defijitely no Hoyt or Matthews, but it is LIGHTYEARS ahead of the last compound I owned, and it was a top of the line Martin in 2007! Same goes for fishing reels. You can get a REALLY nice reel for under 100$ these days. Good rods are still pricey, but the tech hasnt really reached a new plateau in a while..

Been using Ollin for a couple years now. In my opinion nothing even compares to it. Used magveiw as well a couple years back and it was good but nothing near Ollin.

Have you ever heard of the Kapture system?

So what would you choose out of the kowa 99 and the swarovski 95mm?

Great year, for sure! 2025, here we come!💪🥳

I like your method because you are always attached to the tree in case of an accident

Great year fellas. A lot of great animals hit the dirt and a lot of gear tested.

Great work

Love this Chanel

Would love a comparison between, conquest hdx and sfl

I switched from Exo to IA because Exo packs suffer from slippage under heavy loads (77lbs or so). IA has a better fit, allowing you to carry much more weight comfortably. Not to mention the noise that Exo packs make, which is unacceptable in my opinion. I choose IA also because of the full carbon fiber frame versus the Exo's rod system. It's true, the IA's side pocket system is worse than the Exo's, but I prefer that to a pack that suffers from slippage or makes noise, and believe me, IT MAKES NOISE.

how warm is this under a jetstream?

Gpo ,meopta ,vortex, element,,, what should i chose

They aren't worth the money in my opinion. The 85 quart is actually a 65. My RTIC says 65 on the side and it holds it interior. $400 for a cooler that isn't bear proof, doesn't lock, doesn't stay cold as long, handles are junk, drain plug can break off. The review is awesome, but the cooler sucks.

I have a mystery ranch Beartooth 80 and am thinking about buying a exo k4 pack I know you have tried both do you think it would be worth the money to buy the exo? Thanks

Thank you!

awesome it was thank u

wow i really enjoyed this review thank you

thank you

Not cheap but an ar500 plate drop is 1200 bucks so.....

I have a 3 pin version of this sight. With shooting in target shoots and also hunting, do you recommend aligning the middle pin or bottom pin? And do you know anywhere that does these tapes down to closer distances? Or do you have a way to manually marking the tape channel?

How much better is the hd vs uhd razor?

Just watched a review of 10 headtorches with corfort being a significant criteria. The 425 here would make the top, been using these for years now, not totally reliable but absolutely the most wearable, good for working in confined spaces and still great for trail running.

Have you looked through the 15x56 athlon? I never have but have seen great reviews. I didn't know if they are like that vortex kiabab 15x56 or better?

Might be ok pants for saddle hunting

I was looking for the Spartan but that price it is just insane.

Super usefull review! Thanks sir 🙏 (also I went for the DTI4)

Nice video. I like how you did it all!

Thanks for the video. Very helpful! I just got a SH Boonie with 3 horizontal pins. Like your scope in the video my scope only has one purple pointer. What is the point of having three pins but only one indicator?

The AAP is junk. In my opinion Baker Archery Products makes the best vices.

Your talking mic audio is only coming in the left channel mate. It was fine in your intro coming in L and R - just L when you were talking
