I find Sail a good store for ammo pricing and selection, plus the new store is right around the corner from my house. but overall they don't have the best selection of hunting specific stuff. I find they cater more to the general outdoorsmen (ie kayaker, camper, hiker) than hunting. however this means for my camping and general outdoors stuff they have what I need.
I find it kind of funny that all the stores have the hunting and fishing stuff upstairs, and even have a separate hunting boot section upstairs separate from the normal footwear section. my guess is this is so they don't mix the hippy tree hugger outdoorsmen with the hunter/fishermen.
I am also trying to minimize what I carry into the woods with me. I have a basic set of stuff that I need, and some more stuff for the longer hike days and special circumstances, but I am really trying to get away from having a backpack with me during every hunt. I have in the past brought too much stuff, but those are bad habits to get in especially since I would like to do some more rugged back country type stuff in the future, and efficient gear selection is key to this.
Do not envy him.. its call living the dream. am only jealous :cool:
