    RTIC Coolers

    Soft side 20 Received my soft side 20. Well built and very good performance to date. I think RTIC will drive down the Yeti pricing. At the lake even those with Yeti's have bought an RTIC cooler and the comments seem to be "it's every bit as good as the Yeti at half the price"! Won't take them...

    Is a stock Sport ok for Overlanding??

    Stock Wrangler VERY Capable! I have several Wranglers including Rubicon's and Sahara and the Sport is also very capable. When you get stupid it doesn't matter what you drive you can bury it!

    What is your favorite belt?

    Duluth double layer and filson The Duluth double layer is a great belt and easily supports either an IWB or OWB holster providing great support. When I don't need the extra thickness to support the weight I go to a Filson single layer belt. Both last a long time and are worth the cost.

    Any bird hunters?

    Check the area you usually hunt before heading to KS! We are going to be skinny on birds again this year, drought last year, very little CRP as everyone planted corn, long cold snowy winter, and then a wet spring during nesting. Unless you buy the hype from our tourist folks this would be year...
