Xmas Present Last Minute Ideas?

Postby WapitiTalk1 » 12 13, 2022 •  [Post 1]

I’m not gonna list them all, but please use our forum sponsors for any “hard to buy for” folks on your shopping lists. I’m very particular on who I partner up with as WT sponsors; they are all great outdoor product outfits with top barrel customer service. I know I’d be tickled pink if I received a pack-a-pull, or a product from Talarik, Swagger, Alaska Guide, Bow Spider, Lite Outdoors, or VIAM Outdoors, Heads Up Decoys, etc. 8-). They do pay the light bill here on our humble hunting camp fire ;)

Yep, lots more good sponsors as well!

Don't forget a Clip-Shot for a stocking stuffer.


On an unrelated note, I see there are blankets that look exactly like a flour tortilla for sale this year. So it looks like a person in a burrito. Wow. just wow.

I totally agree. I don't need anything now, but I have been thinking about a good sleeping bag. If you want to put me on your Christmas present list, I would appreciate a light, warm and comfortable bag. Remember price is not the object so don't go cheap. :D

Just to give you guys some ideas. I wouldnt be disappointed to find one of these under my christmas tree. https://www.bighornarmory.com/product/model-90-460-sw/ Especially if you could convince them to do a real custom job with a faster twist rate and threaded 11/16×24. Probably a little late for this year, so think christmas 2023. Gives you lots of time to put some money away. You can all chip in, thats okay. Since its too late for the rifle, a set of tracks for my new yamahq will suffice for this year.

You get a hunt plan, and you get a hunt plan, and you get a hunt plan... everyone gets a hunt plan! Except Swede, he doesn't need one.
I hunt therefore I am. I fish therefore I lie.

Hey, check it out! Swede had his bull back from the guy down the road who does game heads in his spare time. Came out nice.

I sure enough got a 5X5 this year. Blizzard, my travel pillow really likes that head mount.

Blizzard loves meeting kids and sharing with them in church. He has his pillow pals that he jumps on the bed with, but his main ambition is to share Christ with youngsters.

They make great stocking stuffers :lol: They make life so much easier and they really are inexpensive.

My suggestion: Purchase extra rope.

I guess I need to look up the packapull. I can only guess at what it is.
