I have one item to add. Its the specialty archery super ball peeps. They come in a kit so you can change the size of peep to fit your sight or light condition. Its a great little product that I have on all my bows.

I purchased the Lone Wolf Alpha Assualt with 4 sticks this year and they are just awesome. This system gets you in trees with out having to remove branches while you are going up the tree like you have to do with a climber. It is also extremely light which is great if you have any long walks to your site. I have some sticks set up in a couple of areas and in those trees I leave the "strap hook" in the tree and just climb my sticks and hang the Alpha Assualt form the hook and strap the lower part of the stand to the tree and settle in. Great system for sure! I just wish I had bought this before waisting a bunch of money on 3 different climbers and 3 or 4 Gorrilla stands, I would have saved money in the long run.

I bought a DeLorme PN-20 GPS. I really like it soo far and I think I got a good deal($199). It came with free topo software and limited downloads. I can get aerial photos downloaded that look like satallite photos. It also came with a 2gig sd card. The color screen is prettty bright. I would recomend this to someone looking to get a gps.

This year was an update of my Safety Harness. I had been wearing one of the HSS double buckle harness. The one of course before they coated the buckles for silent wear. It was like wearing a refrigerator..... I shopped around, swearing not to buy one unless I wore it first, and it felt right. A trip to Woodbury Outfitters in Coshocton made my choice. The Scentblocker Tree Spyder is what I purchased. Tried it on and fell in Love. Original price of $149.00....on sale $99.00. Wow, what a differance. Its like you are not even wearing one. Light weight, very comfortable, no tangle...What more can I say. Nothing else even came close to comparing in comfort. Seeker BP

I switched to the same tree spider harness this year. That thing is so mu h lighter. Though I have found that the back of it creates a hotspot while hiking in. It's still more comfortable than the HSS lead vest.
