    Where? Taxidermy Namibia vs. SA vs. ship to US

    Thanks Thanks for the tips! I’ll prob stick with Kings then. Sounds like they do good work. I’ll have to inquire about the 3D wall mount for the zebra and if they don’t do it then maybe see if another Namibia taxidermist does. Prob the only reason to change.

    Where? Taxidermy Namibia vs. SA vs. ship to US

    Thanks! Appreciate the help. I’ll prob just stick with Kings then unless another Namibia taxidermist does the 3D zebra mount.

    Ok then I’m not going to spend the additional coin at this point on a red dot. It’s 4x FFP with illuminated reticle. It’s interesting, so many folks say quad sticks. One guy was adamant about a tripod vs sticks. Quad to me at least seems sturdy for a newer shooter like myself. I haven’t...

    It’s not busy to me IMO. I’m shooting 8.6 blackout so I need more than the fire dot. Not looking to change my primary optic, I’m very happy with it, love it, has illuminated reticle. My rifle is lightweight already so the addt 9oz really doesn’t feel like much.

    No the red dot would be mounted on top of the scope. Not replaced and not swapping.

    I have felt like I need to put the money where it matters. So you’re right on not sweating the small stuff. One example, my optic is 4.5-18x52 leupold mark 4HD Trying to decide if I really need to invest in a red dot for short close up shots…thoughts?

    Yeah seems that some of the recos like barefoot style shoes are not a match for that. With the rocks, think then it needs to have ankle support? I don’t have the strongest ankles and don’t want to roll one! lol Was going to look at Jim Green footwear to see what they may have. Any brands you...

    had no idea Amazon was carrying Jim Green. gotta love that Amazon return! I'm always buying and returning so much easier than going INTO stores for items when you can just buy, decide, keep/return.

    yes, am in the market for new pants, solids and that's why I was going to look at Kuiu as I had heard good things. Thanks for the tip!

    Appreciate the brand recos on both the sticks and boots! Will research both. Are you saying not to invest in Kuiu? I’m mainly a waterfowl hunter so a lot of my hunting clothes have patterns and I had looked into Kuiu for snagging a few items. It will be August so I do believe the weather will...

    Thanks for the tips and on the boots! I’ll have to check them out as I’m a size 7 female and that converts to size 5 men’s. The cartridge wallet is not something I was familiar with before your and another’s recommendation, so I’ll look that up and snag one!
