    New Boot ideas

    I've tried many different brands but about 10 years ago I settled on Kenetrek boots, with which I've had great luck. Mountain Extremes were my first pair and I still use them today. Just clean 'em up and re wax with Kenetrek's wax. Have never had any leaks whatsoever and can't beat their soles...

    Thoughts on Craig Boddington?

    Ditto on Red Leg's post. I served 31 proud active duty years in the Corps from 1971-2002. None of the posts on here regarding the adaptation of Field Grade Officer uniforms or CB (who I know and have served with) are worth the time it takes to read them. Such nonsense! REP Brigadier General...

    A great watch! Have owned same model since somewhere around 2016. It's been on several hunts (to include Africa) and has worked flawlessly since I've owned it (fingers crossed). REP

    Beirut ‘83

    Lost several good friends in this murderous, heinous act. Last I saw them was when I was rotating out of Beirut a couple months prior. God Rest their Souls Please! Good to see that 40+ years later we're finally calling in the debt of a couple of the masterminds behind it. Never forget! S/F REP

    Leopard Hunting Accident Involving Craig Boddington's Daughter

    I have known Craig Boddington for over 2 decades, having served with him on active duty and socially since. He is a "stand up" gentleman whose words and actions have always been honorable and trustworthy.... in garrison, on the battlefield or socially. I find it disheartening to read some of...

    Deepest condolences ...

    After serving in the Corps for 31 years and retired for 21 years, it still hurts every time I read of a service member lost. I grieve for every lost brother and sister but even more for their loved ones left behind. Semper Fidelis.

    Have used Federal Power Shok 375H&H 300 grain SP on several hunts over last few years. Have managed to take every animal cleanly with it.....Bison, Cape Buffalo and Plains game included.

    Federal Power Shok 270 gr .375.. Reviews Please

    I used Federal Power Shok 300 gr. in my .375H&H two years ago in South Africa. Took Cape Buffalo and Plains Game. One shot on each animal with no issues whatsoever. Longest shot was approx. 100 yards. Have also used it on Elk (30.06) here in U.S. with no issues. Accurate and reliable IMO.
