    I’ve been using Salomon 4D Quest GTX for a few years now, really good for stalking and quick drying. I get roughly 200 days of hunting out of them and lots of river crossings and climbing on all 4s,...

    Unless there is a huge jump in shot velvet price I havent heard of, I dont know how you could even justify an R22 shooting stags for velvet alone. Game management likely will never work in Nz. Too...
