I think it's fair to say that my favorite new piece of gear from First Light this year is the Navigator hoodie.

It was built and tested where plans fall apart and the weather doesn't ask permission.

And it's one hell of a good opportunity for a lot of us to slide right back into our old habits that will stick with us all deer season. So let's make a pact not to do that. And to help us get that right. I'm going to explain some of these big
