0:50.1

to be here before we know it. And my favorite piece of turkey gear last season was the

0:53.9

mealyagoras turkey vest from XOP. It's got tons of storage for all my calls, extra shells, decoy stakes, and even a bird bag pouch to stuff a long weird end for easy carrying back to the truck. On top of that, I know you all had some gear that didn't work quite as well as you would have liked this last ball, so go check out some of the stands, sticks, and harnesses that they've got as well. You know my picks are the retrograde stand, the X2 sticks, and the super minimalist holiday harness. Go build your kit today at XOP outdoors.com. If you've listened to this show for a while, you know that if there's one tool I absolutely cannot live without, it's the Onex Hunt app. I use Onex year-round to mark spots, find new properties, access landowner information, and so much more. But throughout the year, I tend to use the app differently depending on what I'm doing. Right now, I'm always using it to double-check stream bank easements in the drift list. And when I'm not doing that, I'm using the slope angle layer to look for pinch points or little knobs that a buck might be betting on. And of course, when I'm in the field scouting, the tracker feature is running at all times to paint a picture of how things move throughout a property. To learn more about all the other features that onex offers, head over to onexmaps.com. We all know there's nothing worse than being cold and wet while you're trying to

pursue your favorite game.

2:03.8

That's why I trust Huntworth with all my hunting outerware needs.

2:07.5

This past fall was the warmest and driest I've ever been throughout an entire hunting season,

2:11.6

and that's all thanks to Huntworth's heat boost technology and the DWR waterproof finish

on their clothing.

2:18.4

I've been wearing the Durham lightweight pants almost every time I hit the field, whether I'm chasing white tails, bust and

2:22.7

brush for pheasins, or doing some postseason scouting. And you'd better believe that these things

2:26.9

will be my go-to for turkey season as well, thanks to the waterproof seat and knee panels paired

2:31.7

with the lightweight, breathable body. I'll probably rock the

2:34.4

grayling hoodie for the early season and eventually transition to the Fallon lightweight shirt

when the hot late season starts. And all that's going to be in their tarnin pattern, which I
