Jordan and Janis answer listener submitted questions. But first, an organizational gear hack Jordan stumbled upon while in the city and Janis’ continued lion hunting fails. They give their take on the best gun if you can only have one; clothing options for hike-and-sit whitetail hunting versus slow tracking-style whitetail hunting, which also translates to mountain hunting; rangefinding binoculars vs binos and a rangefinder; white gas vs canister stoves; the weight of their hunting packs; and what gear to buy that will actually save weight in your pack.
