Haven't purchased very much this year- saving for my elk hunt. That said- my favorite so far is my new Fox CC holster. I was very surprised by the quality for a reasonably priced holster. I can wear it all day and don't even really feel it.

Moved to kuiu this year, hunted hard so far in the heat and can't say enough about the attack pants and Ultra Merino tops. I can't wait for my elk hunt where I can really test out the layering system. Would love an Icon Pro by then too.

Very nice Dearhunter 3450!! My son has one of those and a Zeiss scope as well and he loves that thing. He's away at college in Texas now and I might have to sneak it out of the safe so it doesn't feel lonely and take it for a walk!! ;)

Mine would be the .280AI I am having put together on a Classic Model 70 Sporter. The stock will be pillar and glass bedded, a Douglas premium match barrel put on 1-9 twist, the trigger worked to perfection at 3 pounds, and the action trued and blue printed. Man am I excited!!

I purchased a Swarovski SLC 15X56 WB Bino. I can't wait.

My insurance company purchased a Buckstop Bumper for the Tundra and I added a warn Zeon winch.

There was a pretty big mix up and the company went to "great" lengths to make it right.
Can't say enough positive things about the folks at Buckstop.
And the truck looks incredible.

Favorite 2014 purchase would be the alaska caribou drop camp with my dad. For gear it would be my new Swarovski El 10x42, they were every penny.

My new 3 horse slant bumper pull. It's perfect for when I go solo or meet up with my hunting buddies. Plus I don't have to borrow my Wife & Kids high $ 33' lq trailer! I put a scrath on that one, I'd never hear the end of it.

I have bought a lot of stuff this year. Probably my favorite items are my KUIU clothes. I bought darn near the whole collection in Vias. I'm trying to convince my wife I need the Verde collection too;) I also love my Vortex Viper HD 10X50 Binos. Oh, and my new Savage .300 Win Mag. with the Vortex Viper 4-12X40. I have a GREAT wife!!!!! It also helps that she loves to hunt too!!

Bought a used 2004 pontoon boat with a 90 hp Merc on it. Loaded with full camper enclosure, fish finder, down riggers, rod holders, 2 live wells and only 150 hours on it. Lake Powell will get a few visits next year. Pontoon #1.jpgPontoon #2.jpgPontoon #3.jpg

Lots of new goodies this year for me, but my favorite has to be my Zeiss Victory HT 10X42's.
Way better than any other glass I have owned and should be the last pair I'll ever need to buy.
