When i went to canada bear hunting i HAD to have one. The first night i think i got malaria and west nile in just a few short hours![8D]

Back back here ive never had any use for one, maybe in late spring turkey, but they are hardly ever that bad...

This runs a parallel to the self defense while bowhunting thread. Are all you big grown men THAT afraid of skeeters?

For one day I would just use skeeter spray.... It'll stink like hell but why waste the $30 bucks for one day?

Your not on my team this year, soNO you don't need one. SWAT AWAY!!!


I have had mine for over 2 years. I won't go out early season without it. I killed my doe last year with it operating. They did a complete circle around me before offering me a shot. They never knew I was there.

I'll take it off your hands if you don't want it after this weekend. You take paypal?

Are you scared of B-52 bombers?

Come to Minnesota!
