You loved it but they stopped making it...
« on: June 08, 2017, 11:57:12 AM »
Pat McManus, the humor writer for Outdoor Life, once said if buy a piece of hunting equipment that you like you had better go buy 3 more because as soon as they find out it works they'll stop making it. I find that funny and spot on in some situations.

What equipment etc have you bought that you wished they still made exactly as it was originally?

All mesh hunting gloves. Great for using calls. I think cotton tends to muffle the sound. Thanks to Ebay I found some being sold due to an old sporting goods store in Wisconsin closing. I bought three pair!

Was really fond of the old advantage timber camo pattern. A lot of guns have skimped in quality compared to what they used to be. Don't get me started on diaphram calls that have been discontinued.

Whatever type of mask that I have.  I love it and have searched high and low for another!
