Are they worth the extra money over something like an Igloo or Coleman? They are supposedly scent proof and have a longer ice life.
What do you mean by scent proof, speaking of wild animals that may smell food in a hunters camp or the Nark dogs that can smell out drugs in a deep freezer ?
Going hunting, get a line and pulley and haul all food up 20+ feet off the ground. Not in camp but a good away from camp.
Ice, haul in in a little red waggon as much as it will hold, dig a pit 4-6 feet deep and fill with as much hay or straw you can find. Ice should last up to a week or so, this is how we did it to keep ice on hand in the summer in the early 1900's.
Say Pilgrim, get your ducks in a row, learn to use a trenching tool to poop in the woods and learn the old ways.------Going after deer, a week ahead of time get out there and piss on the trees, the deer will come for the area as they need the salt.
Deer stands piss me off, this is not true hunting it is to my mind a cowards way to bring down pray. There the hunters stand with a cooler full of beer, food and all the comforts of home. Along comes a deer and they shot it.
The Hunters on the ground that track the deer, learn to read the signs and know were the deer are going and how to keep down wind or them are for my money the real hunters------
Hell Odin' at my age in a deer stand I can bag a deer, bear or your uncle Jo, this is not hunting to my mind this is assignation.
Mind you I am not saying you do the same, you may be a real hunter, but we have so many folks that do this and crow about what they bagged from up in the tree tops, pisses me off.
I send deepest apologies if I have offended you, not meant to but hunting's season is one its way and I feel all should be fare as if an animal is hunted and killed it should be eaten not discarded as garbage.
