Did you say blisters?? laugh

Luckily this pic wasn't taken after a hunt, but I did nearly repeat the condition about 2 weeks later trying to help a buddy on a hunt. I will say this, these blisters lamed me up enough that it wouldn't have mattered what rifle I was carrying as I wasn't going too far too fast for awhile...


ever heard of duct tape?? a couple quick pieces when your foot developed a hot spot and that would never happen. duct tape is always in my pack. I recommend the gorilla brand, in a pinch even some petroleum jelly has saved me just long enough to get back to camp.
