I have known Jerry Goff the owner and inventor of the Hickory Creek, Mini Inline Vertical Crossbow for a number of years now. Jerry had a very unique vision when he designed the Mini Inline Vertical Crossbow. Over time, he was not only able to bring his vision to fruition, he was able to perfect the design to what you see today. It is safe to say that you will not find another crossbow like this on the market. This is such a simple design and it makes you wonder why somebody did not come up with it sooner. The Mini inline Vertical Crossbow is extremely light and well balanced allowing you to operate with ease. The size and design allow you to maneuver freely and efficiently weather you are on a spot and stalk or hunting from your treestand. This crossbow is completely adjustable and once you shoot this crossbow, you will not want to put it down.
It is fully equipped with comfortable pistol grips and shoulder stock. The Mini Inline Vertical Crossbow has a 150lb adjustable draw weight. Split limbs, 13” Power Stroke, 325fps. It is very easy to cock & uncock this crossbow. You do not even need pull straps. You can effortlessly pull it back by hand. The Mini is equipped with a removable stock for easy transport. It will fit right in your backpack.
I feel very comfortable hunting with the Hickory Creek Mini Inline Vertical Crossbow knowing that it can take down any type of game in North America.

This season I wanted to upgrade my hunting gear and after looking at many brands, Sitka checked the boxes for all of my needs for hunting clothes. I started out with the Core Base layer because everything starts with a solid base layer. For early season the Sitka Base layer system provides both moisture management and temperature control for comfort. It is light weight & extremely comfortable. It provides a low level of warmth but it provides extensive odor control and breathability.
MSRP: $129.00
Next, the I bought the Ambient Hoodie that provides the right amount of insulation, warmth, breathability as well as very adaptability. It is perfect for the early season with the chilly mornings and the unpredictable weather in the afternoon and evenings. It is also ideal as an added layer in late season for extra warmth. It is constructed with ripstop nylon and is extremely durable. The hoodie is designed so it will not obstruct your peripheral vision. This half-zip pull over is designed for comfort and easy layering. The water repellent finish keeps you comfortable when you are on the move in misty, drizzly days out in the field.

The Equinox Guard Pants surprised me. These hunting pants are made to help prevent contact with insects. They are made with bite-reduction fabric and built-in insect shield protection that will help to repel mosquitos, ticks chiggers and the like. For those who hunt in the early season, you know how insects can ruin a hunt. The Equinox are made for comfort and moisture control for those hot and humid days in the field. They are light weight but they allow air flow. They feature zippered leg vents that promotes air flow when you are on the move and zips up easily for extra protection from the elements. Most importantly, the built-on leg gaiters help to protect against ticks and chiggers. Just tuck them into your sox. There are plenty of zipped pockets as well.
