    How bad are the Turkey mites this year? When I’ve hunted KY in the early season before a freeze, I got eaten alive!

    @Wes I haven't had any run ins this season yet. It's been cooler than usual though for this time of year.

    Does your pack get in the way up high like they? I usually run mine down the tag end of my hys strap so it’s more hip or knee level.

    @Zachary it hasn't been an issue yet, but I've considered moving it lower just to prevent it from ever being an issue.

    @Derek I’ve also found if you put the tag end on the opposite side of your bow holder and hang your bag on the tag end it makes the strap a lot more tight on the other side of the tree so your bow doesn’t make the strap sag.

    @Zachary good tip!
