I would say the best thing of this year was that HSS rope safety strap attachment. Man that thing is a breeze and quiet compared to the old buckles.
The next items is Cabelas MTO50 whitetail extreme parka and bibs. Super warm and quiet!!
Sock Liners, don't know how I lived without them.
The reel a strap for pulling up the bow gun etc. I hate messy pull ropes.
Primos Top Gun headlamp. Should of been called the mini sun!!
Under Armour a must.
Cabelas outfitter series snow camo. Great quality, windproof, waterproof and quiet.
Precision Dead Center muzzleloader bullets, love em!!
Irish Setter Gunflints. An overall good quality comfortable boot. It is my first non goretex boot but so far waterproof. Time will tell.
The Uglystick Gun Rest. I made a nice little gun rest specifically for the Lonewolf using a monopod gun rest and some Walmart hooks and a little ingenuity. She sits tight anywhere on the stand and sits perfect for those longer shots where a rest is a must. Works great!!
Goretex ball cap from Cabelas. Couldn't imagine hunting without a goretex hat, especially in rain. Nothing more miserable than when your hat leaks through. No more
Cabelas MTO50 Goretex rain suit. Great stuff!!
Nikon Riflehunter 550 rangefinder. It actually works when I want to range the middle of a field.
Seems stupid, but those little screw in drink holders. No more digging in my pack for my dew. Its right where I want it.
Gerber Gator Knife and guthook combo

Now I am going to flip this a bit, Worst item of the year.
Underarmour Liner gloves. Priced at $30 dollars they are warm for a light glove, but this is my second pair and stitching pulled apart after two hunts. Both pairs did this and I will not buy them again!!
Scott archery lil goose release. The release hangs up. It could just be my form etc, but it cost me bad!!
I bought a 25 round ruger 10/22 clip but can't remember the manufacturer. It is a clear magazine with a ram head on the sides of it. The thing is junk, doesn't even load into chamber. Do not buy!!

On the fence. The only item I am on the fence is Blackhorn 209. Not sure if it is a nay or yay yet. It shoots great, cleans out of the barrel great, but had a heck of a time with the breech plug area etc. My breech plug has actually turned black from it and it is almost like a carbon mat. I think clean up actually took longer than T7. The stuff is reliable though. I was using Hoppes #9. I did find out 1:1 Hydrochloric acid cleans the breech plug right up though.
