Title: I want to see your predator set-ups!
Post by: raydog on February 26, 2023, 07:30:02 PM: Just like the title says, I would like to see or hear what gear you guys are running. I'm new to predator hunting and would like to see what works for y'all. Packs, calls, guns, shooting sticks, you name it! Thanks
