Title: $50 to spend at Cabelas!
Post by: deerbasshunter3 on January 04, 2016, 02:29:20 PM
What would you buy if you had a $50 gift card to Cabelas?

Looking for something turkey hunting related.

Open to any and every suggestion. Thanks!

ammo once they have a rebate or sale going on.

I don't buy much from Cabelas though, deal search on the internet for most things and anything call related sure isn't coming from a box store. the only things I can think of are gobbler lounger chair, ammo, maybe a piranta knife if you don't have one they are slick for any wild game, a facemask or little nick nack type things. Might also be able to find a good vest in the bargain cave either in store or online to put it toward I know I got a tac tater II there for like 75% off in the off season and just got it free off points years ago and that's a good vest. Decoys, they carry both DSD and Avian X now that I think of it $50 should be easy to spend depending what you need/want.

Look for a sale on something you need or want.
Then see if there are any coupon codes or free shipping.
If you wait a while, they should be having some "Turkey Hunting" sales.

The Gobbler Lounger if you don't already have one.

As mentioned already a gobbler lounger, use it towards a dsd decoy, or a couple boxes of Winchester longbeards.

Well, already have a lounger. Have two or three boxes of shells. The calls I use are not sold at Cabelas. Don't need another choke. I have one Avian X feeding hen decoy and a jake decoy. I just bought a vest and a fanny pack last year. I guess nick nacks are going to be the way to go?

Sell it for $45 and put it towards a SS box call or TSS.

If you've never tried Merino Wool....try it.
It's the greatest thing since sliced bread.
Heavy weight for cold
Light weight for cold

I have several pairs of these and LOVE them

Or have a look at the many others.
You will want at least 70% Merino Wool, preferably 80% is ideal. Up to about 90% max.
I don't like the 100% Merino Wool.....too much "stretch" out of shape. The other materials help them keep their correct form.

I was in your shoes and I ended up getting a havalon piranta. I wanted a small knife for the vest and this one fit the bill.

It says it includes 12 replacement blades. Is this along the lines of an outdoor box cutter? How sharp are the blades and how long do they last? Seems like a nifty little knife to have on hand.

Oh my no, it's like a surgical scalpel for the outdoorsman.  I'm half afraid of mine its scary sharp.   :lol:

I saw a nice lightweight packable rain jacket on display the other day at Cabela's. I believe it was called Space Rain.

Surgical is right, I can completely skin and debone two deer before I even worry about changing blades and you get them by the dozen so you always have the sharpest knife around. As far as I'm concerned they are an essential took

I have a pair of the space rain pants, they weight like 5oz and roll up the size of a can of soda. I like em for mornings there's heavy dew on the fields I wear em in through the wet field and pop them off and stuff them in the back of my vest. I have more durable rain gear if I'm hunting all day in the wet stuff
