- How environmental regulation and legislation will change the performance of rain gear.
- How technology is being used to improve the performance of natural down fibers.
- How to prioritize your budget to get the most for your money on high-end hunting clothing.
- Gear vs Capabilities, and knowing how to use gear to its fullest potential.
- Why you shouldn’t believe marketing, or John Barklow, and should test gear for yourself.
- Why asking for the “best” gear recommendation isn’t the most helpful question.
- Embracing what you don’t know and enjoying the process of learning.
- John’s tentless sleep system for archery season.
