As promised, here are more new things I've added to my "LIKES" list.

Hunters Safety Systems has an all new buckle design on their life-saving fall restraint safety vests. The new metal buckles are smaller and quieter yet strong and easy to open and close. Hunters Safety Systems has revolutionized hunting from treestands. They are constantly working on ways to improve the safety and comfort of hunters when elevated. Watch for the new Lady Pro series harness coming out soon.

Another really slick new item that is a really handy tool this time of the year is the Porta-Aim by Vanguard USA. This compact shooting rest quickly adjusts to the perfect height, the padded cup swivels 360 degrees and the unique gripper base sits securely on most any surface. The Port-Aim folds down to nearly nothing and weighs less than 2-pounds, which means it'll be traveling in my backpack a lot this season.

"Whisper, A Holiday Story", is a children's book with a grownup message that I recently received from the author, D.A. Gunderson. Gunderson (Gundy) is the mouth of The Big Wild syndicated radio program in Madison, Wisconsin. Gundy has over 30 years of professional communications experience. He sure put his storytelling skills to work when he wrote Whisper. I recommend this little book for Christmas reading to kids everywhere.

I'll be adding more items to my "LIKES" list regularly.
