I have been trying to figure out how to get the needed equipment for my first year of backpack bowhunting on a budget. I had it narrowed down to spending about $200 on a new bag, my old one weighs a ton, and a new tent. I had planned on splitting the $200 down the middle but after seeing the sale on this Big Agnes down filled Storm King 0* bag I decided to change my strategy. I got the bag for $145 but didn't have much time to check reviews on it or go find one to check out in person. I figured at that price I couldn't go wrong. Any of you have this bag? What do you think about it?
Now that I have spent 3/4 of my budget allotted for tent/bag I need a good light tent for $50 or less. I figured all I really need is a light tent that will keep me and some gear dry and I figured since a $50 tent doesn't keep you much warmer than a $350 tent I should make sure I had a good bag. Any ideas on a light weight tent that I can get for $50 or less that is actually water tight and will last at least 1 or two seasons?
