Ghetto Gear


I used to like Kevin Sites. Really, I did. But that was before I read this page on his website.

For those that don’t know him, Kevin Sites is a video journalist-cum-lucky bastard who scored a gig with Yahoo News (yes, Yahoo) after a few years of freelancing in the Middle East for people like CNN. At Yahoo, Sites spent a year reporting from every war-zone in the world.

And since I’m hobbling around on broken cameras and bags that have been stitched up 4-times over, I was just bitter enough to share a similar post here. This should be pretty inspirational.

He succeeded in sticking 2 deer, a button buck and a 6 pointer. The turkey hunt was interrupted by a coyote one day and a bobcat the next. We were hunting about 100 acres of soybean and cornfields with mixed timber patches of burr and red oak, river birch and shag bark hickory. The corn and soybeans had not been harvested yet, usually by they are by the middle of Oct but due to late planting the fields were still up. The stands are wooden treestands built into the trees about 15 to 20 feet up. The stands are on...
