So, flipping thru my new BPS turkey season catalog, on page 69, I see that Muck has come out with a snake boot... $199 (*phew*)... Anybody got a pair & can comment on 'em? I've a 10 year old pair of Muck's, non-snake model, that's ... gettin' old...

After their whole HSUS support fiasco I decided I was through with them. There are plenty of other options out there HSUS support fiasco?

never buy another pair of Mucks...
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

Yep, they apologized and it seemed like an honest mistake on their part. Y'all can come to your own conclusions but I like their product. Just bought a new pair a couple months ago.

I guess y'all flat landers can turkey hunt in mucks. Ain't no way your going into hillbilly land after turkeys wearing mucks unless you got iron feet. I tried it once and had blisters for 2 weeks.

I bought a pair several months ago and just now actually started wearing them to break them in for the upcoming season. I love the look of them and all but the calf area of the boot is way too tight for me. It's almost unbearable and I won't be wearing them anymore.
So beware if you have muscular calves.

IMO, that was a mistake that a company that depends on outdoorsmen cannot make. They also handled the situation very poorly when the news hit. I had a pair of Mucks that I liked but that was the last pair I'll buy. I'm not going to give anyone associated with the antis a dime if I can help it. As I said before, there are too many options available that are of equal or better quality They clarified that the donation was to a local human society not the HSUS. Now, if y'all will excuse me I've got to go feed my pit bulls

Maybe they just don't fit the shape of my foot well but I've never understood the love of Mucks. Every pair I've ever had on was uncomfortable as hell.

Wow, didn't know this would turn into such a heated thread on here - ha! BUT, here's why I posted it; like 'em or not, I'm a fan of a rubber boot for turkey hunting, and LaCrosse has been my go-to for deer hunting... Every pair of "snake boots" I've ever tried have been GREAT in the beginning, & then the waterproofing wears off (both my high-$$ Chippewa's & Irish Setters did this)...
Has anyone tried the Lacrosse snake boots on here? If so, how did they work out for ya? That's the other option I personally am looking at, and they're even cheaper than the Muck's... I've had my Muck's 10 years & have never had a problem with them, btw, but ... Can't say that I've been extremely rough on 'em either...

I've come to the conclusion that your not going to find a boot that will last for very long anymore because they are all made oversea's. Even a lot of Danner's are imported now. Now if you wear them ever now and then, then they'll last a long time, but if you wear them turkey hunting, bow hunting,rabbit hunting, and doing habitat work, then they are going to take a beating. I've decided to buy a new set thats on sale about every 3-4 years.

it ain't hard to beat mucks quality, my last pair lasted 6 months.... x2 Maybe good for going from the golf cart to the shooting house. Climbing mtns and wading cutovers those things are pure junk. The top part of mine was torn to pieces half way thru their first season.

BGD I've been wearing the Lacrosse rubber snake boot for about 3 years. I've developed a small leak in one of them this bow season. They've been a good boot. I've put alot of miles on them in the hills and bottomlands.

They actually had a snake boot before called Woody Armor, stopped making them and now coming out with the cool version. I've got a pair of the previous ones I'm not a big fan off. They pretty much sit in my garage. The woody armor was never marketed as a "snake boot". It was only marketed as "puncture resistant" (think briars, sticks, etc). I almost bought a pair but didn't for that reason.

How on earth do yall get 4 years out of a pair of boots? Short answer: multiple pair of boots. I don't "wear out" just one pair - much to my wife's disappointment. Depending on the conditions & the area I hunt, I might wear one pair of boots over another.

How on earth do yall get 4 years out of a pair of boots? x2 Brent. I just plan on wearing a pair out every 2 years. Knock on wood I'm on the third year with my boas. But I don't look for them to last till next season.

How on earth do yall get 4 years out of a pair of boots? I usually only get about 2 years before they go to leaking, and by the 3rd year the bottoms are coming off.
