I wore my 6 or 8 inch ll Bean boots at Markover this past Sunday while pheasant hunting. The cover was very thick and in the second field we hunted I didn't see the stream that was running under the thick cover and stepped right in. And you guessed it, the water went way over my Bean boots. Had I worn my Muck boots, this would not have happened. In the future while hunting pheasants at Markover, I'll wear my Mucks. Oh, I agree with many of the previous comments, the Bean boots just don't provide sufficient ankle support and stability over rough terrain.
