I tried on some Vioz 1009, plenty of room in the toe box and the best heel cup over found yet. I will be getting some Vioz 1009 soon.
I actually didn't like the Schnees, too tight and rubbed my foot all wrong.

Originally posted by drthornton View PostWhat model of Schnee's? The Lowa's are great boots and I have no problem but the heel slip....I have heel regardless of what boot I have used. Vasque, Asolo, Kenetrek and Lowa. I am considering consulting a Podiatrist. I now think I have some sort of structural weirdness with my heel. If I mole skin and or duct tape I am fine but if the tape fails, like in NV last year, it gets pretty bad.

I have got to get my application in ASAP and have never done it before. I have read the NMGF several times and I can't figure out what I HAVE to fill out/apply for and what I don't have to fill out/apply for. I already have a CIN from when I purchased a landowner tag, but have never put in for the draw. Can anyone give me a simple explanation of what particular links/applications I need to complete my draw application? I thought NMGF only hit you for about a $20-$25 fee when you applied and then refunded part of it if you didn't draw. From what I am reading they hit you for the full $600 and then refund the $575-$580 if you don't draw (which one is correct?)

Wish I could help you on the application, the outfitter did it for me. I can tell you I was hit for around $850
