Bowhunting Gear Used in the Field
Take a look at the specific bowhunting gear, packs, optics, clothing and footwear we use every day in the field while creating your hunting videos. This is the gear that we trust to call in the elk, get close to the deer, and become a better big game hunter.
With links to product websites and specific product picks we bring you the gear we use to ensure our hunting success!
Team Outback Outdoors Backpacks
- Trev’s Pack
- Ryan’s Pack
- Being a Western hunter and a professional guide I often trust my life as well as my comfort to my gear. If I had to pick six essential items that are with me on every hunt regardless of the season they would be:
-
- Under Armour Base Layers www.underarmour.com
- Under Armour Arctic Beanie www.underarmour.com
- Kenetrek Mountain Extreme Boots www.kenetrek.com
- Browning Down Vest www.browning.com
- Browning Dry Lite Raingear www.browning.com
- Browning Knives & Flashlights www.browning.com
- Adam’s Pack – When it comes to gear, I prefer to be more of a simplistic hunter/outdoorsman than have every gadget and new product available. But the basics I carry in my pack are all of the best quality I can afford and serve a vital function. Either to find the game (quality optics), get to the game (quality boots), stay in the hunt (quality and layered clothing), the ability to harvest the game (hunting strategies, physical, and mental preparedness), and ability to make the shot (quality bow and knowing my limitations), the having everything I need to survive if the mountain throws a curve ball (fire, 1st aid, and map/compass).
- A Leatherman multipurpose tool. www.leatherman.com
- A knife, Wyoming Saw, and sharpener. www.wyomingknife.com
- Tools to build a fire, lighter, water proof matches, candle, fire sticks
- First Aid kit
- I love my Kenetrek boots, I have 3 pairs, one for each season. www.kenetrek.com
- USGS Quadrangle of the area I am hunting, with public/private outlined on map from BLM maps
- Good compass
- Light rope
- Jim’s Pack
- When the rut kicks in and I am after a mature deer or elk I have faith in my scents from Border Crossing to lure the wary animals my direction. www.Bordercrossingscents.com
- I can not get anywhere that I hunt unless I am wearing quality footwear. For me the Mountain Extreme from Kenetrek boots keeps me blister free. www.Kenetrek.com
- I am a firm believer in a good base layer to help wick moisture as well as suppress scent and Medalist gear works very well. www.Medalist.com
- I have become a more accurate archer because of my Bohning products guiding my arrow to its mark. www.Bohning.com
- In cold weather the Heater Body Suit enables me to stay longer on stand which increases my odds in the field. www.Heaterbodysuit.com
