Gift Guide

One of the greatest blessings that have been bestowed upon me are my three wonderful children. They are currently paying me so far forward that I may never realize how much better of a man I am because of them. But let’s face it, I’m human so I want some instant gratification. What better way for them to thank me for being their dad than with some wicked awesome hunting and outdoor gifts. It just so happens I have a few things in mind. So kids, if you’re reading this, don’t be shy when it comes to letting your dear old dad know how much you appreciate him!!! Continue Reading…

I absolutely hope everyone is doing well as we transition from Winter into Spring. I don’t intend to focus on the 800 lb gorilla in the room as there is already plenty going around on COVID-19. What I do want to bring up is some of the unique opportunities we have right now and also some of my writing outside of HuntingFit.com that you may enjoy. Continue Reading…

Gear Review: Sitka Ascent Series in Subalpine

September 3, 2018 — Leave a comment

The Ascent Series in Subalpine Works Great for a Variety of Destinations and Game. Photo Taken in Michigan.

It’s hot in Texas…but I didn’t let that stop me from hunting this summer. Being blessed to have year round opportunities to chase game I didn’t want to miss any chances I might get. With that, I needed something that I could wear to keep me concealed but also not cause me to melt into a puddle of sweaty mess. Talking with a Sitka representative he recommended giving the Ascent Series a shot. Continue Reading…

It’s Already Mid-Summer!

Summer is Meant for the Outdoors (photo courtesy of canoethewild.com).

Summertime is in full swing right now so I wanted to take a minute to hit on a few things before it’s too late. Just because there may not be any seasons open doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be working diligently right now on your goals. It really hit home for me last week when talking to a friend and he said he would be hunting antelope in 6 weeks. Not too long ago if a guy had to mail order any gear it may not even make it to him in time! Continue Reading…

Gear Review: Midland MXT115 Two Way Radio

June 28, 2018 — Leave a comment

Midlands MicroMobile Series of Two Way Radios are Perfect for Mobile Hunting Situations.

Other than for sustenance, what is likely one of the biggest reasons people hunt? I’m sure the list is arguable but I’m willing to bet that camaraderie will be pretty high on the list. Hunting brings people and families together all throughout the year to spend quality time together in the outdoors. With that, communication among party members is critical for success and often times safety or avoidance of spoiled meat. The Midland MXT115 MicroMobile Two-Way Radio is perfect for those types of situations. Continue Reading…

Gear Review: YETI Hopper Backflip, Camino Carryall, and Sidekick Dry

May 10, 2018 — Leave a comment

YETI Has a Perfect 1-2-3 Combo for Your Outdoor Adventures.

YETI created the high performance cooler market years ago and hasn’t settled for anything but the best ever since. You have all heard of them and can’t question their ability to keep things cold. I’ve trialed many YETI products and keep close tabs on other reviews and social media comments and have yet to see where they didn’t perform in the upper echelon of cooler performance. With that being said, I had the opportunity to test YETI’s latest offerings; Hopper Backflip 24, Camino Carryall 35, and Sidekick Dry. Continue Reading…

Gear Review: Danner Gila Boots in Sitka Optifade Subalpine

March 18, 2018 — Leave a comment

One of the Latest Offerings From Danner, Gila, Caters to the Mobile Hunter.

At the 2017 ATA show I stopped by the Danner Boots display to see what they had in the works. One of the boots I was drawn to was the Gila. I don’t know if it was because the boot simply looked solid, appeared as a lightweight hiking boot allowing for excellent mobility, or the recent addition of the Sitka Subalpine camo pattern. Either way, I wanted a pair. Unfortunately they weren’t available at the time but finally this past fall I was able to get my hands on a pair and boy was I glad I did! Continue Reading…

Gear Review: Thermacell MR450

January 3, 2018 — Leave a comment

Now may seem like an odd time for a gear review review on a bug repellent as I just finished up a trail run in 6 inches of snow and subzero windchill, but really now is a great time to be thinking about your Spring adventures. Look at it this way, you likely just received some gift cards or had to take back the pink bunny suit so you’ve got a little expendable income right now. Think forward a few months to when you’re turkey hunting, camping, or doing a little Spring fishing and how awful the mosquitoes will be. At that point it will be too late and you’ll have to just grin and bear it. Take advantage of some great technology and make your upcoming outdoors activities just a little more enjoyable. Thermacell has been expanding their lineup of mosquito repellers continuously since hitting the market several years ago. One of their most recent offerings is the MR450 which I had the pleasure of testing out this past summer. Continue Reading…
