Best of all their customer service is outstanding.
  • Kuiu – I have been using Kuiu around the world in all kinds of conditions, be it Spring Coastal Brown Bear in Alaska, Marco Polo in Nov in Kyrygyzstan, Cape Buffalo in Africa or Elk in Idaho. Their gear works and lets you hunt as hard and as long as you want.  Visit Kuiu
  • Radical Archery Designs – If you are a bow hunter and prefer fixed blade broadheads, make sure to check out these 100% Made in the USA broadheads. I have been using them for the last 4 years and the last 3 bulls I have shot with them haven’t gone further than 60 yards after the shot.  Visit RAD Here 
  • Vortex Optics – I just got done doing a side by side comparison of the new Vortex Razor HDs along and Swarovski Els, and I have to tell you I was blown away, as I could barely tell the difference between them, other than the Swarovski’s had slightly better low light performance. So if you don’t have the budget for Swarovkis, give Vortex a try I think you will be pleasantly surprised.  Vortex Optics
