Montie Gear Hunter’s Friend
The folks at Montie Gear carry a wide array of modern and handy troubleshooting devices for outdoorsmen, recreational shooters and hunters. One true standout gizmo that’s great for treestand hunters is its Hunter’s Friend. The Hunter’s Friend is like having a buddy sitting there in the treestand with you who never tires of holding your bow or rifle right in front of you for when a shot presents itself. Simply strap the Hunter’s Friend to the tree so that it comes over either shoulder. This places your firearm or bow right where it needs to be. The unit’s skeletonized design offers multiple places to hang other accouterments, too.
Quicklock Padlock
If you have a smartphone and a rifle case (or any other padlockable container), then you’ll want to get your mitts on a new Quicklock Padlock. SafeTech Products, the makers of The GunBox (thegunbox.com), has taken firearms security to the highest level of tacticool with its new electronic padlock. After initial pairing with your phone, the Quicklock Padlock unlocks via your smartphone’s Bluetooth signal or by the wave of an NFC fob or label. The easy-to-use Quicklock app (for iOS or Android) even keeps track
of who has opened your padlock and when. A simple wave or phone connection gives quick access to your gun to those of your choosing—and keeps out the rest.
Tenzing BinoHolster
While one of the most
critical pieces of gear for a hunter, binoculars can feel like having
an albatross around your neck.
Tenzing’s new TC BH15 Binocular
Holster keeps glass protected from the elements and secure to the user’s chest without the agonizing feelings of binocs dangling and pulling down on neck muscles. The
TC BH15 is a dream to wear, making use of ergonomic design and quality materials like breathable mesh on the shoulder straps, a soft Trico lining on the holster pocket and noise-dampening Hypalon-covered buckles. Two additional side pockets are perfect for storing calls and other items. Available in Realtree Xtra camouflage, the TC BH15 is designed to fit most roof prism binoculars.
Crossfire’s The Stealth Revolver Holster
For hitting the
range, trail or for everyday
carry, check out Crossfire’s The
Stealth Low-Profile Revolver
Series. The Stealth contours
to the hip and allows for a very comfortable
carry. It’s secure and fast into action, too, with
its user-adjustable, “spring-loaded thumb break” system. The Stealth is also ambidextrous and can be worn on the left or right side in traditional or cross-draw carry. The holster fits most revolver sizes and is shown here securing a 2-inch-barreled Taurus 617.
Purina PRO Plan Bars
No, not for you, but for your best friend you take along on waterfowl hunts! Purina Pro Plan SPORT PRiME and ReFUEL bars deliver fine-tuned nutrition that promotes strength and endurance. The Purina Pro Plan SPORT PRiME bar is formulated to deliver active ingredients, such as leucine, to promote protein building and absorption, as well as rapid digestion. If fed properly, your canine will use targeted nutrients from the bar before relying on their muscles.
If fed within 30 minutes of post-exercise, the Purina Pro Plan SPORT ReFUEL bar will reinvigorate tired muscles, stabilize blood sugar levels and optimize muscle rebuilding, to positively impact future performances and/or workouts.
Federal Premium 3rd Degree
Turkey hunters’ prayers for the “one shotshell” solution can get off their knees. Federal Premium’s revolutionary 3rd Degree uses a multi-shot, three-stage payload to deliver lethal patterns at any range. The leading section
of the 3rd Degree payload—20
percent of the total pellet count—
is made up of No. 6 nickel-plated
FLITESTOPPER lead. Because these pellets release from the wad
first and have a lethal cutting ring,
they disperse quickly and create a
larger effective pattern inside of 20
yards than standard loads. The next 40 percent of the load is copper-plated No. 5 lead shot, which creates a dense, even
pattern at moderate ranges. The final 40 percent of 3rd Degree’s payload consists of No. 7 HEAVYWEIGHT pellets. The tungsten-iron material’s high density gives the shot more energy than No. 5 lead shot at 40 yards and beyond. The upshot to all of those numbers and percentages is that hunters get a three-stage payload that creates optimal patterns for the entire range spectrum.
