Mathews V3X 29 & V3X 33 Compounds. Mathews new-for-2022 flagship hunting compound is the V3X (starting at $1,199), offering several exciting innovations centered on truly custom-fit accessories. This exciting new bow, available in 29- or 33-inch axle-to-axle lengths, is equipped with new Bridge-Lock Sight Technology to enhance balance, and patent-pending Stay Afield System (S.A.S) to keep hunters in the field. It’s also built compatible with a completely redesigned line of LowPro Quivers. The V3X 29 has a 6-inch brace height and accommodates draw lengths from 25.5 to 30 inches. The V3X 33 (shown above) has a 6.5-inch brace height with draw lengths ranging from 27 to 31.5 inches. Bridge-Lock Sight Technology allows a dovetail sight to be mounted through the bow’s riser, eliminating the need for an external mounting bracket, for a streamlined profile, improved balance and reduced felt vibration. Several popular brands (including Axcel, Spot Hogg and HHA) fit the dovetail cutout, and Mathews partnered with Axcel to create the BL Fixed 5-pin Sight that allows archers to micro-adjust elevation, windage and each individual .019-inch pin. Mathews is also offering a new solid finish option: Granite (shown above), one of eight solid and camo options.
ALPS OutdoorZ Impulse Pack. This ultra-quiet hunting pack won’t betray your presence when your next trophy is closing in. Featuring a fleece exterior and a suede fabric interior, the full-featured Impulse from ALPS OutdoorZ ($199.99) will keep your movements quiet when reaching for your favorite deer call or adding that extra layer on a crisp fall day. The liner is ALPS’ new Deadquiet fabric; it features outer fleece with a polyester backing and incorporates a membrane between the two fabrics to help keep out moisture. The zipper-less main compartment allows you to access items quietly and easily; a series of magnets and an aluminum hook secures the top lid when needed. Ideal for ground blinds or treestands, the flat-bottom structure allows the pack to stand up independently. Included are an ambidextrous quiver holder, two deep side pockets, a drop-down pocket to carry your gun or bow, a two-piece adjustable waist belt with pockets, and a hydration pocket with two side ports.
Pnuma Palisade Puffy Jacket. Here’s a gift they can use right now to ward off winter’s chill on stand, glassing above treeline, or anywhere the next adventure takes them, courtesy of its PrimaLoft Gold Insulation Down Blend. In addition to being lightweight and packable, the Palisade Puffy Jacket ($300) features a durable and water-repellent outer shell, and it’s also quick drying, so you’ll stay warm and dry longer than a regular down jacket could. With YKK Aquaguard zippers, your essential gear is protected from the weather as well. When it’s time to shed a layer, the Palisade has a stuff sack included to compress it down so it will easily fit in your pack.

The structured nylon sheath features a divider to store extra blades and houses a blade storage box to pack out all three blades once the job is complete.
Rocky Mountain Hunting Calls Cartridge Call 3-Pack. It happens all the time: You’re sitting in the field, not predator hunting, and suddenly a coyote or bobcat comes slinking by out of range of your bow or gun. You try mouth-squeaking the critter into your kill box, but it just doesn’t do the trick. If only you had a predator call in your pocket! The Cartridge Call 3-Pack ($27.95) is the solution. These mouth calls, sized to match three popular predator hunting cartridges (.223 Rem., .22-250 Rem., and .243 Win.), are easy to keep handy on any hunt. You can even attach them to your keychain with a key ring … so unless you lock your keys in your truck, you’ll always have a call handy to collect some bonus fur.
Montana Decoy Song Dog Coyote Decoy. As deer seasons wind down, it’s time to start thinking about calling coyotes. Add realism to your setup with the Song Dog Coyote Decoy ($59.99).

The Trijicon Huron (starting at $650) is available in four different models including 2.5-10×40, and comes with the high-quality glass, proven precision, and rugged construction you need for bragging rights every season, along with a price that lets you invest heavily in your other hunting gear.

Burris Oracle X Crossbow Scope. The Burris Oracle X ($1,079) makes it easier than ever to aim and shoot your crossbow at all distances. The Oracle X doubles as a laser rangefinder, complete with angle compensation and a digital reticle.
