They have designed many products for the Western Hunter.  See below for these exclusive products.

 

Sleeping System- There are hundreds of sleeping bags on the market that on any given day may be the perfect bag for that specific set of circumstances. The Western Hunter Sleeping System is designed to handle all four seasons regardless of the conditions that mother nature may throw at you. No matter where or when you’re going hunting, the Western Hunter Sleeping System will keep you warm and dry.

 

Backpack-The key to the Outdoorsmans Pack System is the frame. The curvature allows the pack to ride as close to your center of gravity as possible, giving you the stability of an internal frame, but the carrying capacity of the external frame. The carbon fiber reinforced polypropylene frame is rigid enough in the vertical plane to handle a 200 lb. load, yet is flexible enough to twist with your body while climbing or twisting through brush.  The bag itself is attached at eight different points with easily inserted buckles. The bag covers a meat carrying system that is tucked neatly against the frame so you can convert your hunting pack into a meat packer in less than two minutes.  We call the current bag the “optics hunters pack” because it is perfect for someone who is carrying a tripod, spotting scope, or large binoculars.

 

• The frame weighs just 2 lbs and the complete pack weighs 7 lbs 3 3/4 oz with 4600 cubic inches of storage.
• Notice the dozens of attaching points for the suspension system; we have set this pack up for sportsmen from 5’2″ all the way up to 6’10″.
• Underneath each pack bag is a load carrying system that is part
  of the frame. This is ideal for meat packing or caching food and water for those long hunts.
• The V notch rifle rest in the top of the frame allows for a solid rest while shooting from the sitting position due to the solid base of the frame/pack system.
• The rifle carrying system is built right into every pack and securely
  holds any size rifle, bow, or muzzleloader.
• The Outdoorsmans Pack System shoulder straps and hip belt are large enough to properly distribute the weight of even the heaviest loads.

Tripods- The Outdoorsmans are experts at mounting optics to tripods.  The Outdoorsmans Tripod is the only tripod in the world designed specifically for hunting. Durable, steady and lightweight, this tripod is truly one of a kind and irreplaceable in the field. There are three models available and each tripod comes with a single length center post, but extension center posts are available for each size along with multiple head options, allowing you to build the perfect custom tripod or your hunting style.

 

Turret System-A custom turret is not an original concept; there are companies that build them for a variety of different scopes.  However, the Outdoorsmans Ballistic Turret is the only one that combines the industry-leading optical qualities of a Swarovski riflescope with the precision of a custom-built turret.

 

The starting point is a Swarovski scope with a ballistic turret (BT).  There are nine standard models and four illuminated models of BT scopes currently available within the Z3, Z5, or Z6 lineup.  If you already own one, great!  Otherwise, you can purchase one directly from Outdoorsmans (1-800-291-8065).  Then when ordering the ballistic turret, the Outdoorsmans staff will need to know your precise ballistics.

 

Don’t worry if you are not that familiar with all the terms; we will walk you through the process and help you find the needed information.  Armed with this information, we will custom engrave a turret cap with the yardages clearly marked from your zero point out as far as one full revolution of the turret will yield.  This distance will depend on the ballistics of your ammo and desired zero.  For most magnum calibers you can expect to have marks from 200 to as far as 900 yards.
