We work hard for our money, and savvy outdoor manufacturers know this. That’s why many offer sales and discounts. And come November, the frequency of those sales and discounts seem to increase.

Hunting is a gear-layden endeavor. Gear costs money, and in today’s economic climate, money is hard to come by and doesn’t go very far. Don’t fret. If you do your homework, you can stay on top of outdoor sales and discounts.
Some sales are super-short-lived, while others last months. The best way to stay in the know is to sign up for manufacturer newsletters, e-blasts, etc. When items go on sale, they often disappear quickly. You can act fast if you’re one of the first to know. I’ve found that when I sign up for e-mails and texts from a manufacturer, I don’t get spam from them, and I’ve snagged some fantastic deals and gotten great information regularly.
With that noted, here are 10 sales and discounts from some excellent manufacturers going on right now. Be sure to take advantage.
Moultrie EDGE Cellular Trail Camera 2-Pack
Multiple BH contributors have highlighted the excellent functionality and incredible photos and videos Moultrie’s EDGE produces. The camera’s Auto Connect links your cameras to the strongest cellular network in your area without a SIM card swap, and built-in memory means no SD card is needed. Now, for a limited time, you can purchase a pair of Moultrie Edge Cellular cameras for $99. Don’t wait!
Browning Trail Cameras Pro Scout Max Combo w/Solar Panel
As part of Browning Trail Cameras Bow Season Bonanza, you can get a Defender Pro Scout Max cellular camera designed to run on one set of AA batteries for a year and, as an added bonus, a solar pack that provides a constant power source for your camera in the field. All Defender Pro Scout Max images are GPS tagged, the camera showcases a 100-foot detection range, and the it can be activated on AT&T or Verizon.
Muddy Morph Cellular Camera
You have to keep an eye on Muddy. Last year, I knabbed two of the manufacturers’ The Outfitter treestands on a Buy One, Get One special. While the remaining lock-on stands are sold out, Muddy’s running a banger deal on its Morph Cellular Camera, AT&T + Verizon. For $149, you get two of these 26MP Cellular Digital Trail Cameras with 42 LED infrared flash emitters with a 100-foot detection range.
Leupold VX-5 HD … ONE DAY REMAINING
If I had to pick one riflescope for the rest of my days, it would be one of Leupold’s VX-5 HD models. The lenses are ultra-clear, lowlight performance is off the charts, and the dial-to-the-yard CDS dial system is simple and effective. Not to mention that every Leupold VX-5 HD comes with Leupold’s Lifetime Guarantee. If you need one scope to help you conquer all of your hunting dreams, this is it. Sorry, we didn’t get this to you earlier. You have one day to visit a Leupold retailer and save $200 on any VX-5HD. The offer expires November 2.
KUIU Venture 2300
KUIU’s Venture 2300 is designed for scouting and overnight hunts. It is crafted from heavy-duty 500-denier Cordura fabric, and the main compartment horseshoe zip makes it easy to get more oversized items in and out. The empty pack weighs 3.94 pounds, and the internal aluminum and polycarbonate frame adds rigidity and boosts overall durability. The waist belt is adjustable and padded, and zippered hip belt pouches provide storage for need-right-now gear. Right now, KUIU is offering this excellent pack for 50 percent off.
LaCrosse Insulated Alpha Swampfox
I’ve used these waders for the past three seasons. They are warm, waterproof, and extremely tough. I promise I paid more than the current Lacrosse asking price of $172. These waders will go fast, so act faster. The waders fit true to size, and the high-performance 1000G Thinsulate Ultra Insulation keeps you warm. Sure, Realtree’s MAX-5 pattern has been upgraded, but does that mean it doesn’t fool the eyes of migrating fowl? Not at all!
Morrell Targets
I use Morrell Targets year-round. From the High Roller Foam Target to the Transformer Buck to my favorite, the Yellow Jacket MOD Pro. Morrell Targets are well-built, long-lasting, and stop arrows powered by today’s fastest vertical and crossbows dead. When you jump on Morrell’s website, pay attention to the 10 % off tab in the bottom right corner. All you need to do is sign up to receive emails and texts from Morrell, and you’ll get 10 percent off your order.
Sitka Equinox Guard Pant
The doldrums of winter will be over before you know it, and you’ll be back to chasing gobbles. One garment I can’t put a more giant stamp of approval on is Sitka’s Equinox Guard Pant, which is currently 50 percent off. I wore these pants two seasons back on a turkey tour that took me to a Florida swamp and the tick-infested hills of Virginia. Guess what? I didn’t get a tick and didn’t treat the pants or any of my Guard gear with permethrin. All Equinox Guard items are pre-treated with Insect Shield. Guard items also prevent skin exposure and are built with a bite-reduction fabric.
Badlands Gear
I’ve tested numerous Badlands gear, from backpacks to clothing designed for specific big-game pursuits. You will want to enlist for the manufacturer’s 15% off. Click the 15% off tab on the bottom left-hand side of the homepage, fill out the form, and you’ll not only stay informed about new products and killer deals, but you’ll also get 15% off that first order. I recommend the Silens Jacket and Silens Vest.
Browning
The Best There Is just got better. Jump on Browning’s website, sign up for the Browning eNewsletter, and get 20 percent off your first order. Over the past few years, I’ve put the success of many of my hunts in the hands of Browning firearms, clothing, knives, etc. Browning has never let me down!
