Tactacam 

The Tactacam DEFEND 360 is a 4G cellular security camera that lets you keep an eye on access points, equipment sheds, cabins, gates or anything else you care about when you’re not there. It uses a 4G connection (no Wi-Fi needed), so you get alerts, live view and photos sent to your phone wherever you have signal. It has pan/tilt/zoom control, solar and rechargeable power, decent night vision and rugged weather resistance, so you can set it up and basically forget it. For hunters who manage land or remote access routes, it’s an easy way to watch pressure and activity all year long without running wires or checking cameras on every trip. 

Grizzly Coolers 

From spring turkey season to fall hunts and camp weekends, Grizzly Coolers are built to take real use. Their hard- and soft-sided coolers keep ice longer than you expect and hold up to getting tossed in the truck or dragged around camp. This year, Grizzly is also rolling out a co-branded NWTF cooler at the 2026 NWTF Convention and Sport Show, giving members a solid, practical piece of gear they’ll actually use. Beyond coolers, Grizzly’s hard-sided deer blinds add another option for hunters looking for durable, long-term setups that work season after season. 

BOG 

Known for its DeathGrip tripods, BOG’s field-ready gear helps hunters stay steady and efficient in the woods. Their tripods, shooting sticks and packs give hunters reliable support, whether turkey hunting in spring or glassing for deer in the fall, offering solid, simple gear built to keep up with hunters. 

MEAT! Your Maker 

MEAT! Your Maker offers the tools you need once the hunt is over. From grinders to slicers and everything in between, their meat processing gear makes turning birds and big game into jerky, sausage or weeknight dinners easy — so you get more out of every harvest. 

Grilla Grills 

Grilla Grills brings outdoor cooking home with rugged pellet grills and smokers that perform season after season. Whether it’s celebrating a successful spring turkey hunt or hosting backyard meals with wild venison, these grills make it easy to enjoy the fruits of your time in the woods. 

Benchmade Knives 

Every hunter needs a knife they can trust. Benchmade’s knives are made in the U.S. and designed for a lifetime of use — perfect for camp tasks, field dressing and everyday carry. Knives like their Taggedout knife are a perfect recommendation for bird hunters; it’s the type of knife that earns its place in your pack for turkey season and every hunt that follows. 

YETI 

From spring turkey season to fall big game and winter waterfowl, YETI gear is built for hunters who live outdoors year-round. Whether it’s keeping drinks cold on long turkey sits, hauling meat after a successful hunt or protecting gear from the elements, YETI delivers rugged performance in every season. 

Muck Boots 

Spring turkey season usually means wet grass, mud and unpredictable weather. Muck Boots keep your feet dry and comfortable when conditions aren’t ideal, and they don’t get put away once turkey season ends. From fall hunts to winter chores, they’re an easy grab. 

Mud River 

If you hunt with a dog, or just spend a lot of time outdoors with one, Mud River makes solid gear for your four-legged companion. With leashes, vests and accessories built for rough use, not the living room, this practical gear will improve your time spent afield.  

StopBox 

Safe storage matters, especially in homes where hunting gear gets used year-round. StopBox offers a quick-access way to secure firearms when they’re not in use. It’s simple, mechanical, and doesn’t rely on batteries or electronics, making it a practical option for those who want secure storage without slowing down access when it counts.
