Ok, time for ideas. Let's eliminate knives, broadheads, arrows, flashlights, headlamps. What do you have that makes a difference that would be a good gift. What you
would you like...never know who will read this. Oh, keep it in the hunting and outdoor category.
-
Got all things you listed, but can always use more tapered Maple shafts. Check produce review for a great headlamp.
:campfire:
-
Thermacel
Wool socks
Ferrolcium rod and striker
-
Good thermal underware. The elastic waste always seems to ware out too soon.
-
Compass, hats, face masks, gloves, tree steps, hang on stand, ladder stand.
-
Japanese wet stone for sharpening Knives and broad heads.
-
What would I like:
- Used, but properly functioning SpinRite cresting machine
- DarnTough wool socks...love them and can't get enough
- Another Bitz Jig with right helical clamp
- Arrow components (.400 gold tips, 100gr inserts, fletchings, heads, etc)
- a large black beavertail to do a grip wrap and sheath insert with
Other great gift ideas:
- handmade leathers - gloves, tabs, arm guards, quivers, etc
- targets

- literature - back issues of periodicals and/or a variety of good books
- hunting trips - doesn't even have to be fancy or expensive
- fishing equipment/tackle - pretty much everyone I know that likes to hunt doesn't mind a day fishing too
- knives
- high performance flashlights
-
Trail cameras. Gift certificates to 3Rivers, Cabelas, any vendor here, etc.
-
Quality handcrafted wooden grunt calls.

A ground blind chair that I can sit in comfortably for 10 hrs

Some cheap suggestions:
Wooden predator calls/rabbit squeal/squeakers.
Additional arrow holders for a head or judo (Piggy back grippers)
A RADA sharpener
Extra rubber tip protectors
String silencers
Extra strings

As I've aged, I grown to appreciate consumables as gifts.
A bottle of Good Sippin' Whiskey would be enjoyed for long time.
