DirtNap Gear |
The idea of DirtNap Gear came about as I sat watching another one of my wife's reality shows and dreaming of the Outdoor Channel. With my passion and love of the outdoors and bowhunting, I realized it was time to develop a line of broadheads that performed to the highest standards. |

YETI |
In 2006, we founded YETI Coolers with a simple mission: build the cooler we’d use every day if it existed. One that was built for the serious outdoor enthusiast rather than for the mass-discount retailers. One that could take the abuse we knew we’d put it throughout in the field and on the water. One that simply wouldn’t break. We decided early on that product innovation would come from necessity and firsthand experience – not from market research and data analysis. Today, YETI products perform when it matters most - whether that be an excursion into the remote Alaskan wilderness, chasing redfish on the Gulf coast, or just getting together with friends in the backyard. |

.30-06 Outdoors |
.30-06 Outdoors was formed in 2007 by company owner and founder Matt Minshall. After 20 plus years in the retail end of the industry at his families Archery and Fishing store Matt was ready to try something different. Not wanting to leave the outdoor industry that he knew so well, he decided on the manufacturing side of the industry. Matt sold his beloved fishing boat and some of his musical equipment to raise some startup capital. He then cleaned out his garage and stocked it with the first round of product. As we all know 2008 was the beginning of one of the worst economic times this country has ever seen, but .30-06 Outdoors managed to survive through it and grow. In 2011 .30-06 Outdoors moved into a 5000 sq ft office/ warehouse space. After 3 more expansions, more room was still needed. In 2014 Matt was blessed enough to purchase the entire 47,000 sq ft building that was previously rented. .30-06 Outdoors now has product placement in 10 countries on 3 continents. |

AccuBow |
I'm 26 years old and I have been shooting a bow since I was 10 years old, and bowhunting since I was 13 years old. While I'm an engineer by trade, my true passions lie in archery, bowhunting, and being in the outdoors. I'm sure we can all relate to not having enough time to pursue the hobbies we are truly passionate about. I could never seem to find enough time to make it to the archery range as much as I would have liked to. However, I knew that in order to improve my archery and bowhunting abilities, the practice was necessary! One day, I thought, “If only there was a way I could practice from anywhere without having to fire and retrieve arrow upon arrow….” And so, the idea of the AccuBow was born! |

Iron Will Broadheads |
The pursuit began by analyzing the physics behind every aspect of the shot and reading scientific studies. Current broadhead offerings were researched, purchased, and thoroughly tested. Bill was looking for a broadhead that would achieve maximum penetration, pass through bone undamaged, maintain a razor sharp edge, and fly great at long distances. Every broadhead tested fell short in one or more of these areas. Frustrated with the offerings, he decided to engineer his own broadhead. This started the seven-year process of designing, analyzing, prototyping, testing, and iterating on the design. |

Slash Arrows |
With a SLASH® INsetBlade® Arrow, the 60 grain broadhead with the EXP and the 75 grain broadhead with the MAG,(see features below) at the tip of the arrow enters first, cutting a leading path of destruction. A few inches behind, once the arrow shaft enters, two expandable INsetBlade® Deployable Blades deploy. The INsetBlade® Deployable Blades are aligned so that new tissue is being cut. The total amount of cutting is far greater than any other broadhead and arrow system. |

Treezyn |
Over 30 years of study in environmental surroundings (hunting), fractal research, and natural elements has reached a pinnacle and the result is our camo. Knowing wasn’t enough; application of what we have learned dissecting the woods to create a concealment pattern outside of the industry paradigm was the outcome. We know bigger, bolder, more contrasting elements and textures are crucial to disguising the most recognized silhouette on the planet, a human. Our three-dimensional aspect combined with the digital layout inside the pattern doesn’t allow you to homogenize as you walk away or sit high above in a stand, to put it simply, you don’t become a blob at a distance. |

Wildlife Research Center |
In the late 1950s, two young brothers John and Brian were paid a bounty of 10 cents by their father for every mouse they caught near the outside of their house. The brothers first tried cheese as bait, since mice in cartoons always loved cheese. The results from cheese weren’t as good as expected. Then experiments began with different baits on the mousetraps. The goal was not just to find a bait that worked better than cheese, but to find a bait that the mice really went for and would attract every mouse that went near it. From these humble beginnings the spark was kindled and the earliest foundations laid for what was later to become America’s Top Brand®. |
