What a great video! With the recent drop of the $500 UV arrows and $1300 Peax tipi it’s nice to see some gear content for people who don’t hunt for a living. Really appreciate you guys and the Hunting Public guys for relating to the 99%.
Awesome job guys! 3 years ago you inspired me to get out and try it, and your right, once i did it, heard my first bugle, got my first bow draw on a bull, i fell in love! I started with budget gear, and have slowly up graded, and although i haven’t gotten a elk yet, i look forward to just being out in the wilderness of the west every September. Thank you! And god bless!
Awesome job guys, you guys are starting to be very transparent. Be the working man’s hunting show. With our business building archery targets we want everyone to be able to buy good quality built targets that will last as long you want.
Great video. IMO the $25 dollar socks from Darn Tough, Duckworth, Filson, etc are totally worth it. 100% wool gives me less blisters, less stink, less athlete's foot, etc. I don't see a downside to them except the cost, but by the time you get outfitted with everything else, the damage has already been done.
Great work guys, thanks for reminding us it's not about having the most expensive gear or the next new thing. "Headlamps are like fishing boats, you just need a friend with one." Love it! 🤣 Meat bags, got them, used them, love them.
Great video. It’s not to often you see content creators telling you how to save money in the hunting industry. I think you guys nailed it where you do need to spend for better gear.
Great information guys!! Really appreciate you sharing this!! More people need to know its not a fashion contest!!! Also a pair of pants that have been amazing are the wrangle mountain atg pants!! $30! Good job guys!
@@codymccarthy47 these are great pants. Have about 4 pair. Wear them out scouting and look good enough you can throw on a decent shirt and wear them around town for casual
Just FYI camofire has discounted stuff which is already discounted a lot of the times from the main brands. If say there are boots for discount, go to the brand and double check it might be the same discount but you might get free shipping while camofire charges shipping
Great video guys! I found a USB headlamp (with night lamps) from Bushnell (I bought an extra battery pack - Boy Scout), AND the battery pack format exactly fits two AA batteries. They've got both options covered.
Great video. Just wanted to say that base layers can also generally be found on sale. I often find smartwool and icebreaker shirts for $25-30 and they are great quality.
This helped me so much! Preparing for my first elk hunt and didn’t want to drop thousands in clothing that I am not sure I need. Plan to build my inventory as I progress and learn what is needed.
I've always had a hard time finding good, waterproof, and budget friendly gear for western oregon. Why don't you guys start a hunting clothing line, designed for wet oregon weather
@@brandonwilliams8539 Helly Hansen Impertech. It’s not breathable but guess what when it’s raining hard no rain gear is. And the stuff is waterproof and tough.
Ditto for HH Impertech...it's been my go-to for late season blacktail treestand sits for nearly 20 years. Let it rain baby - you will be dry as long as you don't work up a sweat getting to your stand. If nothing else, it forces you to move slowly, which is what you should be doing anyway 👌
Great video fellas, once in a lifetime bull hunt started this week. I'm pinching pennies everywhere i can. That said, I've been looking for you bags since i drew the tag. I hope they're back in stock soon!
Thank you BRO I only need a few things! One easy way too is for Christmas, Birthday or holiday ask for gift cards. That is how I have gotten the majority of my hunting items.
Inreach is worth it. I’ve never had an issue with the service working and it gives huge peace of mind. It’s also a backup GPS if your phone dies. On that note, portable battery charger is a necessity as far as I’m concerned. I use a cheap Anker from Amazon and it’s been ultra reliable. Used solar rechargeable once and it was a pain and never fully recharged.
another costco hack.. you do NOT need a membership.. have someone buy you or order one online a costco giftcard they will let you shop with that. the guys I know that have everything is the Bro Crew, what y'all doing with your old first lite gear?? LOL!
I love the wrangler outdoors pants. $20-30 a pair and I beat the hell out of them. They have multiple weights. I rock Merrell boots. Like $140 a pair for good gortex hikers.
if your katadyn freezes it loses its ability to filter to its original specs , it still works as a particulate filter though , just throw a puritab in after filtering through it to be safe.
I ended up going with the Wrangler pants from Walmart but might have to get to get those Costco ones. Would you still wear these pants on days where there is wet conditions but no actual rain?
will we see the whole team together this year on an elk hunt, it's so cool to see you all together even if half the team goes left and the other goes right. it's just fun to see you all together.
You guys have really gotten on board with teaching about budget shopping ,but shopping @ your store is around the same priceline as First Lite Gear.. A no pocket T with single logo on it 30$.. The hats as well crazy backwards advice . But all with simple minds only follow ..lol. still love you guys from 2014. You should try watching some of that old content . B4 industry took over sight.
3 kids , single income , mortgage , bills , food , school expenses etc etc etc ... milsurp gear and walmart stuff is all i can reasonably justify buying to hunt , hasn't stopped me being successful and i live in canada and hunt regularly in anything from early september high 90*F temps down to -25 and colder in late november.
For boots i wear my timberland hikers if u watch your sales get em for 90bucks ....then i wear em out for roofing bout a month before season grab a new pair break em in on roofs 😂
Great video, all love here but the title is misleading. “Under 1000 dollars” then the price list at the end 1,757… it was all cheap good gear but that’s in fact not under 1000, nothing wrong with that other than the title, gear cost what it cost and you made it almost as cheap as possible you just should’ve titled it under 2k 🤷♂️
Cool video…. Wanted to joke the big guy for talking over the other guy every step of the way. And then they’d stumble and bumble over each other at times. Bless him. I would have said cut and I’ll do the video by myself just leave not even 5 minutes in. 😂
Bows, boots, pants are one of them things that not one fits all. I bought an RX 5 but knowing and feeling that the Torrex fit and shot better for me. I’m an happy that you guys did this and not just push what sponsors you. Real turn off for me big names pushing high end stuff. Not saying some stuff not worth it. I myself have a mut of the big three being sitka firstlite kuiu. You get the 🤌🤌🤌

Y’all should do these type of videos live!! It would really benefit a live QA for big game prep stuff like it

What a breath of fresh air! Great video guys. It's so easy to get wrapped up in the super expensive gear rabbit hole!
Looking forward for the next videos keep it up! Counting down the days till sept 7th, here in Washington. Goodluck to everyone hunting this season.
Very awesome video. I’m really glad that you guys can do stuff like this now that you’re not with first lite
Camofire is a daily sale on hunting/outdoor items that has great deals.

@@dakotamungall3546 good to know, thanks.
Trent is awesome! Love his honesty😂😂😂

I’m a believer and having good equipment. This is exactly what is needed. People think u need high end stuff. But you don’t.
This helped me so much! Preparing for my first elk hunt and didn’t want to drop thousands in clothing that I am not sure I need. Plan to build my inventory as I progress and learn what is needed.
Glad to hear it helped!
Very Helpful video. Love the focus on the items not to skimp on. Thanks!
Great episode! Enjoyed your take on the budget gear, informative and great work!
Totally agree with bow setup works in the east as well as it does out west
Great info guys! Keep up the educate, inspire and entertain!
Costco pants for the win!!
I've always had a hard time finding good, waterproof, and budget friendly gear for western oregon. Why don't you guys start a hunting clothing line, designed for wet oregon weather
Great idea. I second this
I've had good luck with military surplus gortex
Preach on

Thanks guys! I drew a bighorn tag in Montana and have nothing so have been looking for a budget list.
Great budget soft shell is the Columbia Ascender jacket, way more wind proof than any "hunting" soft shell i ever owned. Plus under $40
The videos this week have been excellent!
merino wool underwear is a must!! Just like the shirt It’s a game changer.
Can’t wait for the hunt videos this year!
Thank you BRO I only need a few things! One easy way too is for Christmas, Birthday or holiday ask for gift cards. That is how I have gotten the majority of my hunting items.
Awesome video guys ! Great job with budget breakdown !
Great topic and approach for saving a few coins...Thanks Born and Raised!!!
Great video and information, guys!
Just the video I needed really! I already have my list going!
Absolutely genius episode! What a great concept.
Very nice honest review! What is the bag liner brand? Thanks
I'm curious about the bag liner as well. I don't know what to get because of all the differences out there.
Do you guys carry a garmin inreach or something along that way for emergencies ?
Inreach is worth it. I’ve never had an issue with the service working and it gives huge peace of mind. It’s also a backup GPS if your phone dies. On that note, portable battery charger is a necessity as far as I’m concerned. I use a cheap Anker from Amazon and it’s been ultra reliable. Used solar rechargeable once and it was a pain and never fully recharged.
We all use Inreach or somewhere
I would also add a satellite communication device for safety. At least one in the group for emergencies
Some good tips. Thanks!
Great video. Looking forward to the upcoming hunting video. Best of luck gentlemen

Thanks for a great video breaking things down on a budget
Do a video comparing hunting clothing! (Sitka, First Lite, ETC.)
There are many many many hunting companies that make merino shirts.. not to mention non-hunting outdoor companies that do.
very interesting, especially the clothing options
Great video. Thank you gentlemen.
I love the wrangler outdoors pants. $20-30 a pair and I beat the hell out of them. They have multiple weights.

Would you still wear these pants on days where there is wet conditions but no actual rain?
Seems like the Costco membership pays for itself! Ill be on the lookout for those socks and stuff.
i buy everything at least 40 % off. i own nothing but badlands as far as packs binos and clothing and gear. if it ant on sale im not buying it
@@GrowinwithAJ I love badlands. Just got a mrk 6 pack for 199. Looking forward to try it out
@@gregsonner8838 i own the vario sysyem and its awesome. i done a elk hunt this past september and it was awesome.
@@gregsonner8838 thats a good deal
@@gregsonner8838 i have the vario system and love it.
Are you guys going to do a review on all the different clothing gear you tried? Sitka, kuiu, and such?
Who doesn't want to save a few buck? Great video, guys!
Any word on when the meat bags will be restocked?? Thanks for all the good info fellas.
will we see the whole team together this year on an elk hunt, it's so cool to see you all together even if half the team goes left and the other goes right. it's just fun to see you all together.
Yep!
You can find the the Big Agnes Copper Spur UL 2 on sale every 4-6 weeks for under $300. Versatile tent that doesn’t break the bank
Great call

That’s what we love to hear!
How would you adjust the list for late October and into November elk? We're headed to Colorado in 60 days.
Can't go wrong with the old muzzy 3 blade broadheads
For boots i wear my timberland hikers if u watch your sales get em for 90bucks ....then i wear em out for roofing bout a month before season grab a new pair break em in on roofs 😂
I love gear!
Don’t forget a hi point 10mm for predator protection 😂. On a budget right?! Should work for at least one shot
When are the meat bags going to be back in stock
Tent?
You said your not with First Lite anymore ? Do you like something better? Did you have some problems ?
We are wearing every brand hoping to bring honesty about all the gear items that work best for us
Should get sponsored by Costco 😊
Why aren’t you with first lite anymore?
Clothing review coming soon?
Back to your roots - hunting for everyone! Just get out there.
There’s body odor and there’s BO. Merino wool ain’t stopping BO. 😮
Can you guys please go collaborate with Ranch Fairy please. I think you guys would have a great time.
Our ancestors did not have expensive gear. God bless.
I’m with Trent. No gloves for breaking down an animal
Where can I get a discount tag?😂
knife sharpener.......but no knife? Don't worry we can borrow Steve's!!!
$69 for a budget t-shirt? Surely you can do better than that. And black ovis has the ovis ultralight pro game bag elk set for $85.

Wrangler Utility stretch pant from walmart smokes pretty much every option out there.
