The Revolution knows that you work hard for your money and that testing new hunting and fishing gear in the lobby of your local Cabela's just doesn’t cut it when it comes time to drop some coin. So Jim, Trav and Mrs. Bunny, each week, put the industry's best new outdoor products to the test as they rank them in their Buy or Bust segment. They aren't in to cheap gimmicks, they don't care about what's sexy, they just want dependable gear at reasonable price and nothing else.
There is no better way to make the most of every coyote hunt than to use a quality e-caller. While hand calls have their place, the reality is that e-calls offer so much in the way of variety and realism that they take the guesswork out of calling and allow hunters of any skill level to call in coyotes. There are a lot of e-callers available in a variety of different price points, but hunters have to pay close attention to what they are purchasing to make sure they are getting the most bang for their buck. Caveats like short remote range, inadequate speaker(s), unrealistic sounds and more can put you at a disadvantage in the field. On this installment of Buy or Bust we’ll look at Lucky Duck e-callers, specifically The Revolution E-Caller, and highlight what makes this one of the best choices out there for enticing coyotes and other predators alike.
Christmas is almost here, the giving season is upon us and it’s that time of year where a good portion of the country is walking around with so much holiday spirit that you’d think they ate one too many candy canes. Take a page out of their book, cloak yourself with the Christmas Spirit, grab a glass of eggnog and finish your shopping.

According to the National Shooting Sports Foundation, more than 50 million people enjoy sport and target shooting activities in the United States. These numbers don’t just reflect the interest adults have in shooting sports but also the growing popularity of youth shooting sports as the number of active participants continues to grow in high school, college and extracurricular youth teams. Shooting sports are a great hobby, a good way to spend time with friends and family and a productive way to build a useful skill set.
Chances are the average hunter doesn’t have a room dedicated entirely to processing wild game. After the shot, hunters need a place they can safely hang and process their harvests in a clean and sanitary environment. While you may not have a commercial butcher room/cooler in your garage, it’s not difficult to create a suitable space if you have the right gear.
Let’s talk skivvies! Wait, what?
On this edition of Buy or Bust we’re stripping it down to the base layers! While we all spend a lot of time and money on our camo outer shell that we rely on in the field to conceal us and shield us from the elements, it’s important to remember that base layers play an important role in dressing for success while hunting. In reality, base layers may not be all that important in warmer climates, however when you introduce moisture, wind and cool temperatures to any hunting scenario, base layers automatically prove their usefulness. There are plenty of options out there, but for today we’re focusing in on practical and affordable base layers, no frills, they just do exactly what they are supposed to - keep you warm.
It isn’t officially fall until you see blaze orange hats and vests on the dashboard of trucks and dog boxes in the back. It’s upland hunting season and all across the country hunters are putting on the miles in the fields and brush to scare up some birds. So, on this week’s edition of Buy or Bust we’re talking upland hunting gear with the Cabela's Instinct Prairie Runner Upland Jacket.
Every hunter understands the value of having good boots, you put a lot of miles in and you need something comfortable. Your feet are important tools in your hunt, just as your bow or gun, and if your boots fit poorly it can make a hunt miserable. In the same vein, having dry feet inside those boots is equally important. That’s why, on this installment of Buy or Bust, we’re turning you on to a cost-effective solution for drying out your wet boots and waders in no time – the Cabela's Boot and Wader Dryer by Peet®.
Open up your gun safe and take a look around. Is it tidy and well organized or could it use some attention? This week on Buy or Bust we have an easy $20 fix for cleaning up and taking care of the contents in your safe, check out the Cabela’s 7-Piece Safe Accessory Kit.
