New bows, crossbows and broadheads get all of the press, but bowhunters still need quality targets, knives, treestand safety harnesses and scent-reducing accessories, and the aisles of the Archery Trade Association Show were filled with all kinds of new gear. Deer & Deer Hunting’s editors scoured the halls to find innovative bowhunting gear made by Rinehart Targets, ElimiShield, Hunter Safety System, Bear & Son Cutlery, Delta McKenzie Targets and Outdoor Edge Knives. Check out the highlights of the gear that we found.

From creating more cover to adding the right forage with deer food plots, to getting whitetails to move to desired areas, veteran land manager and host of Grow ’em Big, Steve Bartylla, leaves no stone unturned when it comes to deer management and habitat improvement. These are topics certain to raise any hunter’s or property owner’s whitetail and habitat IQ, and are drawn from the expert land manager’s hands-on-experience. Perhaps best of all the concepts Bartylla covers in this vividly illustrated resource can be applied to any property size – from 10 to 1,000 acres. Features include:
• Proven deer and habitat management tactics to attract mature bucks
• In-depth examination of white-tailed deer behavior
• Clear plans of action to initiate habitat- and deer-management strategies
