Hunters are very hard to buy a gift for; a great deal of the equipment needed by and used by a hunter is purchased to accommodate personal taste. With the wide proliferation of guns and ammunition that is available, only the individual hunter is aware of what his exact requirements are.
When you are faced with buying gifts for hunters it makes sense to focus on something which is unique, in many cases something that has not even been thought of by the hunter himself.
The common denominator when it comes to hunting gear seems to be ruggedness and the ability to work under any and all conditions. Many people, especially those that do not enjoy the sport of hunting may think it all happens on beautiful, sunlit days; nothing could be further from the truth. A great deal of hunting happens on gloomy, overcast days or days when it is pouring with rain or in blizzard conditions. Under these circumstances the hunter will certainly appreciate the gift of light.
Handheld flashlights are popular and available in every outfitters or hardware store. Although a handheld flashlight gives ample light the problem lies in the name itself; it must be held in the hand. Hunting is a sport that requires two hands for everything; the weapon is carried in two hands, it takes two hands to aim and shoot and it takes two hands to haul the game out of the woods, back to the campsite.
Often it is necessary to clean the game towards the end of the day, one again, to clean and prepare the game properly, two hands are required. What is the solution?
For years it has been possible to purchase lights that are worn on the head, held in place by awkward webbing that really doesn’t do the job of holding the light in the desired position. This type of light requires reasonably heavy batteries, not the ideal solution when your head is not level, the moment you look down the lamp slides forward, down the forehead. Ideal gifts for hunters is a light that is worn on the head but, eliminating the problems associated with a heavy light held in place by webbing.
Any hunter would appreciate a cap, especially one that increases camouflage with the added benefit of a built in light source. Modern LED technology and long life lithium batteries make the ideal combination, as the hunter moves his head, the light travels with him, illuminating exactly what he is looking at or working on.
Buying gifts for hunters is not always easy as so much of the equipment that is used is very personal. A unique gift that will be appreciated for years is a reliable light source that can be worn on the head.
