ALPS OutdoorZ has introduced a new full-feature hunting chair, termed the High Ridge. A folding chair, based on the same low-profile concept as the ALPS OutdoorZ Vanish and Vanish MC, the High Ridge sports added features that keep the solo turkey hunter in mind.
Integrated into the chair design is a supported fabric side table. Located for easy reach, the table accommodates two slate calls with strikers, a box call, and multiple diaphragm calls. Strategic placement of the table and call slots are intended to keep the calls organized and to minimize hunter movement.
Another feature of the High Ridge chair is a pocket attached to the left-side frame strut. This pocket is designed to hold a Thermacell appliance—a device many turkey hunters use to repel mosquitos and biting insects. Finally, the High Ridge chair incorporates two shotgun shell loops to facilitate reloading.
For more information on this chair, colored in Mossy Oak Obsession camouflage, please visit alpsoutdoorz.com. MSRP: $74.99
Bergara has introduced the Bergara Platinum Stalker, designed for hunters who appreciate the traditional look and feel of a wood stock rifle, but want the stiffness and rigidity that laminate offers.
For hunters seeking a sturdy and spacious elevated platform, a standard tripod or ladder stand often isn't enough. The Quad Pod series from Ol'Man Outdoors offers a solution, featuring the BaseCamp 7-foot Quad Pod (OT-702) and the Fortress Deluxe 12-foot Quad Pod (OT-703).
A response plan in Texas, for implementation if the New World Screwworm parasite crosses the border, was unveiled by U.S. officials late last year and some ranchers are not on board with all the requirements.
If you slog through just one frustrating morning of hunting off the “X,” you’ll learn the biggest spreads and best calling this time of year won’t do a thing to pull ducks toward you.
