Trophy Taker’s new Ulmer Edge broadhead is packed full of
features that expandable broadhead fans will love. First and foremost, the head truly offers field tip accuracy due to the extremely
low flight profile. Upon impact, razor sharp rear deploying blades
create devastating full size entrance holes with maximum penetration. Patent pending blade design engages both blades together
at full cutting diameter while allowing the blades to pivot around
heavy bone. Other features that round out this head include a
bone splitting stainless steel tip, 1.5” cutting diameter, and a blade
retention system that prevents accidental blade deployment in
flight or in your quiver! For those that still aren’t convinced, throw in the fact that the Ulmer
Edge broadhead can be locked in “practice” mode and shot into ordinary broadhead targets
without damaging the blades or the target and you have a broadhead that truly offers it all!
• True field tip accuracy due to extremely low flight profile
• Rear deploying blades for huge entrance holes and maximum penetration.
• Innovative blade engagement allows blades to pivot around heavy bone.
• Practice mode allows the Ulmer Edge to be shot into
standard broadhead targets without damaging blades

deployment in flight and in the quiver.

Easton Carbon Injexion Arrows
If you are looking to pull out all the stops
and get the hardest-hitting arrow money can
buy. If you also want the same ultra-micro diameter performance Olympic archers demand
for downrange kinetic energy and superior
crosswind performance. In the past, conventional broadheads and inserts prevented the
use of target-size micro shafts in bowhunting. Thanks to Deep
Six innovation, you now can get everything you ever wanted
in a high performance hunting arrow.

Wenger Camping Lighters
Much like a Swiss Army Knife, a quality, reliable source of fire is essential to any outdoor adventure. Whether as a source
of heat for cooking or survival or simply just the setting for a night of storytelling, a camping lighter is a “must take”.
All Wenger Camping Lighters are manufactured from high-quality materials and are refillable. Three models (Clava,
Hydor, Asterion) employ Piezoelectric® ignition systems which allow for an air mixture into the fuel before ignition. The
system produces an ultra hot (2000° F!), powerful blue flame that works at high altitudes and in windy and wet conditions.
The Fidis model is equipped with a classic wick flame and an integrated reserve tank. It’s ready for extended use and loyal
service and is perfect for an extended backpacking trip anywhere.
All four models are available in black, chrome satin or red and come equipped with a limited lifetime warranty.
Jetboil Sumo Titanium
The all new Sumo Group Cooking System integrates the all weather Sol burner with the high capacity Sumo Companion Cup, yielding an unmatched blend of power, convenience, and efficiency for the full range of group backcountry cooking chores, from snow
melting to simmering.

groups can enjoy minimal single pot cooking. Versatile Sumo supports a myriad of packing configurations, and is compatible with the
full range of Jetboil accessories. Sumo Titanium Group Cooking System redefines backcountry group cooking performance, with a 1.8
liter titanium FluxRing cooking vessel weighing in at 6.5 ounces and a total system weight of 12 ounces. Designed to fuel your backcountry passion, Jetboil Sumo Ti delivers ultimate performance and reliability in extreme conditions. Will be available online soon.

CamelBak All Clear Water Purification Bottle
The creators of hands-free hydration are once again introducing another
bright idea. The CamelBak All Clear Microbiological UV Water Purifier is a
portable water purification system that takes the worry, hassle and guesswork
out of making water microbiologically safe for drinking – in just 60 seconds.
All Clear features a high-powered ultraviolet light that neutralizes 99.9999
percent of bacteria, 99.99 percent of viruses and 99.9 percent of protozoa. In
three simple steps, users secure the cap, hold the power button down for 2 seconds and rotate the bottle allowing the ultraviolet light technology to destroy
and neutralize waterborne viruses and bacteria. An LCD screen reveals when
the purification cycle is complete and thus when the water is safe to drink.
All Clear is extremely fast, sterilizing 0.75 liters of water in 60 seconds, and
the bulb lasts more than 10,000 cycles – the equivalent of purifying 3 liters
per day for nearly seven years. It is ideally suited for global adventurers,
backcountry enthusiasts, disaster preparedness kits, family camping trips
and everyday situations where water quality is questionable.
Fast/EnergyEfficient:60 seconds per cycle • Energy efficient design purifies 80 cycles per full charge
Easy-To-Use:LCD screen provides critical information • Cycle start, cycle
time, successful cycle completion, battery life, charging status • Simple instructions permanently printed on the bottle

purified
