Official TA Outdoors T-Shirts and Hoodies: https://taofficial.com/ The reason I have not done many long solo overnight bushcraft and camping trips lately is because I have spent the last 6 months waiting for the release of Official TA Outdoors Clothing and Merchandise. The first T shirt design is out and you can get your T-shirts

Justin Mastine-Frost 05.19.21 Looking for the “best tactical knife”? Like a lot of these categories we have covered lately, there’s a lot to unpack when it comes down to answering what makes the best tactical knife, not to mention what is or isn’t a tactical knife in the first place. For starters, the intent of the
Derrek Sigler 05.18.21 The sun just came up and the mist is still rising off the lake. You’ve already launched the boat and motored across to that stretch of weeds that leads up to the drop that you hit every time you fish this lake. You drop the trolling motor and get to work. It’s going
Luke Cuenco 05.13.21 For some, fishing is more than a sport, it’s a legitimate way to put food on the table and enjoy the fruits of your labor. However, casting and keeping track of multiple lines is hard to do without a dedicated group of people aboard. That is why Millennium Marine has introduced the Rod
A short Bushcraft video on how to start a fire using Birch Bark and a ferro rod. One of the best ways to start a fire in the rain or wet conditions. Silver Birch bark has a high content of oil and when the surface is scraped with a knife it produces fine dust particles
Luke Cuenco 05.14.21 Let’s face it. Many of us can’t wait to get out and will be venturing out of our office caves and heading out into the wilds of the big spinning blue-green marble we all live on. While traveling is relaxing and a great way to break up the year, you never know what
Trent Marsh 05.14.21 For most of us, our first real step into the shooting sports was when we graduated from the BB gun, to the .22LR rimfire rifle. We’ll always be nostalgic for that first day behind the trigger of our first real gun, where the groundwork was laid for years of safe, accurate shooting in
Derrek Sigler 05.12.21 Just about all of us have a shotgun or three in the gun safe. These versatile firearms work well for many situations and are a great tool for hunting. We all have our favorite shotguns and the reasons why we like them are even more varied. While there are plenty of specialized shotguns
Luke Cuenco 05.04.21 Concealment is paramount when you’re out and about in public with a firearm. As cool as it may sound to walk around with your carry piece at your side ready to go at a moment’s notice, I personally feel open carry only invites trouble and increased risk for the average citizen. For one,
Trent Marsh 05.03.21 Aside from your weapon and your clothing, your hunting pack is probably the next most important piece of gear you can take on a hunt. Without it, it’s tough to get the rest of your gear into the woods, after all. Choosing a pack is a lot like choosing clothes. Just because a
Derrek Sigler 05.11.21 There are two kinds of anglers out there – those that are strictly catch and release, and those who like to bring home some of their catch for a tasty dinner. No offense to the former, but I definitely fall into the carnivore category. I love to eat fish. And for those of
Derrek Sigler 05.07.21 We all use batteries for some part of our daily life, whether it’s your cell phone, car, computer or more. Batteries are everywhere, including your fishing boat. Deep Cycle batteries are what you need to run your boat’s trolling motor and other accessories. There are several different types of deep cycle marine batteries
Luke Cuenco 05.07.21 Slings are an often-misunderstood accessory by many shooters and probably for good reason – we aren’t used to carrying our rifles for long periods of time. Those in the military are properly trained to field such items and I personally had the opportunity to learn some great ways that a sling can go
Luke Cuenco 05.05.21 It has taken me a long time to truly understand the value of a flash hider when it comes to shooting modern sporting rifles like the AR-15. Since I am not finding myself in frontline combat, the thought of needing to hide the flash of my rifle hadn’t really weighed much on me
