Whether Dad is an avid bowhunter, deer hunter, or waterfowler, chances are he’ll appreciate some new gear and apparel for his next hunt this Father’s Day (which is June 15, 2025, by the way). From a new Vortex red dot sight to the Sitka hunting jacket pros swear by, we’ve rounded up the best Father’s Day hunting gifts you can shop right now and have delivered in time for the big day.
Moultrie Edge 2 Cellular Trail Camera
Dad can keep tabs on his next buck with one of our favorite cellular trail cameras, which sends instant photos and videos directly to his phone and provides clear imaging in any light conditions. The Edge 2 has a super fast trigger speed, a larger detection range and field of view, and even low-glow flash for improved night vision. The Moultrie app contains tons of helpful insights and features, including unlimited cloud storage for photos and videos, interactive maps and activity charting (so you know the best time to hunt), and remote settings that allow you to control the camera from anywhere.
Yeti LoadOut GoBox 30
If Dad needs a place to keep all his hunting gizmos and gadgets—from ammo to calls—the Yeti LoadOut will do the trick. As tough and durable as a Yeti cooler, it’s dust- and waterproof and provides ample organization space inside.
Sitka VentLite GTX Boots
Sitka stepped into the footwear arena this year with the VentLite GTX boots. We got to test the Sitka boots out in the field and were thoroughly impressed with how comfortable and lightweight they are. They offer plenty of traction on slippery terrain and are completely waterproof, thanks to the full coverage Gore-Tex shell.
Field & Stream Roosevelt Hat
No Dad can have too many hats—it’s a fact. This camo one is one of our top sellers and is named after former US President (and avid outdoorsman) Theodore Roosevelt. It's one of those "wear anywhere" caps Dad will never take off.
Vortex Viper Enclosed Red Dot Sight
One of Vortex's newer releases, the Viper red dot sight is a must-have for any shotgun owner. We had the chance to test it—and it's well worth the money. It looks elegant, has an enclosed design that's durable and keeps out debris, and has exceptional battery life (50,000+ hours!).
Sitka Stratus Jacket
Colder seasons may be a ways away but Dad will love having this warm, wind-resistant fleece Sitka hunting jacket for the fall and winter hunting seasons ahead. It's one of those pieces he can wear on its own during the midseason or as a layer when temperatures drop. One of the coolest features? Special hearing ports in the hood that allow him to hear even the stealthiest deer approaching.
Benchmade Taggedout Knife
Whether he’s skinning, slicing, or quartering, Dad can do all the above with the best knife for field dressing from Benchmade. It has a durable and super sharp stainless steel fixed blade along with an ergonomic handle for maneuverability.
Mystery Ranch Treehouse 38 Pack
We love the Mystery Ranch Treehouse pack, and we bet Dad will, too. It's an especially great gift for deer hunters, as it's designed for hunting from a tree stand, with adjustable straps that wrap around any tree to keep your gear in arm's reach. The soft exterior reduces noise in the woods, while the compression straps on the front are perfect for climbing sticks, bows, anything.
Vortex Diamondback Rifle Scope
Any hunter—Dad included—would be thrilled to unwrap this Vortex rifle scope on Father’s Day. Hundreds of people rave about how clear the water- and fog-proof glass is and how easy the scope is to use and adjust on the go.
Chêne Gear Scout Boot
We’re longtime fans of Chêne Gear, and as soon as Dad puts on these Scout boots, he will be, too. They’re completely waterproof to keep Dad’s feet dry as he slogs through the marsh along with a non-slip sole for superior traction. Comfortable, durable, and long-lasting—what else could he want?
Rux 70L Gear Tote
If Dad's anything like most of us, he has a lot (and we mean a lot) of gear to keep track of. The super rugged Rux 70L is the perfect solution for both storage and transport of said gear. It's weatherproof, built for the elements, and surprisingly lightweight with easy-carry handles. Plus, there's tons of room inside and plenty of customization options for Dad's organizing preferences.
Victorinox Rescue Tool
Equip Dad with all the tools he could need in one convenient package with this Victorinox multi-tool. It has 13 convenient functions, including a razor sharp blade, multiple screwdrivers, and a wire stripper. And, as the name suggests, it's perfect for emergency or survival situations, with a seatbelt cutter, window breaker, and even a shatterproof glass saw.
Pelican V800 Vault Double Rifle Case
If Dad spent hundreds (or thousands) on a fancy new rifle, he needs one of the best cases to protect it. We recommend this Pelican long gun case for its rugged drop- and shock-resistant shell and its customizable foam padding. It can hold two of Dad's prized possessions.
Leupold BX-2 Alpine HD Binoculars
No matter what Dad’s hunting, these top-rated Leupold binoculars will come in handy. Lightweight yet heavy duty, they provide some of the best clarity a pair of binos can deliver and have technology that eliminates glare.
KUIU Pro G3 Bino Harness
With more than 3,000 reviews, the KUIU bino harness is one of the most popular you can buy. Along with comfortable adjustable straps, it has an easy-open lid and a moldable case that will contour to any pair of binoculars.
Field & Stream Cover Print
The dedicated Field & Stream fans among us will appreciate this vintage father-son cover print from the Field & Stream September 1962 issue. You can get the artwork framed or have it printed on canvas, wood, and even metal for Dad to hang proudly on the wall.
Badlands Superday Hunting Pack
Of all the hunting backpacks our experts have used in the field, this one is the best overall. Not only is it compatible with both rifles and compound bows, the padding, adjustability, and contouring make it one of the most comfortable packs.
Maven CRF.1 Rangefinder
Maven makes some of the best hunting optics—and its best-selling rangefinder is no exception. Dad will be impressed by the high quality imaging and 4,500-yard ranging capabilities. You can even get it engraved for a personal touch.
Montana Knife Company Blackfoot 2.0
If Dad doesn’t yet own a knife from Montana Knife Company, Father’s Day is a great time to gift him one. Not only is the Blackfoot 2.0 the brand’s OG blade, it’s also one of founder Josh Smith’s favorite MKC knives. He dubs it the “ultimate do-it-all knife” for everything from hunting to everyday carry. Bonus: It’s American-made.
Lone Wolf Climbing Sticks
For the dad who enjoys hunting out of a tree saddle or stand, he'll need a good pair of climbing sticks. The new Lone Wolf Compact Doubles They're incredibly versatile—you can use them as single or double steps—and they anchor easily onto trees for solid footing. Just as importantly, they're stackable and packable.
Wicked Ridge Raider 400 Crossbow
Whether Dad’s been hunting with a crossbow for years or just getting into it, this Wicked Ridge crossbow is one of the best crossbows our experts have tested because it’s easy to cock, compact for carrying, and fast.
Field & Stream Membership
Here’s what Dad will get with a Field & Stream 1871 Club membership: the brand new Field & Stream Journal delivered to his doorstep twice a year, a sweet members-only hat, exclusive discounts and VIP access to new products and experiences, and oh-so-much-more. He’ll love it, promise.
Stanley Classic Legendary Bottle
Available in three camo patterns—along with a handful of solid colors—this stainless steel Stanley mug is just what Dad needs to keep his coffee hot while he’s sitting in the stand.
Field & Stream Music Fest Tickets
Every hunter—and especially every dad—needs some time to kick back and let loose. For that, gift him tickets to the first ever Field & Stream Music Fest happening this October in Winnsboro, South Carolina. He can jam out to some of country music’s biggest stars (including Riley Green, Eric Church, and even Lynyrd Skynyrd) and participate in a whole host of other outdoor activities, from sporting clays to off-road adventures.
Stone Glacier Sky 5900 Pack
Stone Glacier packs are easily some of the best out there, and the Sky 5900 is the brand’s most popular. Made in the USA with the most durable and highest quality materials, it weighs just over 5 pounds yet can hold up to 150 pounds with its unique integrated load shelf design. It’s well worth the splurge for any dad who goes on long backcountry hunts.
Work Sharp Guided Field Sharpener
One of the best knife sharpeners, this Work Sharp pick will likely become one of Dad’s favorite tools. It’s small enough to carry in the field and can quickly sharpen everything from pocket knives to fishing hooks (if he’s an angler, too).
