The hottest hunting market is no secret: women.

 

Ladies are heading afield in record numbers nowadays, especially after manufacturers started providing women with specialized gear and apparel to stay comfortable and successful. As a result, the volume of Realtree camo-covered women’s hunting equipment has grown considerably. Let’s look at some of the best women’s items for 2016.

 

ScentLok Nexus Base Layers in Realtree camo: ScentLok said these odor-control products revolutionize layering apparel. The company identified areas of the human body with an extensive range of motion and odor hotspots for the upper and lower body. Nexus combines strategically placed Carbon Alloy odor-adsorption technology with ScentLok’s Gold+ Alloy odor-prevention system, which controls bacteria at the atomic level. ScentLok added Coolcore technology — a permanent, nonchemical moisture-management system — to midweight garments. The series features three weights: Active, Summit and Arctic.

 

 

Benjamin Pioneer Air Bow: This entry created a new category of big-game weapon, as it fires full-length arrows and broadheads driven by air. The Airbow is based on Benjamin’s PCP platform. You can cock and decock it with two fingers, and it fires eight shots at 450 fps in the time it takes to fire three shots from a crossbow. It doesn’t require the maintenance involved with crossbows, and canting doesn’t affect its accuracy.

 

 

Limbsaver LS Hunter Pro 7.5-inch bow stabilizer: This is a 7.5-inch version of Limbsaver’s LS Hunter stabilizer. It has a carbon-fiber frame that knocks out noise and hand shock, and a NAVCOM technology (noise- and vibration-control material) broadband enhancer that helps neutralize vibration to reduce bow jump and improve balance.

 

 

X Factor Outdoors Xtreme Tac HS tactical stabilizer: The Xtreme Tac HS combines X Factor’s patented Shock Block with a new aluminum shell featuring SDV technology. The 6-inch HS Light weighs 8.5 ounces, and the 6-inch HS Heavy weighs 10.5 ounces. By adding an Xtreme picatinny rail, you can use an action camera or other accessories.

 

Apex Accu-Strike XS archery sight: The XS combines the favorite features of Apex’s Accu-Strike models. It features an adjustable level and reversible-bracket design to allow a wide range of adjustments. The sight adapts to fit your needs, as the available Opti-Choice Pin Selector lets you select pin illumination, an individual pin or all pins at the same time. The XS has extra-long fibers for maximum brightness, precision dovetail windage adjustment, a reversible bracket for greater versatility and special light location for more effective light distribution to the fibers.

 

 

Hoyt PowerMax bow: The PowerMax mixes technology, performance, style and value. Powered by the new PowerMax Cam & 1/2, this sleek bow features a Split-Limb design on a Hoyt TEC riser to create a light, hard-hitting rig. It features a streamlined TEC-Lite riser, a comfortable Pro-Fit Grip, Limb Shox and Stealth Shot to keep the rig quiet, and rotating cam modules that allow easy adjustment without module replacement or a bow press.

 

 

Bear Torrix FFL crossbow: The Torrix FFL combines speed, efficiency, balance and adjustability. It features a Forward Facing Limb design that moves the weight of the bow between your hands, providing a more comfortable, balanced shooting platform. The crossbow has a 125-pound draw and fires bolts at 355 fps. Its compact design lets you maneuver it in a blind or stand, and it features a picatinny rail from the trigger to the front of the bow to let you mount the fore-grip where you want it.

 

 

 

Bushnell’s Trophy binoculars: Providing industry-leading clarity, these waterproof, fogproof, armor-plated binoculars are also built for durability. They feature BaK-4 porro prisms, fully multi-coated lenses and new objective lens covers that stay in place. All four models — 10x28, 8x32, 8x42 and 10x42 — have two-step eyecups for improved fit and comfort.

 

 

Moultrie White Flash incandescent cameras: The White Flash uses powerful xenon strobe flash, has a 50-foot detection range and features a trigger speed of less than one second. Featuring an easy-to-use interface with password protection, the camera’s Quick Start mode allows simple setup, and its backlit menu buttons make low-light operation easy.

 

 

Prois Galleann Realtree Camo Rain Suit: This line of light, packable rain jackets and pants features a technologically advanced system to keep ladies warm and dry afield. Named for the Gaelic word for storm, Gallean garments are made of 100 percent polyester 20,000/10,000 laminate and are breathable, silent and waterproof. The jacket and pants pack into their own pocket for easy transport. They feature taped seams, snap-down sliders and fully waterproof zippers. The jacket has a hood with an exterior drawstring, and the pants have detachable cordura gaiters to secure your boots and help reduce moisture around the boot and ankle.

 

 

Under Armour Scent Control Field Women’s Hunting Pants in Realtree Camo: These stylish, functional pants use Under Armour’s Scent Control technology to trap and suppress odor afield, and their Moisture Transport System wicks away sweat to keep you dry and light. The pants fit next to your skin without squeezing, and their stretch fabric provides great ease of movement. They come with a side zip pocket and low cargo pocket placement for bulk reduction.

 

 

Under Armour Brow Tine boots: Loaded with features, these boots are designed for hardcore women hunters. Available in 400- or 800-grain PrimaLoft-insulated models, the Brow Tine has a durable full-grain leather upper with synthetic insets for lightweight breathability. Its ColdGear Infrared lining absorbs and retains heat to keep you warmer, and it comes with a breathable, waterproof Gore-Tex lining and a tough rubber toe bumper for extra protection afield. The boot has a molded Ortholite sock liner, lightweight TPU shank for support and stability, and an aggressive traction rubber outsole designed to grip while shedding mud and debris.

 

Tenzing TZ1215W backpack: Tenzing realizes that women need a pack constructed for their contour and comfort. Enter the TZ1215W, which has the most comprehensive array of features in any woman’s backpack. The TZ1215W has 1,215 cubic inches of space but weighs just 2 pounds, 6 ounces. It features nine compartments, including a water reservoir pocket, a fold-out rain cover and a bow- and gun-carrying boot.
