Totally stumped on what to get my husband for Christmas.. he’s slightly picky lol What is something that I could get that isn’t going to blow the budget?

Whats your budget?

Can you sneak a peak at his bow stuff with out sending red flags? Does he have a favorite archery shop? ( my local keeps track of all your purchases so you could find out things like what arrows he buys and how short he has them cut)

Have you asked him?

He might already have everything he needs if he's got a wife that will use TitsMcgee as a username 😄

If you don't know what type of archery gear he uses and might want then go to your local archery shop and pick up a gift card.

When I put archery, fishing, or hunting gear on a Christmas list I'm very specific and provide links to where it can be purchased. I'd prefer to not have someone like my mother in law trying to figure out what new trail camera, broadhead, arrows, etc I might want. I'd mostl likely end up with the cheapest thing hanging on a rack at the big box store.

Is he primarily a hunter or target archer?

Picking specific items can be tough, without some really good "hints" from him.

Does he have a place to shoot at home? If he does, a new target is always nice. If not, is there a good indoor range in your area? A yearly unlimited membership to shoot as often as he likes would be nice, and you don't have to worry about the right size, color, brand or anything else.

Does he have a place where he works on his bows etc? If so take some pics and we can see what he has and how serious he is. Lots of different levels of hunters/shooters out there. Make sure they are selfies so we can be sure to give an accurate assessment 😜.

If he’s been on here for longer than five years then forget about it, he’s already a gear junkie. Just buy him socks 😂
