EP 289 - GoHunt Apparel Review Update | After a Season Guiding Black Bear Hunts in BC
Tue Jan 20 2026
Four months ago, I gave my first impressions of the new GoHunt apparel lineup. Now, after a full season of guiding black bear hunts in British Columbia, attending a shooting course, and weeks of scouting, I’ve put these pieces through serious abuse.
In this video, I give you my honest, unsponsored, and unfiltered feedback on four key pieces:
• Atmosphere Jacket
• Blackrock Hoodie
• Basin Hoodie
• Approach Hoodie
No marketing hype — just real-world results from months in the field. Some pieces impressed me, others fell flat. If you’re considering GoHunt gear, this review will help you make a smarter decision before dropping your cash.
