Why a UTV?

UTVs can be invaluable hunting tools, from the extra cargo storage and potential for carrying game to the truck to the scouting you can do with it. You’ll know everything you need to know about your hunting grounds with a UTV to get you around!

The Right Gear

First, make sure your UTV has all the right features. Not many will come with all of these built-in, so some may need to be aftermarket upgrades:
A gun scabbard for safe, secure gun storage
A winch to help move game or get the UTV unstuck
A dedicated GPS that doesn’t use your phone battery or rely on cell signal

The Right Presence

Of course, UTVs aren’t known for being subtle, sneaky machines. If you’re taking one hunting, you’ll want to try to get it a matt camouflage paint job. You’ll also need to quiet the engine a bit. The first step there is to take good care of the UTV, since dirty or aging parts can make more noise. Second, remove or secure any loose metal to prevent excess rattling and try installing soundproofing materials like rubber. There are also some more aftermarket add-ons that can silence or reduce the sound of your exhaust system.
