Welcome to Basin & Range Outdoors

Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure... than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat. ~Theodore Roosevelt

Basin & Range Outdoors was created to share the adventures experienced by two brothers in the American West. From the highest alpine terrains to the lowest sonoran deserts we will chronicle the pain and triumph that accompanies all of our outdoor pursuits.

There will be no high-fence hunts, no fly fishing lodges, no streamside caviar and wine breaks. Instead, you can expect cold nights sleeping in the dirt, flat tires on old trucks, and big dreams realized on small budgets. With Basin & Range Outdoors you will find useful reviews of hunting and fly fishing products, techniques, locations, and a general review of our outdoor expeditions on public land.

B.R.O. Contributor, Tate Bare, Goes Native for His New Hoyt Maxxis

Tate recently picked up his new all black Hoyt Maxxis. And he is stoked.!!! Because he is left handed and wanted an all black bow he had to wait two weeks for Hoyt to build the bow. It was worth the wait! This is one of the best looking and best shooting bows any archer would be lucky enough to draw.


Tate's new setup includes:

Hoyt Maxxis 35
