Rent your premium gear first

As the temperature cools and the leaves start to change, mule deer and elk hunting seasons send many Texans to the West. And, whether sit-and-glass or run-and-gun is your style, chances are you’re thinking about where to go and what gear to pack to snag that trophy buck or bull. 

No matter what your style, though, outfitting with high-end gear is EXPENSIVE!

That’s why you need to zero-in on Big Sky Rentals — a company with an ingenious idea! Rather than shelling out big bucks for a once a year, or maybe even a once in a lifetime hunt, Big Sky will rent you a primo hunting package at about 15 percent the cost of buying it. Or, if you want to try out pricey gear before investing in it — like a high-end Zeiss scope — Big Sky’s got you covered. Then, if you like it, you can even buy it from Big Sky.

What’s more, whether you’re renting one or 100 packages, Big Sky will ship the gear right to you home, office, hotel, Airbnb, lodge or retreat. Gear even comes with a pre-paid return label. When it’s time to come home, you just pack the gear back in its shipping box, slap on the label, and drop it off at UPS.

In addition to hunting gear, Big Sky also rents out top-of-the-line fly-fishing (fresh and salt water) and camping equipment. All of it comes to you at just a fraction of the cost of buying it new. With great brands like Swarovski, Sitka Gear, Simms, G. Loomis, Big Agnes and more.

How did Big Sky come to be? Well, Jay Benjamin, who hails from San Antonio, and Bob Dudzinski were invited to go on a fly-fishing trip in Montana with some higher ups at their company. It sounded great, until they added up the cost of gear for the trip — about $2,500 each. That was quite a chunk of change for a weekend of networking, not to mention the gear might just end up adding to the clutter in their garages. But, it got these two numbers-guys thinking, researching and number crunching.
