If you use an ATV for hunting, these four ATV accessories are going to make your time in the woods a lot easier.

STORAGE

Having somewhere secure to store things like rope, extra ammunition, water, and bags serves two purposes.

1) It keeps everything together. When you are bouncing through the woods, you do not want your supplies to go flying.

2) It frees up other space on your ATV for other things you may want to carry, like a tree stand, a ground blind or another hunter.

WINCH

Most people think of winches when they get stuck. If you field dress larger animals, you will be thankful for a winch. Add some rope. Throw the line over a big tree limb. Winch that 10-point off the ground to save your back and keep dirt off the carcass. If you pay close attention to what you are doing, you can back under the animal and lower it onto a hitch platform or the back of the ATV.

If you have a steep load ramp, winch the ATV up. You don’t have to worry about giving it gas or rolling backward. Once loaded, the winch also helps secure your off road ride.

GUN RACK

Sure, you can sling your rifle or gun across your back and have it beat on you the whole time you are riding. Or, you can secure it in a gun rack so it rides protected from the elements, dirt, mud and the shocks of just moving through the woods.

LIGHTS

Lights are for more than just trying to navigate in the dark. That trophy buck we mention above? By the time you recover him, it is dark. If you want to field dress it now, you need lights. With moveable lights, it doesn’t matter where ol’ Wall Hanger is. You can see what you are doing.
